This simulation allows for graphical visualisation of a 3D sinusoidal function as a wave.
There are 15 predefined functions that can be inputted from the drop-down menu, as follows:
 |
| Plane Wave x |
 |
| Plane Wave Y |
 |
| Plane Wave (direction adjustable) |
 |
| Interference Concurrent f1 |
 |
| Interference Concurrent f1 + f2 |
 |
| Interference Countercurrent f1 + f2 |
 |
| Interference Perpendicular f1 + f2 |
 |
| Interference < 90° (adjustable) |
 |
| Interference > 90° (adjustable) |
 |
| Radial Wave (Outward) |
 |
| Radial Wave (Inward) |
 |
| Radial Wave (Standing) |
 |
| Surface Wave (Outward) |
 |
| Spatial Wave (Outward) |
You can also adjust different parameters of the function to see how they affect the wave:
a: Amplitude
b: Frequency
c: Direction (only applicable to functions which allow for change in direction)
p: Simply adjusts the speed of the simulation.
In addition, the x-y plane can be toggled to more easily visualise the positive and negative parts of the wave.
