Fourier Series
When the French mathematician Joseph Fourier (1768–1830) was trying to solve a problem in heat conduction, he needed to express a function f as an infinite series of sine and cosine functions:
1

f x

a0 n 1

a n cos nx a1 cos x b1 sin x

bn sin nx a3 cos 3x b3 sin 3x

a0

a2 cos 2x b2 sin 2x

Earlier, Daniel Bernoulli and Leonard Euler had used such series while investigating problems concerning vibrating strings and astronomy. The series in Equation 1 is called a trigonometric series or Fourier series and it turns out that expressing a function as a Fourier series is sometimes more advantageous than expanding it as a power series. In particular, astronomical phenomena are usually periodic, as are heartbeats, tides, and vibrating strings, so it makes sense to express them in terms of periodic functions. We start by assuming that the trigonometric series converges and has a continuous function f x as its sum on the interval , , that is,

Our aim is to find formulas for the coefficients a n and bn in terms of f . Recall that for a power series f x cn x a n we found a formula for the coefficients in terms of derivn atives: cn f a n!. Here we use integrals. If we integrate both sides of Equation 2 and assume that it’s permissible to integrate the series term-by-term, we get

We have derived Formulas 3, 5, and 6 assuming f is a continuous function such that Equation 2 holds and for which the term-by-term integration is legitimate. But we can still consider the Fourier series of a wider class of functions: A piecewise continuous function on a, b is continuous except perhaps for a finite number of removable or jump discontinuities. (In other words, the function has no infinite discontinuities. See Section 2.5 for a discussion of the different types of discontinuities.)

FIGURE 2 Partial sums of the Fourier series for the square-wave function

We see that, as n increases, Sn x becomes a better approximation to the square-wave function. It appears that the graph of Sn x is approaching the graph of f x , except where x 0 or x is an integer multiple of . In other words, it looks as if f is equal to the sum of its Fourier series except at the points where f is discontinuous. The following theorem, which we state without proof, says that this is typical of the Fourier series of piecewise continuous functions. Recall that a piecewise continuous function has only a finite number of jump discontinuities on , . At a number a where f has a jump discontinuity, the one-sided limits exist and we use the notation f a xla lim f x

8 Fourier Convergence Theorem If f is a periodic function with period 2 and f and f are piecewise continuous on , , then the Fourier series (7) is convergent. The sum of the Fourier series is equal to f x at all numbers x where f is continuous. At the numbers x where f is discontinuous, the sum of the Fourier series is the average of the right and left limits, that is

Fourier Series and Music
One of the main uses of Fourier series is in solving some of the differential equations that arise in mathematical physics, such as the wave equation and the heat equation. (This is covered in more advanced courses.) Here we explain briefly how Fourier series play a role in the analysis and synthesis of musical sounds. We hear a sound when our eardrums vibrate because of variations in air pressure. If a guitar string is plucked, or a bow is drawn across a violin string, or a piano string is struck, the string starts to vibrate. These vibrations are amplified and transmitted to the air. The resulting air pressure fluctuations arrive at our eardrums and are converted into electrical impulses that are processed by the brain. How is it, then, that we can distinguish between a note of a given pitch produced by two different musical instruments? The graphs in Figure 4 show these fluctuations (deviations from average air pressure) for a flute and a violin playing the same sustained note D (294 vibrations per second) as functions of time. Such graphs are called waveforms and we see that the variations in air pressure are quite different from each other. In particular, the violin waveform is more complex than that of the flute.

FIGURE 4 Waveforms

(a) Flute

(b) Violin

We gain insight into the differences between waveforms if we express them as sums of Fourier series: Pt a0 a1 cos t L b1 sin t L a2 cos 2 t L b2 sin 2 t L

In doing so, we are expressing the sound as a sum of simple pure sounds. The difference in sounds between two instruments can be attributed to the relative sizes of the Fourier coefficients of the respective waveforms. The n th term of the Fourier series, that is, a n cos n t L bn n t L

is called the nth harmonic of P. The amplitude of the n th harmonic is An and its square, A2 n a2 n

b2 , is sometimes called energy of the n th harmonic. (Notice that n

bn and for a Fourier series with only sine terms, as in Example 1, the amplitude is A n the energy is A2 b 2.) The graph of the sequence A2 is called the energy spectrum of n n n P and shows at a glance the relative sizes of the harmonics. Figure 5 shows the energy spectra for the flute and violin waveforms in Figure 4. Notice that, for the flute, A2 tends to diminish rapidly as n increases whereas, for the violin, the n higher harmonics are fairly strong. This accounts for the relative simplicity of the flute waveform in Figure 4 and the fact that the flute produces relatively pure sounds when compared with the more complex violin tones.

