Wave Machine Model Description

Wave Machine Model is a handy, easy to use app specially designed to help you analyze the wave machine produced by John Shive at Bell Laboratories and made famous by the PSSC Simple Waves film. The machine consists of horizontal bars welded to a torsion rod that is perpendicular to the bars. The simulation allows the user to change the lengths of the bars, thereby simulating the effect of a wave propagating in a non-uniform medium. The simulation allows various pulse shapes to be sent down the machine by selecting a function for the twist of the first rod or by dragging the first rod. For example, applying a Gaussian twist produces a Gaussian traveling pulse but the width of this pulse depends on the wave speed. The far end of the wave machine can be free or clamped and this changes the nature of the reflected wave.
