  2. Harmonic conjugate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_conjugate

    Equivalently, is conjugate to in if and only if and satisfy the Cauchy–Riemann equations in . As an immediate consequence of the latter equivalent definition, if is any harmonic function on , the function is conjugate to for then the Cauchy–Riemann equations are just = and the symmetry of the mixed second order derivatives, =.

  3. Harmonic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_function

    The descriptor "harmonic" in the name harmonic function originates from a point on a taut string which is undergoing harmonic motion.The solution to the differential equation for this type of motion can be written in terms of sines and cosines, functions which are thus referred to as harmonics.

  4. Harmonic mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_mean

    As an example, if a gas-powered pump can drain a pool in 4 hours and a battery-powered pump can drain the same pool in 6 hours, then it will take both pumps ⁠ 6·4 / 6 + 4 ⁠, which is equal to 2.4 hours, to drain the pool together. This is one-half of the harmonic mean of 6 and 4: ⁠ 2·6·4 / 6 + 4 ⁠ = 4.8. That is, the appropriate ...

  5. Harmonic series (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_series_(mathematics)

    [2] [4] Oresme's work, and the contemporaneous work of Richard Swineshead on a different series, marked the first appearance of infinite series other than the geometric series in mathematics. [5] However, this achievement fell into obscurity. [6] Additional proofs were published in the 17th century by Pietro Mengoli [2] [7] and by Jacob Bernoulli.

  6. Quartal and quintal harmony - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartal_and_quintal_harmony

    The terms quartal and quintal imply a contrast, either compositional or perceptual, with traditional harmonic constructions based on thirds: listeners familiar with music of the common practice period are guided by tonalities constructed with familiar elements: the chords that make up major and minor scales, all in turn built from major and minor thirds.

  7. Harmony - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmony

    [5] In popular and jazz harmony, chords are named by their root plus various terms and characters indicating their qualities. In many types of music, notably baroque, romantic, modern, and jazz, chords are often augmented with "tensions". A tension is an additional chord member that creates a relatively dissonant interval in relation to the bass.

  8. Harmonics (electrical power) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonics_(electrical_power)

    In a normal alternating current power system, the current varies sinusoidally at a specific frequency, usually 50 or 60 hertz.When a linear time-invariant electrical load is connected to the system, it draws a sinusoidal current at the same frequency as the voltage, although not always in phase with the voltage).

  9. Fifth Harmony - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_Harmony

    Fifth Harmony, often shortened to 5H, was an American girl group based in Miami, composed of Ally Brooke, Normani, Dinah Jane, Lauren Jauregui, and formerly Camila Cabello until her departure from the group in December 2016.
