In doing so, we aim to apply some of the ideas from drama-managed storytelling, such as authorial aesthetic control, in an unguided setting more akin to emergent st...

in this paper, based on equations of lateral vibrations of wires, a non contact method for measuring instantaneous tension in a wire is introduced. the lateral vibration of the string is measured using an eddy current transducer and is sent to a computer. this signal is then imported to suitable software for fast fourier transform (fft) processing. the first natural frequency of the string is c...
