Miniature Pendulum Wave

This is a pendulum wave that can be printed on the A1 Mini in less than 3 hours. I have included print profiles for the A1 Mini and for X,P and A series printers. I have also included all the stl files and the Fusion design file if you want to play around with the design. Here is a link to a higher quality 30 second video (GIF is jerky) Mini Pendulum Wave.mp4 Pendulum waves are unique demonstration of the physics of oscillation. The lengths of the pendula are set such that in a given time t, the first pendulum completes x oscillations, and each subsequent one completes one more oscillation than the previous. As all pendula are started together, their relative phases change continuously, but after time t, they come back in sync and the sequence repeats. I designed the lengths of the pendula for a 15 second oscillation period. This is the formula for pendulum length:Where:L= length of the pendulum in metersT= oscillation period in secondsg= gravitational accelerationk= is a constant dete
