Tsar Bell Simulation

An illustration of basic bell sound physics with a model of the 1732 Tsar Bell. The historic bell cracked and never rang, but this simulation represents an educated guess at what it might have sounded like.

Imagine if this huge monster was actually a swinging bell. Oh damn, imagine all the power you would need to pull the bell to rotate it at the time.

Such an powerful sound! That would be the ultimate bell! It would be heard in all of even the largest city!

One legend I heard was it will ring on Judgement Day

Honestly, the sound is a bit pleasant to listen to, sounds like the perfect backing sound to a slow, chill or lounge techno track.

Imagine if they were able to repair the Tsar bell, and then hang it in a tower to ring it! Imagine how many tourists would be heading to Russia to hear the bell. :o Not that this would really happen, but it's not impossible!

Magnificent work of passion. I am sure it took you hours of hard work for I had tried a simpler version and that is why I surely appreciate what you had done here. Thanks. It is divinely pleasant.

[Bdpfrfish]

I love how it goes left and right on my speakers

[Shunteration]

Sounds very mournful, for some reason.

[Mizantrop__]

Well, that sounds colossaly treacherous. I love it!

[GamingFreak]

Would it even have been technically possible to ring such a massive bell? Surely this would have required an extremely powerful motor, if not several?

[sxyslyvxn]

According to one legend I heard the bell will be repaired and ring again on Judgement Day

i'm so happy that there's no mizuki fans here, so i can enjoy some bell noises

[amenophis_factorem]

Someone needs to re-cast that bell. It needs to be playes

[BlackStarASMR]

How would a bell with an height of 1000 meters sound like?

[mortenhansen]

Sounds like something out of a war movie. Very eerie!

[delphicdescant]

If this is a simulation, what software or simulation library (or algorithm) was used to simulate it?

I'm looking for info in order to run my own acoustic bell simulation for another bell.

[jimborambo]

Sounds like somebody is going to get buried. Tsar bell is truly doomed

[eightsavealgo-trading]

I think this is how it's going to be sounded on Doomsday according to one legend

[Zuzuyatts]

I can hear the Boris Godunov coronation starting...

[kamaifreire]

Pardon my ignorance, but a Bell that huge, wasn't it supposed to keep ringing a very long time after the last ring?
