Help with an object, swinging from an elastic rope

| Been googling and code-archiving for this, but nothing yet. I need a prod in the right direction: the algorithms needn't be perfect, a quick-n-dirty solution that looks convincing enough is fine. I need a formula/algorithm for an object swinging from an elastic rope with variable elasticity. Anyone know a place I can do reading up on this? |

| I'd suggest searching for a suitable physics engine, as I suspect there won't be a "quick'n'dirty" solution for this.. Atleast not if you're going to have (variable) elasticity on the rope. |

| There are two potential topics to search for that. Either particle based physics ("atom physics") or classical mechanics / newtonian physics But I agree with LarsG, check the boards, there are several wrapper to well known physics engine and even some from ground up selfwritten ones. |
