FUNDAMENTALS OF ACOUSTICS
LECTURE F.1
HARMONIC MOTION
Harmonic mo�on = periodic mo�on with the same amplitude (e.g. mass-spring system).
Cosine func�on harmonic.
TIME AVERAGED SIGNAL
Integrate harmonic mo�on over �me. The displacement is squared, otherwise we would get just 0.
t0 = sufficiently long �me interval.
COMPLEX NUMBERS
The displacement s(t) can be writen as a complex number, with ‘e’ = complex exponen�al.
The physical signal is the real value of the complex signal:
𝑠𝑠̂ = |s| = amplitude of the signal
ωt + ϕ = phase of the signal
Real part = the projec�on on the x
axis = 𝑠𝑠̂ ∙ cos (ωt + φ)
Imaginary part = the projec�on on
the y axis = 𝑠𝑠̂ ∙ sin (ωt + φ)
