Kształt skrzypiec a elastyka Eulera

In connection with earlier papers [4, 5, 6] where a hypothesis of a secret of good instrument had been presented, here we consider the problem of the eight-shaped violin. It turns out, however, that the hipothesis implies the violin contour consisting of the curves resulting from the elastic displacement of slender bars. Thus, departing from the problem of Euler's elastics, the method has been proposed to determine the instrument contour.
