Gömböc-The Shape That Shouldn't Exist

Ойын-сауық

In this video I show you a Gömböc. This is a shape that has only two equilibrium points-one stable and one unstable, instead of the usual minimum of 4. It is self-righting no matter how you set it down.

    Hi everyone, some are confused about why there is only one unstable equilibrium on the Gomboc since you can set it along anywhere on the upper edge and it will tip over. An unstable equilibrium is not simply an edge where it will tip over, but it has a specific definition. The equilibrium points are where the derivative of the potential energy of the shape is zero. To see if it is an unstable or stable equilibrium, then you check to see if the second derivative is positive or negative. If the second derivative of the potential energy is negative then it is an unstable equilibrium. If the second derivative is positive it means that the equilibrium stable. Non-mathematically this means that the unstable equilibrium is the point that it theoretically could be balanced because the weight is equal all around the point, but it would fall over at the slightest wind or movement.

    The Gömböc (not gumbock, but more like goem-boetz) was made and designed at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME). The name itself is kind of a made up word we use in Hungarian for objects with a round-ish shape, but what is not perfectly round like a ball, however it resembles one. Like for example when you're working with dough you can form small "gömböc" from the pastry. Not a perfect ball, but something close.

    If anyone interested, the original “gömböc” is a Hungarian food. Their shape is somewhat similar and the name has a cutesy ring to it (for Hungarians). As for the food it’s not really produced anymore as it’s kinda disgusting by today’s standards (pork intestines filled with blood, meat, skin etc). It’s similar to “head cheese”, a similarly less known food in some parts of Europe. It’s also the antagonist of a horroristic Hungarian folk tale (“Kisgömböc”) where a gömböc decides to run amok and basically eats the whole village alive :)

    Ok so basic definition of stable equilibrium in terms of dynamics is when a certain body always returns to its original position without any constraints. Example. When you roll a marble in a bowl, it always returns back to the bottom point. Unstable equilibrium is quite the opposite. If you were to keep the bowl upside down and roll the marble, it would roll off the bowl and won’t return to its original position

    The video did a really bad job at differentiating between an equilibrium point and a non-equilibrium point. Whether it's a stable or unstable equilibrium, it's possible to balance a shape - unstable just means it'll fall over with a nudge. Obviously then non-equilibrium means it's impossible to balance it in the first place.

    Equilibrium exists whenever the center of gravity is directly over the point of contact with the ground. Gravitational forces are over the point of contact, so the object is supported and there are no lateral forces to cause motion. If the center of gravity is not located over the point of contact, the offset in location of these opposing force vectors result in torque and subsequent rotation. The claim is that this only occurs in two positions with this object. Stable equilibrium occurs when the object's potential energy would increase (CG moving upwards) if the object moved away from equilibrium - therefore the object will tend to stay there unless energy is added. The object will return to the same position if a brief small force is applied. Unstable equilibrium occurs when the objects potential energy would decrease if moved away from equilibrium (CG moves lower). Any briefly applied force will result in the object continuing to move away from an unstable equilibrium. Basically the object can 'fall' out of an unstable equilibrium, but is already at it's lowest position when in stable equilibrium.

    Léda Boros So yes, “Gurmburts” is correct, then. (I thought so - I studied Hungarian under Britain’s leading translator of Hungarian fiction into English). It isn’t the “u” in burn that’s pronounced like “ö”: it’s the “u” and “r” together. Some people in Scotland will roll the r a bit but most English speakers don’t pronounce it at all.

    he must have done that on purpose so that when the gomboc was actually discovered he received some credit even though he did absolutely nothing.
