Method Summary
Velocity Test
Configure bow to launchrod at 50mph
Shoot rod verticallydown into tube against arock
Used brass rods/tubes
Steel tubes could not be
found Compare brass rods to
brass tubes to see if thereis a difference
Gradual Displacement Test
Apply force to contained
rod until it is displaced a
set amount of inches

Method
Gradual Displacement Test
Reduced Friction
Apply force to contained
rod until it is displaced a
set amount of inches Every half inch hit the
tube to reduce force of
friction
Gradual Displacement Test-Springback
When rod has been
displaced set amount of
inches, remove oneclosed off side
Measure movement
(springback)

Conclusions
Velocity Test
Failure to achieve results
Gradual Displacement Test -Springback
Removed top
Rod that had been
displaced 3 in is slightlydeformed but returned to
initial starting position
Removed bottom
Rod jumped out of tube,
moving 2 inches down Top of rod slightly
deformed
Gradual Displacement Test
Reduced Friction
Rod could be displaced more
if force of friction is reduced
Prevents lockup
Rod only slightly deformed
while being displaced 5
inches
Axial strain: 5/48 = 0.104; 10%12
