  2. 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 ...

  3. Clar's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clar's_rule

    Clar's rule states that for a benzenoid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (i.e. one with only hexagonal rings), the resonance structure with the largest number of disjoint aromatic π-sextets is the most important to characterize its chemical and physical properties. Such a resonance structure is called a Clar structure. In other words, a ...

  4. Vibration of plates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibration_of_plates

    Vibration mode of a clamped square plate. The vibration of plates is a special case of the more general problem of mechanical vibrations.The equations governing the motion of plates are simpler than those for general three-dimensional objects because one of the dimensions of a plate is much smaller than the other two.

  5. 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 ...

  6. Natural resonance theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_Resonance_Theory

    Below is an example of how NRT may generate a list of resonance structures. (1) Given an input wavefunction, NRT creates a list of reference Lewis structures. The LEWIS option tests each structure and rejects those that do not conform to the Lewis bonding theory (i.e., those that do not fulfill the octet rule , pose unreasonable formal charges ...

  7. Mathematical structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_structure

    In mathematics, a structure on a set (or on some sets) refers to providing it (or them) with certain additional features (e.g. an operation, relation, metric, or topology). Τhe additional features are attached or related to the set (or to the sets), so as to provide it (or them) with some additional meaning or significance.

  8. Bound state in the continuum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bound_state_in_the_continuum

    Two modes of the same symmetry of one and the same structure approach each other when the parameters of the structure are changed, and at some point an anti-crossing occurs. In this case, BIC is formed on one of the branches, since the modes as if compensate each other, being in antiphase and radiating into the same radiation channel. [24] [25]

  9. Harmonic analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_analysis

    Harmonic analysis is a branch of mathematics concerned with investigating the connections between a function and its representation in frequency.The frequency representation is found by using the Fourier transform for functions on unbounded domains such as the full real line or by Fourier series for functions on bounded domains, especially periodic functions on finite intervals.
