  • Here a small dish of water is mounted on a speaker and vibrated at different frequencies. At specific frequencies standing waves are created. The frequency is dependent on the depth of the water, the size of the dish, and speed of waves in the liquid. Many modes of oscillation are possible in the same dish of water.

  • Sand patterns formed from vibrating a square sheet of thin metal. These formations, known as Chladni patterns, occur when fine particles, such as grains of sand or salt, form a unique pattern in response to pure tone vibrations such as musical notes. This sand was placed on a metal plate that was vibrated at different frequency. When the plat is driven at a resonate frequency the sand grains will collect in the nodes. Chladni Oscillations are a standing wave pattern visualized by vibrating a metal plate. The nodes and anti-nodes of the oscillation are made visible my placing sand grains on the plate. This technique for visualizing sound waves was discovered by Ernst Florens Friedrich Chladni (1756 - 1827) also know for his work with the speed of sound.

  • Thin film interference on soap film. Bands of color are created by white light shining on a film of soap. Some of the light reflects off the surface of the film, while the rest of the light travels through the film and reflects off the back of the film. The colors are caused by light waves interfering with each other in a process called optical interference. The different colors are caused by different thickness of the soap film.

  • Chemical waves in a Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reagent. This is a well-mixed solution of citric acid, potassium bromate and a cerium sulphate catalyst. If the local relative concentrations in the reagent are altered, for example by the impact of a dust particle on the surface, the equilibrium of the reaction is disturbed. The reaction then oscillates between oxidation and reduction. The oscillation propagates through the solution as a concentration front (yellow lines), caused by the dynamic coupling between the propagation rate of the reaction and the rates of diffusion of the reagents. Such chemical waves may be modeled using chaos mathematics.  This image is part of a series.

  • The inside of a magnetron removed from a microwave oven.  The magnetron is a device that creates microwave radiation. A magnetron consists of an electron tube surrounded by a magnet. As electrons are released from the heated cathode they are forced to take a spiral path to the anode by the magnetic field, creating microwaves. This magnetron creates a microwave radiation that is the same frequency as a water molecule vibrates.  When water is exposed to just the right frequency, the water molecules will gain kinetic energy and become hotter.

  • The anti-reflection structures on the surface of one eye element on the head of a female mosquito.  (family Culicidae).  These bump structures interact with the wave nature of light to increase the transmission of light into the eye by decreasing the reflected light.  Structures such as this are beginning to be incorporated into modern optical devices    This is a scanning electron microscope image.  The calibration bar is 1 um and the magnification is 9220 x.

  • A .22 caliber bullet is fired from a rifle.  The schlieren optical system images different air pressures with different colors of light.  The clear bow wave in front of the bullets shows that the bullet is moving faster than the speed of sound.  The exact velocity of this supersonic bullet can be calculated from measurements of the bow wake angle.

  • A spinning golf ball is flow tested in a two dimensional fluid flow. The colors relate to different pressures in the fluid. In this case the low-pressure area created by the Magnus effect contributes to the flight of the golf ball by creating lift. The rotating golf ball lift allows the ball to travel further. A high-speed flash at 1/15,000th of a second captures the action.

  • “Yooperlite” is the common name for syenite rich in fluorescent sodalite. These specimens of fluorescent sodalite were recently discovered Michigan.<br />
The specimen was illuminated with shortwave ultraviolet light (UV) that cannot be detected with the camera used for this image. The tissues in the plant absorbed the UV light and fluoresced in the visible spectrum. This technique is called ultraviolet light induced visible light fluorescence (UVIVLF) and is often used in biology to detect unique compounds in samples. This image is part of a series.

  • A special compression driver speaker is mounted to the left of the glass.  When the speaker is set to the resonance of the glass - vibrations will constructively interfere with each other until the glass breaks.  This demonstration takes a special speaker, a frequency generator, and an amplifier that can drive the speaker at 120 watts.  The action is captured with a high speed flash operating at 1/20,000th of a second. This image is one out of a set of two showing before and during the glass shattering..
