Waves are ubiquitous in nature, allowing us to see, hear and observe. Because of such pervasiveness, the need to study how waves work proves to be an important one Nonlinear Waves in Bounded Media ...

So far we have mainly considered a sound wave to be a sinusoidal wave at a particular frequency. This is useful as it allows us to consider aspects of sound propagation in terms of the wavelength.

Waves transfer energy from one place to another. Light from the Sun travels through space and through the atmosphere, transferring energy to the Earth and other planets. Sound travels from a ...
