no, wasn't that. As I recall, I was approximating how initial tension put on the ridgeline from tightening up on the suspension (before someone gets in) would be represented. I was assuming Hooke's...

you weren't around when I was moving virtual trees around to do a force calculation on a ridgeline, were you? :) simplifying assumptions...
Are you assuming the entire chamber takes on a circular...
well this is true. It does not necessarily follow though that the shape of the
minimal length curve over a straight line that achieves a given area is the arc of a circle though....
There is a...
Among all two-dimensional closed curves, the circle maximizes the ratio of area enclosed to length of the enclosing curve. In nature, when shapes take form under uniform force they tend towards such...
What I'm doing, which has been mentionned on HF before (which is why I'm doing it!), is to have the width of the outside piece be wider than the piece that goes up against the hammock body. ("width"...
OK, got it, thanks.
As I'm figuring my UQ for warmer temps ( loft between 1.5" and 2"), I'm thinking about sewing though rather than baffles. With differently dimensioned sides (the one that is...
I've been trying to get an idea of what happens at the ends of baffles, without going through HE's careful measurements in the instructions....easier to ask...
Thinking about a baffle in use, it...
Hey Dutch,
dang that's pretty.
I've been away from home all week, got home this evening and had a look at my momentum from thru-hiker for the first time. That calendered side is really shiny! ...
