  2. Triangle wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_wave

    Animation of the additive synthesis of a triangle wave with an increasing number of harmonics. See Fourier Analysis for a mathematical description.. It is possible to approximate a triangle wave with additive synthesis by summing odd harmonics of the fundamental while multiplying every other odd harmonic by −1 (or, equivalently, changing its phase by π) and multiplying the amplitude of the ...

  3. Slowly varying envelope approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slowly_varying_envelope...

    The space and time scales over which E 0 varies are generally much longer than the spatial wavelength and temporal period of the carrier wave. A numerical solution of the envelope equation thus can use much larger space and time steps, resulting in significantly less computational effort.

  4. Wave equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_equation

    By comparison with vector wave equations, the scalar wave equation can be seen as a special case of the vector wave equations; in the Cartesian coordinate system, the scalar wave equation is the equation to be satisfied by each component (for each coordinate axis, such as the x component for the x axis) of a vector wave without sources of waves ...

  5. Envelope (waves) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Envelope_(waves)

    A modulated wave resulting from adding two sine waves of identical amplitude and nearly identical wavelength and frequency. A common situation resulting in an envelope function in both space x and time t is the superposition of two waves of almost the same wavelength and frequency: [2]

  6. Wave maps equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_maps_equation

    In mathematical physics, the wave maps equation is a geometric wave equation that solves D α ∂ α u = 0 {\displaystyle D^{\alpha }\partial _{\alpha }u=0} where D {\displaystyle D} is a connection .

  7. Shallow water equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shallow_water_equations

    The dynamic wave is the full one-dimensional Saint-Venant equation. It is numerically challenging to solve, but is valid for all channel flow scenarios. The dynamic wave is used for modeling transient storms in modeling programs including Mascaret (EDF), SIC (Irstea) , HEC-RAS , [ 18 ] InfoWorks_ICM Archived 2016-10-25 at the Wayback Machine ...

  8. Ternary plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_plot

    A parallel to a side of the triangle is the locus of points constant in the component situated in the vertex opposed to the side. Each component is 100% in a corner of the triangle and 0% at the edge opposite it, decreasing linearly with increasing distance (perpendicular to the opposite edge) from this corner.

  9. MacCormack method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacCormack_method

    The application of MacCormack method to the above equation proceeds in two steps; a predictor step which is followed by a corrector step. Predictor step: In the predictor step, a "provisional" value of u {\displaystyle u} at time level n + 1 {\displaystyle n+1} (denoted by u i p {\displaystyle u_{i}^{p}} ) is estimated as follows
