I appreciate the feedback! Yes, I’ve seen the video of the person playing this instrument—it’s actually what inspired my work. Regarding the "reality" aspects, I fully intend to address those once I’ve established a rough theoretical model to compare against reality. For now, I’m just asking if...
Thank you for the input so far!
I’m focusing on modeling the energy conversions in the pipe system when struck with an impact. To simplify, I’ve decided not to include the viscoelastic behavior of the paddle material or its energy dissipation, assuming these effects are negligible and uniform...
Thank you for the detailed explanation!
I’d like to clarify a couple of points: the tube I’m working with is open on both ends, and only one end is struck by the paddle. The paddle doesn't close the tube; it just applies a quick force to the open end. The tube is made of PVC, and it’s...
Thanks for the response! To clarify, I'm not using an internal piston, but instead applying a force to the pipe using an external paddle (as shown in the diagram below). The tube is open at one end, and the paddle strikes the tube externally, applying a force F to the pipe wall. The idea is that...
Hello everyone,
I’m working on a theoretical model for a sound wave instrument that involves a pipe. Traditionally, sound wave instruments utilize an open tube, but I’m interested in exploring what happens when I apply a force F to the pipe.
How can I theoretically model the relationship...
