Moment of Inertia
This has been bugging me for a while. The moment of inertia changes as the ball is in motion since the axis of rotation changes relative to the center of rotational mass. As the mass rotates, it seeks to minimize its circular path. This changes the amount of torque that is then translated through a complicated kinetic friction computation. Its complicated due to varying oil conditions and different types of shells and finish on the balls.
A Quick Introduction

So check it out: I'm Bobb Shields broadcasting from Rock Hill, SC. The purpose of this blog is to track ideas and changes to my project, usually referred to as the Physics of Bowling. It is as simple as it sounds; I'm trying to derive a mathematical system to represent the real-life physics of bowling. As the rabbit hole continues down, it follows that it becomes deeper and deeper. This is very true with bowling. There are many parts of this project which are not easy. This blog should help for me to write up new ideas about how the components of the system inter-relate.
Welcome to my crazy-ness.
