source file: mills2.txt Date: Mon, 9 Jun 1997 14:01:31 +0200 Subject: Book suggestion: resonators From: Daniel Wolf When I posed the question about cavity resonators some time ago, I completely forgot this book, which someone on the GAMELAN list cited: Harry F. Olson _Music, Physics and Engineering_ (formerly titled _MusicalEngineering_), second edition, Dover 1967. The chapter on _Resonators and Radiators_ (pp. 59-107) has a detailed description of Helmholz resonators with the best formulation I've yet found. However, for my purposes, I am convinced that trial and error, when possible copying existing models, is the best practical means of designing such resonators. Of course, someone with better programming skills might give it a try...
