... A wave is a correlated collection of oscillations. For example, in a transverse wave traveling along a string, each point in the string oscillates back and forth in the transverse direction (not along the direction of the string). In sound waves, each air molecule oscillates back and forth in the lo ...

Hunting oscillation

Hunting oscillation is a self-oscillation, usually unwanted, about an equilibrium. The expression came into use in the 19th century and describes how a system ""hunts"" for equilibrium. The expression is used to describe phenomena in such diverse fields as electronics, aviation, biology, and railway engineering.
