  2. Acoustic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_resonance

    This is a classic demonstration of resonance. A glass has a natural resonance, a frequency at which the glass will vibrate easily. Therefore the glass needs to be moved by the sound wave at that frequency. If the force from the sound wave making the glass vibrate is big enough, the size of the vibration will become so large that the glass ...

  3. Resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance

    Increase of amplitude as damping decreases and frequency approaches resonant frequency of a driven damped simple harmonic oscillator. [1] [2]Resonance is a phenomenon that occurs when an object or system is subjected to an external force or vibration that matches its resonant frequency, defined as the frequency that generates the maximum amplitude response in the system.

  4. Room modes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_modes

    Most rooms have their fundamental resonances in the 20 Hz to 200 Hz region, each frequency being related to one or more of the room's dimensions or a divisor thereof. These resonances affect the low-frequency low-mid-frequency response of a sound system in the room and are one of the biggest obstacles to accurate sound reproduction.

  5. Q factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor

    The Q factor is a parameter that describes the resonance behavior of an underdamped harmonic oscillator (resonator). Sinusoidally driven resonators having higher Q factors resonate with greater amplitudes (at the resonant frequency) but have a smaller range of frequencies around that frequency for which they resonate; the range of frequencies for which the oscillator resonates is called the ...

  6. String vibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_vibration

    Resonance causes a vibrating string to produce a sound with constant frequency, i.e. constant pitch. If the length or tension of the string is correctly adjusted, the sound produced is a musical tone. Vibrating strings are the basis of string instruments such as guitars, cellos, and pianos.

  7. Thin-film bulk acoustic resonator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thin-film_bulk_acoustic...

    This was an enabler for tighter frequency control, for needs to use higher frequencies and utilising FBAR resonators. With the development of thin film technologies it was possible to keep the Q factor high enough, leave out the crystal and increase resonance frequency.

  8. Sympathetic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sympathetic_resonance

    The effect is most noticeable when the two bodies are tuned in unison or an octave apart (corresponding to the first and second harmonics, integer multiples of the inducing frequency), as there is the greatest similarity in vibrational frequency. Sympathetic resonance is an example of injection locking occurring between coupled oscillators, in ...

  9. Vocal resonation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vocal_resonation

    Chest resonance adds richer, darker, and deeper tone coloring for a sense of power, warmth, and sensuality. It creates a feeling of depth and drama in the voice. Nasal (mask resonance) is present at all times in a well-produced tone [citation needed], except perhaps in pure head tone or at very soft volume. Nasal resonance is bright and edgy ...
