Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Wow that was so cool to actually see! I've only ever seen animations of how waves work (and studied the math) but this physical model really makes it easy to grasp. I wish my professors used this when I was in school.
Yes that's a good video
Our professor sent this to us a few weeks ago and I normally have no desire to watch stuff he sends us, but this video was actually dope.
This is an incredibly helpful video, wish I had watched it when I was taking transmission lines. Most impressive part to me though was when the guy just knew that 9/49 is about 18%
Cool video but his EM wave analogy is backwards. A free end of the mechanical system is analogous to an open circuit and the reflected wave is positive on the transmission line. The clamped end is analogous to a short circuit (the end of the line is held at GND) and the reflected wave is negative.
I agree - fantastic visualization. I like it better than my video on the topic of standing waves:

For anyone that liked this, there's a YouTube channel Called Jeff Quintey that uploads restored technical and war documentaries from the 1930s onwards. There's some electrical content there that explains concepts in a similar style to this.
Edit: His Youtube account was closed, so his videos are on Vimeo.
This was wonderful, thanks for posting
