Open Science

We are pleased to share an open education exploring the immense significance of stationary (standing) waves in Physics.

This video series provides a comprehensive journey through various phenomena, demonstrating the concept's relevance from mechanical systems (1D, 2D, 3D) to quantum mechanics (atomic orbitals). It is suitable for advanced high school and university-level study.

The resource includes engaging experiments and detailed Blender animations to illustrate core concepts like normal modes, Fourier analysis, and physical phenomena such as:

1. Stationary Waves in 1D: Harmonics in strings.

2. Stationary Waves in 2D: Chladni plate patterns.

3. Stationary Waves in 3D: Kundt's tube demonstrations.

Our group is featured in this video that highlights the core mission of university institutions: cutting-edge research and innovation. The video provides an exclusive look inside the Faculty of Physical Sciences at the Complutense University of Madrid, showcasing seven distinct research teams, including ours. It serves to illustrate the vast and diverse scientific contributions being made across the university's laboratories.