In addition to analyzing the sounds of conventional musical instruments, Fourier series enable us to synthesize sounds. The idea behind music synthesizers is that we can combine various pure tones (harmonics) to create a richer sound through emphasizing certain harmonics by assigning larger Fourier coefficients (and therefore higher corresponding energies).

Fourier Transform

...Fourier Transform and its applications Jatin Kumar Murray State University Abstract It has been widely recognized that waveforms are an integral part of the various universe phenomenon. Waveforms can be used to represent almost everything in the world. Therefore it is understandable that concepts related to waveforms or signals are extremely important as their applications exist in a broad variety of fields. The processes and ideas related to waveforms play a vital role in different areas of science and technology such as communications, optics, quantum mechanics, aeronautics, image processing to name a few. Even though the physical nature of signals might be completely different in various disciplines, all waveforms follow one fundamental principle; they can be represented by functions of one or more independent variables. This paper would focus on the concept of Fourier Transform, the technique through which signals can be deconstructed and represented as sum of various elementary signals. It briefly describes Linear Time Invariant systems and their response to superimposed signals. Fourier transform has many applications in physics and Engineering. This paper would also cover some of Fourier Transform applications in telecommunication and its impact on society.

The aim of this study was to utilize the waste shredded coconut after the coconut milk was extracted, and used as reinforcing agent bio-composite material with matrix of Polylacticacid(PLA) that can decompose naturally. During this time, grated coconut is simply discarded without further exploited. Alkalization chemical treatment with 5% NaOH 1 hour to Grated Coconut Milk Residue (GCMR) was done to improve compatibility with PLA matrix. Bio-composite material was made with a fraction of 0%, 15%, 30% w/w using compression molding technique. The chemical structure of GCMR before and after chemical treatment was observed with Fourier Transform Infrared. The mechanical property of bio-composite material was observed with tensile test.

Global Warming

...Vojta Rousar Mrs. Rothstein Comp/Lit 11 (2) 13 October 2009 Global Warming The Earth's climate is constantly changing over time. Many climatologists believe that the temperature of the Earth slowly fluctuates over time. In fact, several scientists estimate that between 15,000 and 30,000 years ago the Earth was covered by large sheets of ice. This period of time was known as the Ice Age. As the temperature of the Earth began to rise 7,000 years ago, the Ice Age came to an end. The first theory of global warming came in 1824 when French mathematician Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier discovered that the Earth's temperature was slowly increasing. Fourier argued that the earth's atmosphere traps solar radiation and reflects it back toward the earth. In the late 19th century Fourier's theory was labeled the "greenhouse effect" when Nobel Laureate Svante Arrhenius coined the term to explain how carbon dioxide traps heat in the Earth's atmosphere. Today, scientists disagree on the effects of global warming while some deny the phenomena all together. Despite these arguments many historians point out the direct relationship between man and the environment, often referencing the American Dust Bowl of the 1930s, where large scale soil erosion reduced parts of Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas to arid deserts. Currently, many governments and corporations are working to reduce fuel emissions and produce "Earth friendly" products such as hybrid cars. Yet, many scientists...

Wavelets and Edge Detection

...in textbooks on Fourier theory. It seems that there is little that can be done with wavelets that cannot be done with traditional Fourier analysis. Stephane Mallat was not the father of wavelet theory, but he is certainly an evangelist. His textbook on the subject, A Wavelet Tour of Signal Processing [1], contains proofs about the theory of wavelets, and a summation about what is known about them with applications to signal processing. One of his many papers, Characterization of Signals from Multiscale Edges [2], is frequently cited as a link between wavelets and edge detection. Mallat’s method not only finds edges, but classifies them into different types as well. Mallat goes on to describe a method of recovering complete images using only the edges, but we will not implement it in this project. In this project, we study this paper, and implement the method of Mallat to multiscale edge detection and analysis. We will first present a short background on wavelet theory. Then we will describe the different types of edges that exist in images, and how they can be characterized using a Lipschitz constant. Next, we describe the algorithm for the wavelet transform, from the Mallat paper. Finally, we show the results of applying the algorithm to a test image, and a real image. wave with the signal. When the results high valued, the coefficients of the Fourier transform will be high. Where the signal or the wave is close to zero, the coefficients will be low. Fourier analysis has a...
