Fourier Series: String Harmonics & Superposition

In ECE 210, you learn that periodic signals can be expressed as a sum of harmonics ($n\omega_0$). Adjust the amplitudes of the fundamental frequency and its integer-multiple harmonics below to see how they superimpose to create complex standing waves on a string.

f(x,t) = Σ F_n · sin(n·π·x/L) · cos(n·ω_0·t)
