Abstract
Two classical mechanical systems—block-and-tackle machines and nonlinear oscillators—exhibit renormalization of numerical parameters. A simple one-dimensional integral illustrates several other facets of renormalization (regularization, renormalization group, resummation). These examples provide insight for students and non-specialists into the workings of a subtle, complicated and historically misunderstood subject.
