The hidden physics of anchoring big ships, catenary curves, seabeds, and holding power
On large ships, the anchor mainly pins the end of the chain while the heavy catenary curve absorbs loads from wind and current. This video explains how seabed type, chain scope, and recovery mechanics ...

Modeling a catenary curve with a mass-spring system
In this video, we model a catenary curve using a mass-spring system, showing how a chain-like shape can emerge from discrete masses connected by springs. We connect the simulation to real physics, ...
Abstract: Transporting objects using aerial robots has been widely studied in the literature. Still, those approaches always assume that the connection between the quadrotor and the load is made in a ...
Abstract: According to field measurements, the damping ratio of a railway catenary varies along the span length and shows an inherent uncertainty. In numerical simulations, it is common to assume a ...
