Summary
DescriptionWavemachine.gif
English: The Wave Machine model simulates the wave machine produced by John Shive at Bell Laboratories and made famous by the PSSC Simple Waves film. The machine consists of n horizontal rods with moment of inertia In welded to an axle torsion bar that is perpendicular to the rods. The simulation allows the user to change the lengths of the rods, thereby simulating the effect of a wave propagating in a non-uniform medium.
The Wave Machine model was created by Wolfgang Christian,this remixed by lookang, using the Easy Java Simulations (EJS) version 4.3 authoring and modeling tool created by Francisco Esquembre.
Lookang and Wolfgang Christian is the original author of the computer model using Easy Java Simulations (EJS) version 4.3 authoring and modeling tool created by Francisco Esquembre.
