This site, provided by the University of Nijmegen, presents an applet simulation of a system of two pendula coupled by a spring, along with a "Lecture-room" that provides the theoretical background. The lengths, masses, and initial angles of the pendula can be adjusted. The site produces an animation of their displacements, which facilitates a qualitative explanation of the motion.
