Alas, we will never know, because Oxygon won't build anything, and you don't have the sense to prove what you say, instead of ranting that you're right and prosecuted by the ignorant.

You beat me to it Jonathan.
Georg, if you think you are in such danger bringing your ideas to the public why do you keep doing it?
I think your ideas are just that - ideas - and you are frustrated by not being able to make your models behave as your theory predicts. You are not the first person in the World to have their theory let down by the demands of real physics.
Without proof you become just another crank with a pet theory. What do you expect?

Re: re: PM Concept / SIM Request
Even if you do have an imbalance, it's so slight that it can't exert enough leverage to overcome the inertia/mass of the other wts. (I posted something about this in an earlier topic. Type " Leverage Death Spiral " in the search option above. It should bring it up.)Oxygon wrote: the outer weights are further in and out on opposing sides...
I've given up on side-to-side wt shifting. It doesn't work. The key is to raise the center of gravity.

I do what I can, I can't do everything... ;P
I don't know about what "Künstler" is so sure about...?
He seems to like approving things?... but never shares?...
I have noticed the "Leverage Death Spiral"
maybe, maybe not...
the world may never know...
I gave up on the idea...
at least for a little while...
doesn't mean there isn't a way...
to cause the weights to shift both inner and outer to one side...
just havent found it yet...

Mr Tim ,
or shift COG from left to right...

You are welcome to keep trying side-to-side shifting, but after 14+ years and 5000+ designs/experiments, I've found that it doesn't work.Neo wrote:Mr Tim ,or shift COG from left to right...The key is to raise the center of gravity.
The concept I've been playing with the past few years is to have the wt raise at 12 and tuck back in by 3. You only need to get a wt to shift 1 inch (per foot of wheel diameter) to cause a continual imbalance.
Not impossible, but I'm rather lazy at doing things.... ;P
