Types of Waves: In Physics, waves are a fundamental phenomena that describes the transmission of energy and information through a medium of an empty space. These waves are characterised by their ...

A large number of things—some desirable, some not—can happen to a radio wave on its way from one place to another. In the simplest case two antennas (a transmitter and a receiver) are located so that ...

It is fitting in a book about wireless communication to look at the phenomena that lets us transfer information from one point to another without any physical medium—the propagation of radio waves. If ...

A unique propagation phenomenon of acoustic waves has been discovered, paving the way for developing advanced communication technologies using acoustic devices. The research, published in Physical ...

A research team has discovered a new type of sound wave: the airborne sound wave vibrates transversely and carries both spin and orbital angular momentum like light does. The findings shattered ...

Skoltech researchers have theoretically predicted synchronization—a kind of self-regulation—in detonation waves. The discovery could help tame this inherently chaotic process so as to stabilize ...

SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, Vol. 47, No. 6 (Dec., 1987), pp. 1241-1286 (46 pages) We consider nonadiabatic premixed flame propagation in a long cylindrical channel. A steadily propagating ...

Pressure waves propagating through bubble-containing liquids in tubes experience considerable attenuation. Researchers have now derived an equation describing this phenomenon, demonstrating that ...
