Vibration animation for a violin

This page shows the measured eigenmodes of vibration for a violin made by Antonio Stradivari. For the sake of the animation, the amplitudes have been greatly exaggerated and the frequencies slowed down (slow-motion display).

Eigenmodes of Vibration of a Violin

Example: Violin by Antonio Stradivari (1712)

You can find examples of frame model animation here.

You can find examples of contour line display here.

Another way to evaluate the eigenmodes of vibration is to plot the "modal activity".
