Abstract
The response of a resonant chain of spheres to changes in holder material and pre-compression is studied at ultrasonic frequencies. The system is found to be very sensitive to these parameters, with the creation of impulsive waveforms from a narrow bandwidth input seen only for certain chain lengths and holder materials. In addition, careful experiments were performed using known amounts of pre-compression force, using a calibrated stylus arrangement. At negligible pre-compression levels, impulses were generated within the chain, which were then suppressed by increased pre-compression. This was accompanied by large changes in propagation velocity as the system gradually changes from being strongly nonlinear to being more linear. Simulations using a discrete model for the motion of each sphere agree well with experimental data.
