Students 1. How to make music
using wind chime pipes This project demonstrates how
we can use the principle of mechanical engineering for making music. The
students are given a set of wind chime pipes with different lengths. They can
measure and record the frequencies of the wind chime pipes using a MATLAB GUI
program. By finding the relationship between the pipe frequencies and the
pipe frequencies using Excel, they can calculate the pipe lengths that are
required to play the song "Mary
had a little lamb". Download files for this
project. The files are described as the following 1.
