The contribution describes some aspects related to the representation of special curves; recalling mechanisms created specifically for the design of these curves, which have particular characteristics. Through the construction of a simple apparatus, consisting of two pendulums—which oscillate at the same time- it is possible to graphically reproduce Lissajous’ experiments on the commuting vibrations of the diapasons. This equipment was first built by Samuel Charles Tisley (London 1829-Unknown), under the name of harmonographer. The contribution aslo illustrates the essential characteristics of the harmonograph—born as a means of analysing vibrations—but which, by its principle belongs to mechanics, for its applications to acoustic science and geometry for the ability to draw “harmonious” curves.

在力学与和谐之间:利萨如曲线的绘制
该贡献描述了与特殊曲线表示相关的一些方面;召回机制专为设计这些具有特定特征的曲线而创建。通过构造一个由两个同时摆动的钟摆组成的简单装置,可以用图形再现利萨如关于音叉的通勤振动的实验。该设备最初由 Samuel Charles Tisley(伦敦 1829 年-未知)以 harmonographer 的名义制造。该贡献还说明了谐波仪的基本特征——作为分析振动的一种手段而诞生——但根据其原理,它属于力学,因为它在声学科学和几何学中的应用具有绘制“谐波”曲线的能力。
