Hi folks Been reviewing Delwins handout entitled "Piano Scalemaking" and noticed in the formula he gives for/ J /(string stiffness) what appears to be an error and I'd apreciate a correction/clarification. The formula reads J = (pi^2Yd^2kL^2K)/32 and both Y and K are defined as being 1.9 * 10^11 N/m^2. Doesnt sound likely that Both Y and K would be of an identical such value without some further simplification... ends up being Y ^2 or K^2. Can somebody clear this up for me ? I'd also like to know what the small k value is. It is defined as an unspecified numerical constant in the handout.
