Where is windows clipboard to view the print?
I only find wordpad and notepad.

Ah-ha, there is the problem. The clipboard is not a program. It is a function of all Windows programs. Every time you copy and paste something it goes into the Windows clipboard. It can be text or graphics. Then you can go to another program and paste. If you copied a picture then a picture gets pasted. Pressing the Print Screen key just copies the screen. Then you paste the picture of the screen using any program that accepts the pasting of pictures. Windows 'Paint' or Windows 'Imaging' programs work.

re: My First Post
Wheeler...
Jim is quite right...the PC Clipboard is only something you access the contents of by Pasting those contents into another program such as MS Word or Paint.
Anyway, I just made a quick (and very sloppy!) 8 frame animation loop of the self-sustaining pendulum for you "Pendulum Men" to contemplate. This is based on the actual simulation and obeys the laws of physics; in other words, I did not pose the position of the rolling ball weight for the sake of the animated loop.

On 7/6/06, I found, in any overbalanced gravity wheel with rotation rate, ω, axle to CG distance d, and CG dip angle φ, the average vertical velocity of its drive weights is downward and given by:
Vaver = -2(√2)πdωcosφ
Vaver = -2(√2)πdωcosφ
re: My First Post
Ken,
There is that sensationalizing again! You have NOT proven that it is a self-sustaining pendulum, so why do you insist on calling it that? And, as both Jonathan and I have pointed out, the graph you included in the previous image shows that it is indeed slowing down. Plus you never even addressed the friction on the pivot of the pendulum.

Thanks Ken
When I hit print screen, it gives me my printer.
It is very strange.
Ken I do believe Ed is correct in his statements about the facts of the reality of the pendulum motion.
Have you checked this out?
Ralph please be patient , As usual you have much insight.

re: My First Post
The pendulum itself seems to run forward, as if it had it's own power?
Maybe from the quick animation you drew!
Anyway thanks for doing all this stuff all the time.

re: My First Post
You can even see in Ken's fast attempt at an animation, and assuming the last frame of animation is the highest point of the pendulum's upswing, that it is not at the same height as the starting frame.

re: My First Post
Yes I see that, but I do not think He is trying to use the animation for detail of the motion.

re: My First Post
It's true. I don't know what his point is...
re: My First Post
There is something about being alive and accepting that we cannot understand things.
If he did not post, we would not have his ideas to work with.

re: My First Post
I have no problem with people posting ideas. My point is just don't sell them as more than they are (i.e. self-sustaining simulation).
re: My First Post
It is sometimes hard to relay ideas by use of electronics, so I think we may not always understand each other
Electronic communication is new. Therefore we may not yet be able to relay ideas, and feeling along with scientific fact into a keyboard that sends + and = to other computers.
We are working with codes.
Ed don't forget we are not talking directly with each other.
We may have a view of what we think someone is like. This is because of memory of experience, We can not actually known someone by the codes used on keyboards.

Well ok... if you call over 20 years new! http://www.historyoftheinternet.com/chap3.html
As for not understanding... all Ken had to do is call it a "ball inside pendulum idea" instead of a "self-sustaining pendulum" and we wouldn't be having this conversation.

re: My First Post
Down here in Australia the name we use for 'Wheeler's code' is written English. I seem to remember practicing this strange communication process from an early age :P
