Wave - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Waves travel and transfer energy from one point to another, with little or no permanent displacement of the particles of the medium (there is little or no associated mass transport); instead there are oscillations around fixed positions. For examples, waves on a string have an amplitude expressed as a distance (meters), sound waves as pressure (pascals) and electromagnetic waves as the amplitude of the electric field (volts/meter). Transverse waves are those with vibrations perpendicular to the direction of the propagation of the wave; examples include waves on a string and electromagnetic waves. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Wave   (1177 words)

The Physics Classroom When a wave is present in a medium (that is, when there is a disturbance moving through a medium), the individual particles of the medium are only temporarily displaced from their rest position. In the case of a sound wave moving from the church choir to the pews, the medium through which the sound wave travels is the air in the room. And in the case of the stadium wave, the medium through which the stadium wave travels is the fans who are in the stadium. www.physicsclassroom.com /Class/waves/u10l1b.html   (1700 words)

Sound Wave Thesis @ NaturalResearch.org (Natural Research) The amplitude of a sound wave is specified in terms of its pressure. Particles in the medium are displaced by the wave and oscillate. Sound propagates as waves of alternating pressure, causing local regions of compression and rarefaction. www.naturalresearch.org /encyclopedia/Sound_wave   (530 words)

:: Wave Waikiki Employment :: The Wave's first big name entertainer was (now Sir)"Bob Geldof and the Boomtown Rats" in April of 1981 followed soon after by "George Thorogood and the Destroyers". Anyone who has lived in Honolulu for any length of time, during the last 25 years plus, has a Wave story. Its sidewall displayed a mural based on the 19th century Japanese woodblock print, by Hokusai, "The Great Wave". www.wavewaikiki.com   (398 words)

wave - Wiktionary A wave of shoppers stampeded through the door when the store opened for its Christmas discount special. (intransitive) To wave one’s hand in greeting or departure. Gravity waves, while predicted by theory for decades, have been notoriously difficult to detect. en.wiktionary.org /wiki/wave   (329 words)

ALFVÉN WAVE : Encyclopedia Entry The wave propagates in the direction of the magnetic field, although waves exist at oblique incidence and smoothly change into the magnetosonic wave when the propagation is perpendicular to the magnetic field. An Alfvén wave in a plasma is a traveling oscillation of the ions and the magnetic field. The motion of the ions and the perturbation of the magnetic field are in the same direction and transverse to the direction of propagation. www.bibleocean.com /OmniDefinition/Alfv%c3%a9n_wave   (757 words)

Wave++ Wave++ is a carefully designed, thoroughly tested portable library of reuseable, extensible algorithms and data structures which allow the user to write efficient, fast executing programs in a wide spectrum of signal processing and data analysis applications. Wave++ is a C++ library of classes and functions designed for the serious programmer wishing to write software or scientific applications which employ the elements of wavelet analysis, time-frequency analysis or Fourier analysis. Our philosophy at the Ryerson Computrational Signal Analysis Group is that the classes and functions defined in Wave++ are constructed so as to make the writing of software which calls on wavelet based transforms as transparent as possible. www.scs.ryerson.ca /~lkolasa/CppWavelets.html   (263 words)

Wave Equation, Wave Packet Solution In the case of classical waves, either the real or the imaginary part is chosen since the wave must be real, but for application to quantum mechanical wavefunctions such as that for a free particle, the complex form may be retained. A traveling wave solution to the wave equation may be written in several different ways with different choices of related parameters. The wave velocity is determined by the properties of the medium and is independent of the other parameters, but it can be determined from measurements of the frequency and wavelength. hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu /hbase/waves/wavsol.html   (390 words)

CNN.com - Scientists eye stadium 'wave' dynamics - September 11, 2002 As the wave sweeps from one seating section to the next, fans on cue leap to their feet and raise their arms, then sit immediately as the wave rolls to the next section. The Oakland A's say the wave's first MLB appearance was at their game on October 15, 1981. And they say their conclusions apply to the wave across the board -- not only to Mexican fans, or to soccer matches. archives.cnn.com /2002/TECH/science/09/11/offbeat.wave.explained   (449 words)

WAVE File Format The WAVE format is sort of a bastardized standard that was concocted by too many "cooks" who didn't properly coordinate the addition of "ingredients" to the "soup". WAVE data may be stored without compression, in which case the sample points are stored as described in Sample Points and Sample Frames. These fields are used only for WAVE files that contain a Wave List (with multiple 'data' and 'slnt' chunks), or for a compressed file containing a 'data' chunk. www.borg.com /~jglatt/tech/wave.htm   (5320 words)

