A: general external appearance of pendulum
B: schematic at normal temperature
C: schematic at high temperature

Materials:
Fe: iron-based steel
Zn: zinc

Actual compensation would be to maintain a constant time of swing which is dependent upon both the center of gravity and the rotational moment of inertia about the pivot point. Created for and referenced from the English Wikipedia article "Gridiron pendulum".
