Toy Physics - Part 3: Waddling Duck

Dr. Dave and Dr. Tom explain the physics of a wooden waddling duck toy involving friction, impact, energy transfer, and dynamics.

This toy was purchased at: http://www.eurotoyshop.com

A technical analysis can be found in the technical paper:
Leine, R.I., Van Campen, D.H and Glocker, Ch., "Nonlinear dynamics and modeling of various wooden toys with impact and friction", Journal of Vibration and Control, Vol. 9, pp. 25-78, 2003.