Ocean and Sea Wave Power -- Harnessing Energy from the Sea Wave Farm Potential off UK Coast- A project off the UK coast continues to provide key data for developers keen on tapping the power of the ocean waves in the Atlantic. Wave Hub for Ocean Energy - Project off the South West coast of England could lead to the creation of up to 700 jobs and contribute GBP 27 million (US$ 51 million) a year to the economy. Wave Propulsion: Brief History and Remedy - French and Russian proponents of harnessing sea wave energy provide a short history, identifying why the approach has been abandoned by major entities, and suggesting how to revive this yet-to-be-fully-actualized approach. www.freeenergynews.com /Directory/Wave   (1597 words)

Oceans of Electricity: Science News Online, April 14, 2001 There, waves retain nearly all the power they've gathered while crossing the ocean, but the sea bottom is near enough that anchoring wave-power equipment is easier and cheaper than in deeper waters. As the crest of a wave enters the cavern, it raises the water level quickly, pushing the air above the wave through the hole and spinning the turbine's blades. Waves are ultimately a form of solar energy. www.sciencenews.org /20010414/bob12.asp   (2070 words)

Coyote Buttes/The Wave - Christopher E. Brennen One of the most remarkable is a rock formation known as "The Wave", a psychedelic contortion of sandstone rock that lies on the slopes of the Coyote Buttes in the Paria Canyon - Vermillion Cliffs Wilderness Area managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). We note that "The Wave" and the hiking route to it are protected areas and can only be entered with a special permit (just ten are issued for each day). The area covered by "The Wave" is not large but you should take time to explore the various gullies where this unusual psychedelic phenomenon is most prominent. www.dankat.com /swhikes/wave.htm   (1079 words)

Microsoft WAVE soundfile format A WAVE file is often just a RIFF file with a single "WAVE" chunk which consists of two sub-chunks -- a "fmt " chunk specifying the data format and a "data" chunk containing the actual sample data. The WAVE file format is a subset of Microsoft's RIFF specification for the storage of multimedia files. The "WAVE" format consists of two subchunks: "fmt " and "data": The "fmt " subchunk describes the sound data's format: 12 4 Subchunk1ID Contains the letters "fmt " (0x666d7420 big-endian form). ccrma.stanford.edu /CCRMA/Courses/422/projects/WaveFormat   (618 words)

WAVE File Format WAVE can also contain any other chunk type allowed by RIFF, including LIST chunks, which are used to contain optional kinds of data such as the copyright date, author's name, etc. Chunks can appear in any order. For this reason, and also possibly because a simpler (or inaccurate?) description of the WAVE format was promulgated before the Win32 API was released, a lot of older programs read and write a subset of the WAVE format, which I refer to as the "canonical" WAVE format. The simplest way to write data into WAVE files produced by your own programs is to use the canonical format. www.lightlink.com /tjweber/StripWav/WAVE.html   (1293 words)

Wave Parts The wavelength of a wave is the distance between any two adjacent corresponding locations on the wave train. If ten waves are made per second, then the frequency is said to be ten cycles per second, written as 10 cps. Often, when several waves are traveling along a medium as shown above, the continuous group of waves is called a wave train. id.mind.net /~zona/mstm/physics/waves/partsOfAWave/waveParts.htm   (656 words)

Elliott Wave Analysis. S&P 500 Cash Index Levels of potential support are expected at the 989 (the 0.618-retracement of the last phase of the wave v) and 974 (the level corresponding to the 38.2 %-retracement of the wave v, which also lies close enough to the beginning of the third.A-.B-.C - pattern) cash levels. However, it should be noted here that, while not expected, the Corrective wave, which is considered to be the wave 5 v, could turn out to be a wave of a lesser degree. The most reliable target for the end of the wave.E is determined by the 0.618-relationship between the lengths of the waves.E and.D. www.elliott-wave-analysis.com /sp/03/sp0906.html   (1675 words)

Amazon.com: Wave: Music: Antonio Carlos Jobim Wave, a collection of 1967 dates featuring keyboardist Jobim backed by an extensive orchestra, straddles that line: it's full of amazing original compositions, but the arrangements have a certain faux suave, late-'60s lounge feel that reeks of stale cheese. Most of the songs on here are not jazz standards like "Girl From Ipanema" is. In fact, the only songs I would say are jazz standards are "Triste," "Wave" and maybe "Look to the Sky." So, this stands as a great introduction to the music of Jobim. While Jazz Samba and Getz/Gilberto approach bossa nova with a smaller group, Wave has more of an emphasis on orchestration of stringed instruments, which is arranged beautifully by Claus Ogerman. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000002G6J?v=glance   (1313 words)
