  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. Additive synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Additive_synthesis

    Schematic diagram of additive synthesis. The inputs to the oscillators are frequencies and amplitudes .. Harmonic additive synthesis is closely related to the concept of a Fourier series which is a way of expressing a periodic function as the sum of sinusoidal functions with frequencies equal to integer multiples of a common fundamental frequency.

  4. File:Commutative diagram of harmonic wave properties.svg

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Commutative_diagram...

    English: This diagram describes the relationships between the various properties of harmonic waves: frequency, period, wavelength, angular frequency, and wavenumber. The properties are organized in three axes: linear properties on the left, and their angular equivalents on the right;

  5. Wavenumber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavenumber

    In the physical sciences, the wavenumber (or wave number), also known as repetency, [1] is the spatial frequency of a wave. Ordinary wavenumber is defined as the number of wave cycles divided by length; it is a physical quantity with dimension of reciprocal length , expressed in SI units of cycles per metre or reciprocal metre (m −1 ).

  6. Spacetime triangle diagram technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacetime_triangle_diagram...

    This yields the generic solution expressed via a double integral over a triangle domain in the bounded-coordinate—time space. Then this domain is replaced by a more complicated but smaller one, in which the integrant is essentially nonzero, found using a strictly formalized procedure involving specific spacetime triangle diagrams (see, e.g ...

  7. Relaxation oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relaxation_oscillator

    Relaxation oscillators are generally used to produce low frequency signals for such applications as blinking lights and electronic beepers. During the vacuum tube era they were used as oscillators in electronic organs and horizontal deflection circuits and time bases for CRT oscilloscopes; one of the most common was the Miller integrator circuit invented by Alan Blumlein, which used vacuum ...

  8. Sawtooth wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sawtooth_wave

    The sawtooth wave (or saw wave) is a kind of non-sinusoidal waveform. It is so named based on its resemblance to the teeth of a plain-toothed saw with a zero rake angle. A single sawtooth, or an intermittently triggered sawtooth, is called a ramp waveform. The convention is that a sawtooth wave ramps upward and then sharply drops.

  9. 3-j symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-j_symbol

    The triangular delta {j 1 j 2 j 3} is equal to 1 when the triad (j 1, j 2, j 3) satisfies the triangle conditions, and is zero otherwise. The triangular delta itself is sometimes confusingly called [ 4 ] a "3- j symbol" (without the m ) in analogy to 6- j and 9- j symbols, all of which are irreducible summations of 3- jm symbols where no m ...
