从“会挽雕弓如满月”谈现代复合弓的力学演化

DRAWING THE CARVED BOW ARCHING AS THE FULL MOON: DISCUSSING THE MECHANICS OF MODERN COMPOUND BOWS

  • 摘要: 弓箭既是古代战争中重要的远程武器,又是现代体育运动中融合精准与优雅的竞技项目。从早期狩猎的单材弓到制霸冷兵器战场的复合材料弓,再到设计精巧、性能卓越的现代复合弓,其中贯穿始终的是人类对弓的力学原理的研究与实践。本文从北宋文学家苏轼的名句“会挽雕弓如满月”谈起,简要介绍弓的结构演化,分析现代复合弓的复合材料弓壁和偏心凸轮等关键部件的力学原理,探讨力学在现代复合弓的轻质、高效和稳定等性能突破中起到的重要作用。

     

    Abstract: The bow and arrow is not only a crucial long-range weapon in ancient times, but also modern competitive sports of precision and elegance. From primitive single-material hunting bows to composite-material bows dominating pre-gunpowder battlefields, and then to today’s compound bows with exquisite design and excellent performance, the application of mechanical principles plays a key role throughout the bow’s evolution. Inspired by Su Shi's famous poem “drawing the carved bow arching as the full moon”, this paper traces the structural evolution of bows, and analyzes the mechanics of key components of modern compound bows, such as composite-material limbs and eccentric cams. Then it discusses the promoting role of mechanical innovations in achieving lightweight, highly efficient, and stable of bows.
