Item Picture
written by B. Surendranath
This applet illustrates Lissajous figures, the patterns created by an object oscillating in two or more dimensions. In this applet, the amplitude and angular frequency of the motion in the x- and y- directions can be changed, as well as a phase shift between the oscillations in the different directions.

This is part of a large collection of physics and math applets by the author.
