Abstract: A Helmholtz resonator with a uniform, flexible end plate is studied in this work. This work shows that the flexible plate modifies the frequency response characteristics of the resonator, providing multiple distinct resonant ...

Abstract: In this paper, a continuous tracking strategy for the heliostat in the James S. Markiewicz Concentrated Solar Energy Research Facility at Valparaiso University is developed. A model of the nonlinear dynamics of the heliostat ...
