Sentence examples for transverse oscillations from inspiring English sources

Electromagnetic waves, then, are transverse oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields.

Polarization refers to the orientation of the oscillations in a transverse wave; all electromagnetic waves are transverse oscillations of electric and magnetic fields.

The inferred physical properties of the ether were problematic to support the high-frequency transverse oscillations of light, it would have to be very rigid, but its lack of effect on planetary motion and the fact that it was not observed in any terrestrial circumstances required it to be tenuous and chemically undetectable.

These transverse oscillations are sensitive to the location of the moveable seafloor.

Small-scale seafloor movement usually induces small longitudinal oscillations, but evident larger transverse oscillations.

If the cylinder is something flexible like a telephone or power cable, it will move to and fro under this force; the singing noise produced by cables in high winds is due to a resonance between their natural frequency of transverse oscillation and the frequency of eddy shedding.

The breathing was modelled by a 2-mm transverse oscillation of the whole ventricle [17].

In this case there is a dependence of the transmission on the transverse oscillation frequency and phase of the particles.

Since the dominant vibration component of the shell is usually the transverse oscillation, a new transverse mode shape function is defined.
