Cluster influences on the internal dynamics of a galaxyAs part of a study of cluster influences, an attempt is made to map out damage to a galaxy under several different kinds of buffeting a galaxy suffers as it sweeps along its orbit through a cluster. It is shown that a cluster's observational characteristics are determined by the shape of its gravitational potential. It is noted the model galaxy must have full freedom to do whatever the physical galaxy wants to do.
