This is a visual simulation of the reflection of a wave pulse. Use the check boxes choose between a fixed end (bouncing off a more rigid medium) or a free end (bouncing off a less rigid medium).

The animations above show the entire wave pulse reflecting back into the original medium. In reality, some of the wave pulse energy would be transmitted into the new medium, and the reflected pulse …

EMANIM is a web app displaying interactive animations of electromagnetic waves and presenting phenomena such as polarization, superposition, interference, absorption, refraction, and optical …

Animation shows a plane wavefront being reflected or refracted at a plane boundary. The secondary wave front is shown as it is formed. Drag at the boundary to change the width of the wavefront.

Animation depicting the reflection and transmission of longitudinal waves. In this finite element simulation, the body is discretised into smaller, manageable elements, allowing for the application of …

The animation below depicts a pulse moving through a medium which is free to move at its end. The animation depicts a boundary behavior phenomenon. The pulse reflects off the free end and returns …

Waves in a string are discussed in this support page to the multimedia chapter Travelling Waves in the volume Waves and Sound. It gives background information and further details on equations, linear …

Aug 21, 2025 · I learned how to use Mathematica to create animations of waves and oscillation phenomena from Dr. Victor Sparrow, my PhD advisor at Penn State. Here is collection of several of …
