oscillation - use in sentences

Converse of object

  • damp: The damped oscillations will be studied in greater detail in section 8.2.
  • induce: Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields which induce oscillations of the dipole.
  • undergo: When the mass is pulled downwards to an extension of x, the mass undergoes vertical oscillations, which obey SHM.
  • sustain: The signal is either inverter or not inverted to obtain the necessary total phase shift around the loop to sustain oscillations.

Adjective modifier

  • quasi-biennial: I have investigated the modulation by the quasi-biennial oscillation of the tropical winds of the isentropic mixing in the tropics and subtropics.
  • self-excited: Prof. J.E. Ffowcs Williams Prof. A.P. Dowling Acoustic waves often play a major rĂ´le in the self-excited oscillations of fluid flows.
  • sinusoidal: Forcing is applied to the system through vertical sinusoidal oscillations at the suspension point.
  • circadian: Our recent unpublished advances include: Imaging circadian oscillations of cytosolic free calcium.
  • torsional: In any case, no torsional oscillations were noticeable during rowing trials.
  • spurious: The numerical method then must be able to handle discontinuities without introducing non-physical, spurious oscillations.

Modifies a noun

  • amplitude: These are minima - areas of minimum oscillation amplitude.
  • frequency: A sharp, tapered probe was used with an oscillation frequency of 30 Hz.
  • experiment: I did my PhD on the neutrino oscillation experiment CHORUS, at CERN.
  • angle: Type in the width of the oscillation angle for all frames in each segment.

Noun used with modifier

  • neutrino: Explain how both of these problems could be resolved by possible neutrino oscillations.
  • commensurability: For a normal field, the commensurability oscillations are weak and out of phase for transport in the different cleavage directions.
  • gamma: Several mechanisms have been put forward for gamma oscillations.
  • amplitude: The system is not completely stable: one observes small amplitude oscillations around equilibrium.
  • calcium: Fran Tracy has just finished her Ph.D. funded by the BBSRC to investigate the role of calcium oscillations in salt stress.
  • relaxation: In the case of normal mode vibration derived from a relaxation oscillation, we need low-frequency tuning of the attached oscillator.
