Swamp Thing replied to the thread Undergrad Mass-and-spring model of parametric amplification.In a sense, yes it does. That is, as far as the mechanical models discussed in it go. However, searching for the word "nonlinearity"... -
Swamp Thing reacted to Paul Colby's post in the thread Undergrad Mass-and-spring model of parametric amplification with
Like.
The notion that just a nonlinear component, like a non-linear spring, leads to parametric amplification left me wondering. This wiki... -
Swamp Thing reacted to tech99's post in the thread Undergrad Mass-and-spring model of parametric amplification with Like.
If the signal and pump are both applied to the mass, then the deflections will add. But to produce parametric action the spring...

Swamp Thing replied to the thread Undergrad Mass-and-spring model of parametric amplification.For mechanical examples, I thought it might make sense to use an elongation / compression dependent stiffness. (Rather than commanding...

Swamp Thing posted the thread Undergrad Mass-and-spring model of parametric amplification in Mechanics.I was playing with a toy model ( HTML + JS ) involving a mass, spring and damping that lets you vary those parameters using sliders. In...

Swamp Thing replied to the thread Why does the base of the stapes (oval window) have a lower amplitude in the middle ear?.I have found that this channel does a good job of explaining things. I watched this particular video a couple of years ago and it was...
