Pono kāu hoʻolālā i ka mana rotational pololei. ʻO ka pūnāwai paʻa ʻole ka haʻalulu a me ka hāʻule ʻole. Pehea ʻoe e hōʻoiaʻiʻo ai i ka maʻalahi, neʻe ʻike ʻia i kēlā me kēia manawa no kāu huahana?
ʻO ka hoʻohālikelike pūnāwai torsional o ka neʻe ʻana he kumu ia e wehewehe ana i ke ʻano o ka ʻōnaehana pūnāwai-nuipaʻa e oscillate.. It models the relationship between the spring's stiffness, ka mass's inertia[^1], a me nā ikaika humuhumu. This allows engineers to predict a spring's rotational behavior before it's even made.
Ke ike au i keia hoohalike, I don't just see a formula. ʻIke au i ka moʻolelo e pili ana i ka hana ʻana o kahi pūnāwai i kahi mīkini maoli. It's the blueprint we use at LINSPRING to prevent unwanted vibrations, hoʻomalu i ka neʻe ʻana, a e hōʻoia i kahi puna e hana pono i kāna hana no nā tausani o nā pōʻai. ʻO ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana i kēia hoʻohālikelike ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o ka hoʻolālā ʻana i kahi ʻāpana kūpono a me ka hana maoli. Let's break down what each part of that story means for your project.
He aha ke kumu kumu no ka neʻe Harmonic maʻalahi?
Pono ʻoe i kahi puna e oscillate predictably. Akā ʻaʻole mālama ʻia ka friction a me ka pale ʻana i ka ea i nā kumu hoʻohālike. Pehea e hoʻohana ʻia ai kēia ʻano maʻalahi no nā pilikia hoʻolālā honua maoli?
ʻO ka hoohalike kumu I * α + k * θ = 0. Eia, I ʻo ia ka manawa o ka inertia, α ʻo ka wikiwiki ʻokoʻa, k is the spring's torsion constant, a θ ʻo ia ka ka hoʻoneʻe kihi[^ 2]. Hōʻike kēia i kahi kūpono, ʻōnaehana frictionless kahi e hoʻomau mau ai ka neʻe.
ʻO kēia kumu maʻalahi ka wahi hoʻomaka no kēlā me kēia puna torsion a mākou e hoʻolālā ai. Kōkua ia iā mākou e hoʻomaopopo i ka pilina kumu ma waena o ka mea i hoʻoneʻe ʻia a me ka pūnāwai e neʻe nei. Manaʻo wau i ka huila kaulike i kahi wati mechanical. ʻO ka huila liʻiliʻi ka nuipa (I), a ua hāʻawi ka lauoho palupalu i ka ikaika hoʻihoʻi (k). The watch's accuracy depends on this perfect, ʻōniʻoniʻo hou. Ma kā mākou hale hana, ke hoomalu nei makou i ka k waiwai me ka pololei loa. We adjust the spring's wire diameter, waiwai, a me ka helu wili no ka loaʻa ʻana o ka ʻoʻoleʻa pono e pono ai ke hoʻokele pololei i ka ʻōnaehana. Hāʻawi kēia haʻihaʻi kumu iā mākou i ka pahuhopu kūpono e ʻimi ai.

Pehea e hoʻololi ai ka Damping i ka hoohalike o ka neʻe?
ʻOi aku ka lōʻihi o kāu ʻōnaehana punawai i kāna pahuhopu a i ʻole ka haʻalulu lōʻihi. An undamped model doesn't match reality. Pehea ʻoe e helu ai i nā ikaika e hoʻolohi i ka neʻe?
Hoʻopuka ʻo Damping i kahi huaʻōlelo e kūʻē i ka neʻe, e like me ka friction a i ʻole ka pale ʻana i ka ea. Lilo ka hoohalike I * α + c * ω + k * θ = 0, i hea c ʻo ia ka hoʻopaʻa haʻahaʻa[^5] a ω ʻo ia ka wikiwiki o ka huina. Hoʻokumu kēia i kahi kumu hoʻohālike ʻoi aku ka ʻoiaʻiʻo o ke ʻano o ka ʻōnaehana.
ʻO kēia kahi e hālāwai ai ka physics me ka honua maoli. ʻAʻohe mea oscillates mau loa. Ma kā mākou hana, ʻAʻole ʻo ka damping he ikaika e lanakila ai; it's often a feature we have to design for.

Pehea mākou e hoʻopili ai i kēia mau hoʻohālikelike i ka hana puna?
Loaʻa iā ʻoe ka hoohalike theoretical, akā pehea ka unuhi ʻana i kahi ʻāpana kino? A calculation is useless if the spring you receive doesn't match its predictions.
We apply these equations by connecting them to the physical properties of the spring. The torsional constant (k) is not an abstract number; it is a direct result of the material's shear modulus[^6], ke anawaena uwea, and the number of coils. We use this to manufacture springs that deliver a precise, predictable performance.
Ma kā mākou hale hana, the equation of motion is the bridge between a customer's performance requirement and our manufacturing process. An engineer might send us a drawing that says, "We need a system with this moment of inertia (I) to be critically damped (c) and return to zero in 0.5 seconds." Our job is to calculate the exact k value needed to make that happen. A laila, we turn that k value into a manufacturing recipe. We select a specific stainless steel wire with a known shear modulus, calculate the required wire diameter down to the thousandth of an inch, and determine the exact number of coils. We then use our CNC machines to produce the spring and verify its k value on our torque testing equipment.
From Theory to Steel: The Torsional Constant Formula
The key is the formula for the torsional constant itself.
- The Formula:
k = (G * d^4) / (8 * D * N)Gis the Shear Modulus of the material (a measure of its rigidity).dʻo ia ka anawaena uwea[^7].Dis the mean coil diameter.Nis the number of active coils.
- What We Control: We can't change physics (
Gis a property of the material), but we can control everything else. The wire diameter (d) has the biggest impact, as it is raised to the fourth power. A tiny change in wire thickness causes a huge change in stiffness. Hoʻoponopono pololei mākou i ke anawaena coil (D) a me ka helu wili (N) to fine-tune the spring's performance. - Hooia: Ma hope o ka hana ʻana, hoʻohana mākou i nā mea hōʻike torque e hoʻopili i kahi hoʻoneʻe angular i ʻike ʻia (
