  • The Swing of a Cricket Ball
    SCIENCE BEHIND REVERSE SWING C.P.VINOD CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory Pune BACKGROUND INFORMATION • Swing bowling is a skill in cricket that bowlers use to get a batsmen out. • It involves bowling a ball in such a way that it curves or ‘swings’ in the air. • The process that causes this ball to swing can be explained through aerodynamics. Dynamics is the study of the cause of the motion and changes in motion Aerodynamics is a branch of Dynamics which studies the motion of air particularly when it interacts with a moving object There are basically four factors that govern swing of the cricket ball: Seam Asymmetry in ball due to uneven tear Speed Bowling Action Seam of cricket ball Asymmetry in ball due to uneven tear Cricket ball is made from a core of cork, which is layered with tightly wound string, and covered by a leather case with a slightly raised sewn seam Dimensions- Weight: 155.9 and 163.0 g 224 and 229 mm in circumference Speed Fast bowler between 130 to 160 KPH THE BOUNDARY LAYER • When a sphere travels through air, the air will be forced to negotiate a path around the ball • The Boundary Layer is defined as the small layer of air that is in contact with the surface of a projectile as it moves through the air • Initially the air that hits the front of the ball will stick to the ball and accelerate in order to obtain the balls velocity. • In doing so it applies pressure (Force) in the opposite direction to the balls velocity by NIII Law, this is known as a Drag Force.

  • Cricket As Metaphor in Thomas Pynchon's Against The
    65 GRAAT issue # 3 – March 2008 It’s just not cricket: cricket as metaphor in Thomas Pynchon’s Against the Day 1 Peter Vernon Université François Rabelais – Tours This paper makes a very modest proposal indeed; it has as its sole aim to attempt to illuminate one small aspect of the immense novel Against the Day . I shall first, very briefly, suggest some of the analogies and demands made on the reader by Pynchon’s encyclopedic work in which everything connects with everything else; proceed to say why I believe he uses the game of cricket in Against the Day , and then analyze the stereotype of cricket and “The Great Game” of espionage as codes of language and behaviour. Extrapolating from that analysis, I shall make some very hesitant conclusions on Pynchon's vision. What does not concern Thomas Pynchon would be easier to enumerate than what this polymathic author writes about. A reader, certainly this reader, faced with a new book by Pynchon feels like one of the rustics in The Deserted Village looking at the village schoolmaster: “And still they gazed, and still the wonder grew,/That one small head could carry all he knew” (Goldsmith ll. 211-12). Were there time, it would be interesting to develop some kind of theory as to what Pynchon demands of the reader— 66 what kind of contract he establishes with the reader. I cannot do that today, except to say that like later Joyce, he gives a total world view, and he also works by pastiche (the Chums of Chance, the Monty Python Twits, James Bond, “The Thing” etc).

  • Cricket Ball Aerodynamics: Myth Versus Science
    i¸ ._ _' -_ .¢, Cricket Ball Aerodynamics: Myth Versus Science Rabindra D. Mehta Experimental Physics Branch, NASA Ames Research Center, California, USA ABSTRACT: Aerodynamics plays a prominent role in the flight of a cricket ball released by a bowler. The main interest is in the fact that the ball can follow a curved flight path that is not always under the control of the bowler. The basic aerodynamic principles responsible for the nonlinear flight or "swing" of a cricket ball were identified several years ago and many papers have been published on the subject. In the last 20 years or so, several experimental investigations have been conducted on cricket ball swing, which revealed the amount of attainable swing, and the parameters that affect it. A general overview of these findings is presented with emphasis on the concept of late swing and the effects of meteorological conditions on swing. In addition, the relatively new concept of "reverse" swing, how it can be achieved in practice and the role in it of bali "tampering", are discussed in detail. A discussion of the "white" cricket ball used in last year's World Cup, which supposedly possesses different swing properties compared to a conventional red ball, is also presented. _TRODUCTION The origins of cricket are obscured and a source of much speculation, but there is some evidence that it was played in England in thel300s. People who do not play cricket (the majority of the human race) know it as a game of childish simplicity. A pleasant game for the beach it seems, but hardly enough to hold the attention of entire nations for days at a stretch.

  • University Microfilms International
    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.
