Abstract
Based on analytic and numerical investigations of chaotic vibrations and quasiperiodic rotations of the Froude pendulum, we present a sufficient condition for controlling chaos by means of a weak resonant excitation as the initial phase difference ψ varies. It is shown via the Melnikov function method that the initial phase difference ψ plays a vital role in suppressing or inducing chaotic motions or quasiperiodic rotations.
