Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the development of science and technology, the utility of wood decreases, but in the world of luthiers, wood can never be replaced by other materials. This forest industry has great value. This gold mine was discovered in China and turned into mass production. In terms of volume and tone, a violin is incomparable with other stringed instruments, such as a guitar, ukulele, erhu. The performance skills and repertoire developed are hence rich. After a brief review of the history of violin making we discuss the physics of it.

Download or read book written by 丁致良 and published by 秀才書屋. This book was released on 2023-06-26 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 提琴的製做完全是憑藉手藝。製作者,近代稱為工程師,不斷的在問該如何製做。但是學科學的人卻是不斷的在問為什麼?科學是在追求真相,但製琴界很多人都是裝模作樣敝帚自珍,很少人將自己的心得拿出來與人討論。歷史上有很多科學家研究過提琴的物理。其實在近代物理發達之前,提琴的物理,包括聲學及弓的發聲原理,還是顯學。這些基礎科學在高中教科書中多數教過,因此很適合當作科展題目。本書從製琴的一些歷史開始,從振動學的角度討論提琴音響的物理,弓與弦的發聲原理,聲音的輻射,最後以奈米光學來探討提琴漆藝。
Download or read book The Physics of the Violin written by Lothar Cremer and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 1984-11-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This major work covers almost all that has been learned about the acoustics of stringed instruments from Helmholtz's 19th-century theoretical elaborations to recent electroacoustic and holographic measurements. Many of the results presented here were uncovered by the author himself (and by his associates and students) over a 20-year period of research on the physics of instruments in the violin family. Lothar Cremer is one of the world's most respected authorities on architectural acoustics and, not incidentally, an avid avocational violinist and violist. The book—which was published in German in 1981—first of all meets the rigorous technical standards of specialists in musical acoustics. But it also serves the needs and interests of two broader groups: makers and players of stringed instruments are expressly addressed, since the implications of the mathematical formulations are fully outlined and explained; and acousticians in general will find that the work represents a textbook illustration of the application of fundamental principles and up-to-date techniques to a specific problem. The first—and longest—of the book's three parts investigates the oscillatory responses of bowed (and plucked) strings. The natural nonlinearities that derive from considerations of string torsion and bending stiffness are deftly handled and concisely modeled. The second part deals with the body of the instrument. Special attention is given to the bridge, which transmits the oscillations of the strings to the wooden body and its air cavity. In this case, linear modeling proves serviceable for the most part—a simplification that would not be possible with lute—like instruments such as the guitar. The radiation of sound from the body into the listener's space, which is treated as an extension of the instrument itself, is the subject of the book's final part.
