- Abstract:
The EJS Oscillator Chain model shows a one-dimensional linear array of coupled harmonic oscillators with fixed ends. This model can be used to study the propagation of waves in a continuous medium and the vibrational modes of a crystalline lattice. The EJS model shown here contains 31 coupled oscillators equally spaced within the interval [0, 2 pi] with fixed ends.
