(Odd) harmonics of a 1000 Hz square wave Graph showing the first 3 terms of the Fourier series of a square wave Using Fourier expansion with cycle frequency f over time t , an ideal square wave with an amplitude of 1 can be represented as an infinite sum of sinusoidal waves: x ( t ) = 4 π ∑ k = 1 ∞ sin ( 2 π ( 2 k − 1 ) f t ) 2 k ...
A square wave (represented as the blue dot) is approximated by its sixth partial sum (represented as the purple dot), formed by summing the first six terms (represented as arrows) of the square wave's Fourier series. Each arrow starts at the vertical sum of all the arrows to its left (i.e. the previous partial sum).

Given an open subset U of R n and a subinterval I of R, one says that a function u : U × I → R is a solution of the heat equation if = + +, where (x 1, ..., x n, t) denotes a general point of the domain.
An example application of the Fourier transform is determining the constituent pitches in a musical waveform.This image is the result of applying a constant-Q transform (a Fourier-related transform) to the waveform of a C major piano chord.
The wave equation is a second-order linear partial differential equation for the description of waves or standing wave fields such as mechanical waves (e.g. water waves, sound waves and seismic waves) or electromagnetic waves (including light waves). It arises in fields like acoustics, electromagnetism, and fluid dynamics.
A widespread anecdote says that when the Fourier coefficients for a square wave were input to the machine, the graph would oscillate at the discontinuities, and that because it was a physical device subject to manufacturing flaws, Michelson was convinced that the overshoot was caused by errors in the machine.
