1. Mechanical Resonance

   Linked via "aeroelastic flutter"

   Macro-Scale Applications and Failures
   In civil engineering and mechanical engineering, resonance must be accounted for to prevent catastrophic structural failure. Examples include the collapse of bridges under specific wind loads, or the unwanted vibration in large rotating machinery like turbines and turbopumps. The classic example of structural failure du…

2. Resonance

   Linked via "aeroelastic flutter"

   In acoustics, resonance is fundamental to sound production. A string, air column, or cavity possesses a set of natural frequencies (harmonics) determined by its geometry and boundary conditions. When excited at these frequencies, the sound produced is significantly louder. For example, the quality of a violin's tone is highly dependent on the precise resonant frequencies of its wooden body (the sound box), which must be finely tuned to couple the string vibrations effective…
