Bostran - The bowed string - bow motion analysis and influence of bow properties Funding: VR
The basic physical process for the sound generation in the bowed instruments is a stick-slip motion triggered by the wave motion on the string. The project comprises three sub-studies related to the modelling of the bow-string interaction and its control mechanisms:
A validation of existing bowed-string models using a PC-controlled bowing... [more]
