Swinging Atwood Machine: Experimental and numerical results, and a theoretical study

A Swinging Atwood Machine (SAM) is built and some experimental results concerning its dynamic behaviour are presented. Experiments clearly show that pulleys play a role in the motion of the pendulum, since they can rotate and have non-negligible radii and masses. Equations of motion must therefore take into account the moment of inertia of the pulleys, as well as the winding of the rope around them. Their influence is compared to previous studies. A preliminary discussion of the role of dissipation is included. The theoretical behaviour of the system with pulleys is illustrated numerically, and the relevance of different parameters is highlighted. Finally, the integrability of the dynamic system is studied, the main result being that the machine with pulleys is non-integrable. The status of the results on integrability of the pulley-less machine is also recalled.

纳秒脉冲电压同轴电场下有机玻璃和尼龙的闪络特性

利用基于SOS的SPG200高压脉冲功率装置研究了有机玻璃(PMMA)和尼龙1010在变压器油中的闪络特性。研究结果表明:闪络电压随内电极直径增加近似指数增加，随闪络距离延长近似线性增加，相应的击穿时延也近似线性增加。受实验条件的影响，有机玻璃和尼龙1010的闪络性能略有差异。同轴径向电场降落集中在内电极表面附近一定径向距离内，同轴电场下的闪络电压主要由内电极表面电场与径向电场分布的均匀程度决定。增加内电极直径和延长闪络距离都可以提高闪络电压，而增加内电极直径的效果更显著。     

Multi-use laser impulse pendulum and laser propulsion parameters measurement

In order to investigate the mechanisms of both the air-breathing and the ablation modes of laser propulsion under laboratory conditions, a multi-use laser impulse pendulum (MULIP) is developed. The measurable impulse range is from 1.0×10-4 to 3.8×10-3 N.s. The experimental calibration data agree well with the theoretical calculated data. With MULIP, the ablation mode has been performed, in which a high power pulsed Nd:glass laser (λ= 1.06μm,Τ= 20 ns) and a gray PVC film sample are used. The experimental results show that the maximum momentum coupling coefficient Cm is 7.73×10-5 N/W, and the maximum specific impulse Isp is 208.6 s.

Distinguishing the transition to chaos in a spherical pendulum

Complex responses are studied for a spherical pendulum whose support is excited with a translational periodic motion. Governing equations are studied analytically to allow prediction of responses under various excitation conditions. Stability for certain cases of damping is predicted by means of existing analysis and compared with experimental data. Numerical time-step integration of the governing equations is developed to predict responses for various types of excitation and damping conditions. Predicted results are compared with corresponding motions measured in an experimental spherical pendulum system. A data acquisition system is included whereby detailed digitized time histories of the pendulum motion can be established and various parameters can be computed to characterize the type of motion present. Two new vector spaces are defined for describing complex responses which occur for certain specified excitation conditions. It is shown in these parameter spaces that the transition from quasiperiodic to chaotic motions can be carefully quantified in systems with very light damping. This discovery provides a convenient means for comparison of complex motions in the numerical and experimental air pendulum systems. The implications of the results are important for dynamic response in various applications, including fluid motions in satellite tanks and other nonlinear time-dependent physical processes which include very light damping.

An impulse test technique with application to acoustic measurements

A method is described for measuring the acoustic properties of an absorbent material and a duct/nozzle system (with or without airflow) in which a high voltage spark discharge is used as an impulse source of sound. The cross-spectra of the incident, reflected and transmitted acoustic pressure transients are analyzed by way of a FFT digital processor in the form of complex transfer functions. These transfer functions have a direct relationship to the termination impedance and radiation directivity. The impulse method has been justified by comparisons that show excellent agreement with data obtained from existing methods (both experimental and theoretical).

On the radiation of the electromagnetic impulse pendulum

Summary In this paper we clarify the sources of radiation in a number of experiments, concerning the electromagnetic impulse pendulum, carried out by various authors. The calculated radiated energy was found to be negligible, in all cases, compared to the energy stored in their systems, in contradiction to their claim. We elucidate the way by which Newton's third law is applicable and how the reaction force of the moving pendulum is transferred to the stationary frame. In the MIT experiment of Graneauet al., average values for quantities like the time constant, resistance etc. are given ignoring their standard deviations. Calculating and taking into account their errors, due to their dependence on the temperature, we found agreement between the theoretical and experimental values of the pendulum momentum.     

Characterization of mechanical dissipation spectral behavior using a gravitomagnetic pendulum

We have developed an experimental method based on the reaction of a magnetic mass with respect to a dc biased coil to change the frequency of a pendulum. In a preliminary experiment this method has allowed us to investigate the mechanical dissipation of nylon pendulum wires over the 0.1-1.4 Hz frequency range. According to the procedure shown in this paper, it is possible to deduce from the measurements whether the dissipation process is viscous or not. The method is generally applicable and adaptable to be used to characterise the behaviour of the suspension systems developed for gravitational waves detectors.     

Chaos and transient chaos in an experimental nonlinear pendulum

Pendulum is a mechanical device that instigates either technological or scientific studies, being associated with the measure of time, stabilization devices as well as ballistic applications. Nonlinear characteristic of the pendulum attracts a lot of attention being used to describe different phenomena related to oscillations, bifurcation and chaos. The main purpose of this contribution is the analysis of chaos in an experimental nonlinear pendulum. The pendulum consists of a disc with a lumped mass that is connected to a rotary motion sensor. This assembly is driven by a string-spring device that is attached to an electric motor and also provides torsional stiffness to the system. A magnetic device provides an adjustable dissipation of energy. This experimental apparatus is modeled and numerical simulations are carried out. Free and forced vibrations are analyzed showing that numerical results are in close agreement with those obtained from experimental data. This analysis shows that the experimental pendulum has a rich response, presenting periodic response, chaos and transient chaos.     

Experiments on periodic and chaotic motions of a parametrically forced pendulum

An experimental study of periodic and chaotic type aperiodic motions of a parametrically harmonically excited pendulum is presented. It is shown that a characteristic route to chaos is the period-doubling cascade, which for the parametrically excited pendulum occurs with increasing driving amplitude and decreasing damping force, respectively. The coexistence of different periodic solutions as well as periodic and chaotic solutions is demonstrated and various transitions between them are studied. The pendulum is found to exhibit a transient chaotic behaviour in a wide range of driving force amplitudes. The transition from metastable chaos to sustained chaotic behaviour is investigated.     

Edge-enhanced imaging with polyvinyl alcohol/acrylamide photopolymer gratings

We demonstrate edge-enhanced imaging produced by volume phase gratings recorded on a polyvinyl alcohol/acrylamide photopolymer. Bragg diffraction, exhibited by volume gratings, modifies the impulse response of the imaging system, facilitating spatial filtering operations with no need for a physical Fourier plane. We demonstrate that Kogelnik's coupled-wave theory can be used to calculate the transfer function for the transmitted and the diffracted orders. The experimental and simulated results agree, and they demonstrate the feasibility of our proposal.
