You need to randomize the control initial value, not the name of the symbol associated to the control. Perhaps this is what you want: Manipulate[ With[{f = Table[c[i], {i, n}], controls = Sequence @@ Table[{{c[i], s[i]}, -1, 1}, {i, n}]}, Manipulate[f, controls, Button["Random", Do[s[i] = RandomReal[{-1, 1}], {i, n}]]]], {n, {3, 4, 5}}, ...

you could start with a simple hack of your code to extract the intersections; Something like {x1, y1} = Transpose[line]; {x2, y2} = Transpose[RotateLeft[line]]; gr2 = {(x1^2 - x1*x2 + y1*(-y1 + y2)), (y1 - y2)} // Transpose // Most; which can be encapsulated in the ellipseSimLowLevel as follows ellipseSimLowLevel[ellPos_, θ_, aimAt_, refls_, ...

The first step in debugging is always to narrow down the problem. To do this, you can make ncurve global: DynamicModule[{(* ncurve = {} *) }, EventHandler[ ... Then, you can click on the image and evaluate ncurve in a separate cell: Length[ncurve] 248652 (You can and should put ncurve in a DynamicModule once you're done, of course. But for ...

Your code for your model is wrong. As others are saying, your forcing function is $\cos(\omega t)$. Therefore, you simply use NDSolve to obtain solution. eq =theta''[t] + b/(m L0^2) theta'[t] + g/L0 Sin[theta[t]] -T0 Cos[w t]/(m L0^2); ic = {theta'[0] == Pi, theta[0] == 1}; b = 0.22; m = 1; L0 = 1; g = 9.8; w = 1; T0 = 1; sol = First@NDSolve[{eq == 0, ic}, ...
