Oscillations in a sentence

A resonant circuit by itself is "almost" an oscillator; it can store energy in the form of electronic oscillations if excited, but because it has electrical resistance and other losses the oscillations are damped and decay to zero.

Depending on the geometry there are two basic types of whistles, those that generate sound though oscillations of fluid mass flow and those that generate sound through oscillations of the force applied to the surrounding medium.

No oscillations were detected and the authors concluded that the theory of stellar oscillations may need to be reconsidered.

This could make plausible, how a bigger (periodic) jerk might excite a bigger amplitude of the oscillations, because any small oscillations are damped before they get reinforced by another amplitude of the shock wave.

Essentially, you’re reprogramming your entire body, improving and standardizing circadian oscillations at the cellular level, and within many different systems.

Listening to different musical genres has been shown to induce spatiotemporal sense and trunk oscillations in the gait of PD patients.

The storm’s the large wind field means that oscillations east or west will affect the storm’s severity on land.

Slow, synchronous oscillations of electrical voltage that occur during deep sleep control this process.

My hunch is that the oscillations are due to the discrete nature of the problem, when the border between the yellow and blue regimes in that first graph shifts.

These electronic oscillations, or surface plasmon resonances, efficiently convert light to heat.

All the remaining units in the International System of Units (the SI) that today have dependencies upon the kilogram and the joule would also fall in place, their magnitudes ultimately defined, in part, in terms of photon oscillations rather than the IPK.

Although individual experiments, such as the set of solar neutrino experiments, are consistent with non-oscillatory mechanisms of neutrino flavor conversion, taken altogether, neutrino experiments imply the existence of neutrino oscillations.

A monopole-like sound field is generated by volumetric flow rate oscillations.

An air jet is directed at a sharp edge setting up flow oscillations as in the edge tone.

A study has also been done involving direct current stimulation to the prefrontal cortex to increase the amount of slow oscillations during SWS.

At λ/14, the oscillations will cycle every fourteenth wave, while at λ/8 they will cycle every eighth.

Banks are generally adequately capitalized, but remain vulnerable due to their overexposure to the cotton sector, the prices of which are subject to significant oscillations.

Bunches of electrons passing by the openings to the cavities excite radio wave oscillations in the cavity, much as a guitar's strings excite sound in its sound box.

Coriolis effects are therefore present, and make the atoms move in a direction perpendicular to the original oscillations.

Cosmology, Steven Weinberg, Oxford University Press, 2008 Confirmatory evidence has been found in baryon acoustic oscillations and other new results about the clustering of galaxies.
