  • Publication number: 20200111387
    Abstract: An apparatus and a method for demonstrating a new scientific discovery made by the inventor about the nonlinear instability of vehicles, like aircrafts, automobiles and ocean vehicles. The apparatus comprises a model and a three-gimbaled framework that permits the model to respond to inertial moments about the axes of which the moments of inertias are the smallest and the largest. In these two axes, the apparatus has restoring and damping capabilities. The apparatus also comprises external driven mechanisms to rotate the model about the intermediate principal axis of inertia. A method with closed form formulas for the external driven frequencies and amplitudes to be used to excite the nonlinear instabilities of the model is given. The model could be an aircraft, an automobile, a ship, or even a rectangular block.
