The Motion of a Driven Oscillator. Part 1 Nondecreasing Input Velocities,

Abstract

An inertia-actuated impact fuze is represented by a cantilever mounted on an accelerating frame. The lever is a driven, normally harmonic, oscillator and operates a secondary mechanism if it is moving fast enough at a particular deflection. The sets of possible motion are determined when the input frame velocity is nondecreasing. These motion sets lead to sufficient conditions, in terms of the input velocity at a particular time, for no operation up to that time, for certain operation and, when operation is certain, to the maximum operating time. (Author) operation up to that time, for certain operation and, when operation is certain, to the maximum operating time. (Author)
