| UPDATE: FEB 2004 | The Millikan Library paper has been published: http://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechEERL:EERL-2004-03 |
The movie archive contains movies of the Millikan Library's behavior during a suite of forced vibration tests performed August 28, 2002 by John Clinton, Javier Favela, and myself. The file name conventions are as follows:
exp[number]-[exitation frequency].nne.gif, eg: exp3-1.67Hz.nne.gif = Experiment 3, Forced excitation of 1.67Hz
The movies are animated .gif images, which contain the acceleration records from each of the floors, there are two N-S arrays and one E-W array shown in each figure.
Experiment 1: E-W shaking with full weights
Experiment 2: N-S shaking with full weights
Experiment 3: N-S shaking with 2x2 weights
Experiment 4: E-W shaking with 2x2 weights
Experiment 5: E-W shaking with no weights
Experiment 6: N-S shaking with no weights
For more details regarding the experiment, and some summary plots of our results, please see the paper mentioned above, and also John Clinton's Millikan Shake Test Results page.
