... In one dimension, velocity is almost exactly the same as what we normally call speed. The speed of an object (relative to some fixed reference frame) is a measure of "how fast" the object is going--and coincides precisely with the idea of speed that we normally use in reference to a moving vehicle. ...

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.
