Abstract
This paper demonstrates a variation of the rubber sheet experiment (Gravitational Waves Work Like This Drill on Spandex) for measuring the properties of modelled gravitational waves. Mechanically induced waves on the rubber sheet are observed by a high-speed camera and the slow-motion videos are analysed with the Tracker program. We describe the theoretical background and the execution of the measurement process. The measured displacements are suitable for modelling real gravitational-wave signals and determinating properties of the sources.
