Vibration of the Koch drum
نویسنده
چکیده
The Koch snowflake is a well known self-similar set whose boundary is a fractal curve. Suppose a vibrating membrane with fixed boundary, i.e. a drum, is shaped like a Koch snowflake. The fundamental modes of vibration of this drum can be modelled by the eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the snowflake. These, in turn, can be approximated by a discrete problem leading to a matrix eigenvalue problem. ü Mathematica Initializations

A nanogenerator as a self-powered sensor for measuring the vibration spectrum of a drum membrane.
A nanogenerator (NG) is a device that converts vibration energy into electricity. Here, a flexible, small size and lightweight NG is successfully demonstrated as an active sensor for detecting the vibration spectrum of a drum membrane without the use of an external power source. The output current/voltage signal of the NG is a direct measure of the strain of the local vibrating drum membrane th...
متن کاملImages of a vibrating Koch drum
We illustrate the vibrational modes of a drum shaped like the Koch snowflake. Vibrational modes are computed using a fairly standard finite difference technique applied to a recently published discrete approximation to the snowflake. The computations are all performed in Mathematica 6.0 that has substantial graphical improvements over Mathematica 5.2. In particular, vertex normals may be specif...
متن کاملNarrative Vagueness in Grass’s The Tin Drum: A Text-Centric Model of Narration to Reveal Dialogized Heteroglossia
The present study sets out to investigate the narrator’s textual position in Grass’s The Tin Drum. Although authorial self-dramatization through affinities with one or more characters in the work is undeniable, this study mainly concentrates on the inner interpenetrations of heteroglot utterances as uttered by an unreliable first-person narrator, Oskar Matzerath, in the light of the Bakhtinian ...
متن کاملNonlinear Modelling of Kerman Combined Cycle Power Plant Drum-Boiler and Drum Level control especially in trip conditions
There are various methods of power generation such as combined cycle power plants. There are many variables in a power plant boiler unit, but the most important variables are Pressure and specially drum level that control system should be put it in the safe range. The purpose of this article is, modifying the oscillatory behavior of the drum level of Kerman combined cycle power plant and especi...
متن کاملModeling and Control of Water Level in Boiler Drum for Nassiriyah Thermal Power Plant
The boiler drum process is a nonlinear, complex and multivariable process which includes significant time delay. Therefore, the control on the water level in the drum is not easy and ideal. The first objective of this paper is to model the drum water level referring to 210 MW power unit for Nassiriyah thermal power plant. The second objective is to study the water level controller operation wit...
