Experimental investigation of characteristics of Chladni effect

In this work, characteristics of Chladni effect around a nodal point on a metal plate vibrating flexurally are experimentally investigated. Shrimp eggs with 440 μm diameter approximately are used as the particles for measurement. The locus of particle clusters moving to the nodal point, and dependence of the average radial velocity of particle clusters on the vibration displacement of metal plate, particle number in a cluster, and initial radial position of particle clusters, are measured and analyzed.
