Vox populi,vox dei !?
« on: June 01, 2011, 08:16:38 PM »

  ...you know this latin motto.
     This time,we can use it as an inquiry,a questionable dilemma,if we consider the history of this "ugly" PM topic (with reference to the scientific establishment...).

     So,take a short look at the most popular and old design (let's say "vox populi") :

  http://www.todayinsci.com/Books/MechApp/chap23/page3.htm

  If this prevailing type can be considered a kind of "prescience"/foreknowledge ,have we a "key",to play "around this design" ...so to meet the next step ("vox dei") ?!

      Hi !
The problem with this "prevailing" (common,widespread) model,is his simplicity and his "historic heritage" (Villard,Tacolla,da Vinci,Bessler and so many others).

If you like,this is really a "technical folklore"...

The "speculation" about the possibility to obtain self-motion from gravity,is related to an usual water/air "wheel concept" ( continuous flow).

    -the general shape is a wheel with many spokes.

    -the particular shape (of a spoke) is a jointed arm,that can vary so easy from long arm to short arm ( in the bottom position),but....there is an evident problem for a "self" turn up (in the top position) ,from short arm to a longer arm.

For the moment,any model based on these two suppositions is not workable.

Why?

Maybe,we must try a transposition from a continuous "flow",to a discontinuous one...

Thinking so,in my opinion,one of "guesses" is deceptive...the other is useful.

So,let's develop the valuable part of this conjecture.

       All the best! / Alex
