  2. Resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance

    Pushing a person in a swing is a common example of resonance. The loaded swing, a pendulum, has a natural frequency of oscillation, its resonant frequency, and resists being pushed at a faster or slower rate. A familiar example is a playground swing, which acts as a pendulum. Pushing a person in a swing in time with the natural interval of the ...

  3. Bloch equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloch_equations

    In physics and chemistry, specifically in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and electron spin resonance (ESR), the Bloch equations are a set of macroscopic equations that are used to calculate the nuclear magnetization M = (M x, M y, M z) as a function of time when relaxation times T 1 and T 2 are present.

  4. Resonances in scattering from potentials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonances_in_scattering...

    In quantum mechanics, resonance cross section occurs in the context of quantum scattering theory, which deals with studying the scattering of quantum particles from potentials. The scattering problem deals with the calculation of flux distribution of scattered particles/waves as a function of the potential, and of the state (characterized by ...

  5. Farey sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farey_sequence

    In physical systems with resonance phenomena, Farey sequences provide a very elegant and efficient method to compute resonance locations in 1D [17] and 2D. [ 18 ] Farey sequences are prominent in studies of any-angle path planning on square-celled grids, for example in characterizing their computational complexity [ 19 ] or optimality. [ 20 ]

  6. Cavity perturbation theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavity_perturbation_theory

    It is convenient to denote cavity frequencies with a complex number ~ = /, where = (~) is the angular resonant frequency and = (~) is the inverse of the mode lifetime. Cavity perturbation theory has been initially proposed by Bethe-Schwinger in optics [1], and Waldron in the radio frequency domain. [2]

  7. Mie scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mie_scattering

    In such a scheme, the negative constitutive parameters are designed to appear around the Mie resonances of the inclusions: the negative effective permittivity is designed around the resonance of the Mie electric dipole scattering coefficient, whereas negative effective permeability is designed around the resonance of the Mie magnetic dipole ...

  8. Mechanical resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_resonance

    Mechanical resonance is the tendency of a mechanical system to respond at greater amplitude when the frequency of its oscillations matches the system's natural frequency of vibration (its resonance frequency or resonant frequency) closer than it does other frequencies. It may cause violent swaying motions and potentially catastrophic failure in ...

  9. Principles of Electronics - Wikipedia
