متن کاملThe Falling Slinky
Consider a slinky that is held at one end while the rest of it is allowed to hang freely. If the slinky is released, then as it falls due to gravity it also shrinks in extent due to the contracting force in the slinky itself. A few years ago it was discovered that the net effect of these two changes exactly counteract each other at the bottom extent of the slinky and therefore the bottom of the...
متن کاملModeling Falling and Accumulating Snow
The use of computer graphics to produce special effects is currently being applied with great results in especially the entertainment and game industry. One area where computer graphics is not quite ready to replace all real effects is natural phenomena where a lack of general models exists. In this work we present a general model for falling and accumulating snow. The appearance and movement o...
متن کاملModeling the Vertical Falling Life Chute
Stretchable woven chute is a safe device for falling humans from multi-story buildings in emergencies. During the fall, the elastomeric property of the fabric, in the weft direction, causes radial forces towards the human body inside .These radial forces lead to frictional forces between the chute and the body. The falling man can reduce the falling speed by exerting outward forces via stretchi...
