擺撞協奏曲:相位完美節奏—Lato Lato 運動機制之研究 A Study of the Motion Mechanism of Lato-Lato
This study explores the dynamics of the traditional toy Lato-Lato, consisting of two balls connected by a string whose midpoint is attached to a vertically oscillating support. When the support vibrates at certain frequencies and amplitudes, the system transitions from regular pendulum motion to collisions, causing the oscillation amplitude to grow significantly. Through precise experiments and motion analysis, we examine how vibration frequency, amplitude, and string length affect energy and momentum transfer. Finally, we propose a phase-adjustment method to optimize energy transfer efficiency, offering insights
for future engineering applications.
