cymbal2-crash-v1: the crash cymbal struck on the bell, at mid-radius and near the rim#
The cymbal of this tier: a paraboloidal bow with a cosine-dome bell around the mounting hole and a thickness that tapers from 1.2 mm at the bell to 0.7 mm at the rim, struck three times by the stick, on the flank of the bell, at half the radius and at 0.85 R, two seconds apart. The three hits are identical sticks; what differs is the local stiffness they meet, so the ping of the bell and the crash of the rim come out of the same equations. The model, the strikes, the listener, the output, the error measures and the common parameters are defined in MODEL.md; this page fixes what is specific to this challenge. The machine-readable version is challenge.json.
Geometry#
for . The bell joins the bow with continuous slope and a jump in curvature at ; the thickness is continuous there.

At the three strike points the surface is 29, 19 and 7 mm above the rim plane, its slope is 0.43, 0.12 and 0.21, and the thickness is 1.20, 1.04 and 0.80 mm; the first footprint spans 30 to 40 mm from the axis, clear of the hole. The largest slope of the profile is about 0.46, on the flank of the bell, where shallow-shell theory is a coarse approximation of a real cymbal; the model is nevertheless defined as written.
