Cartpole System Analysis
The cartpole system (Fig. 1) consists of a cart of mass M moving along a frictionless track, and a
pendulum of mass m and length 1 pivoting around the cart. The mass of the pendulum is assumed
to be equally distributed along the rigid rod. The system is actuated by a horizontal force F applied
to the cart.
