  2. Particle displacement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_displacement

    Particle displacement or displacement amplitude is a measurement of distance of the movement of a sound particle from its equilibrium position in a medium as it ...

  3. Sound pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_pressure

    The particle displacement of a progressive sine wave is given by (,) = ⁡ (+,), where . is the amplitude of the particle displacement,, is the phase shift of the particle displacement,

  4. Displacement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement

    Particle displacement, a measurement of distance of the movement of a particle in a medium as it transmits a wave (represented in mathematics by the lower-case Greek letter ξ) Displacement field (mechanics), an assignment of displacement vectors for all points in a body that is displaced from one state to another

  5. Sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound

    Sound is defined as "(a) Oscillation in pressure, stress, particle displacement, particle velocity, etc., propagated in a medium with internal forces (e.g., elastic or viscous), or the superposition of such propagated oscillation. (b) Auditory sensation evoked by the oscillation described in (a)."

  6. Sound intensity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_intensity

    Sound intensity is defined as the time averaged product of sound pressure and acoustic particle velocity. [8] Both quantities can be directly measured by using a sound intensity p-u probe comprising a microphone and a particle velocity sensor , or estimated indirectly by using a p-p probe that approximates the particle velocity by integrating ...

  7. Acoustic wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_wave

    An acoustic wave is a mechanical wave that transmits energy through the movements of atoms and molecules. Acoustic waves transmit through fluids in a longitudinal manner (movement of particles are parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave); in contrast to electromagnetic waves that transmit in transverse manner (movement of particles at a right angle to the direction of propagation ...

  8. Sound particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_particle

    In the context of particle displacement and velocity, a sound particle is an imaginary infinitesimal volume of a medium that shares the movement of the medium in response to the presence of sound at a specified point or in a specified region. Sound particles are not molecules in the physical or chemical sense; they do not have defined physical ...

  9. Particle velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_velocity

    The particle displacement of a progressive sine wave is given by (,) = ⁡ (+,),where is the amplitude of the particle displacement;, is the phase shift of the particle displacement;
