Geometrical corrections have been presented by Patten (1988) and Sams and Goldberg (1990) for the borehole acoustics case. The remaining difficulties in the application of the spectral ratios technique come mainly from the suppression of the Gibbs phenomenon and optimal windowing of wave modes.

    Math 262 / CME 372 Winter 2021 Homework 1 Due February 2 1. Gibbs Phenomenon. Gibbs' phenomenon has to do with how poorly Fourier series converge in the vicinity of a jump or discontinuity of a signal f. This fact was pointed out by Gibbs in a letter to Nature (1899). (Actually Gibb's phenomenon was first described by the British mathematician Wilbraham (1848).) The function Gibbs considered was a sawtooth (1). Gibbs was replying to a letter by the physicist Michaelson to Nature (1898), in which the latter expressed himself doubtful as to the idea that a real discontinuity (in f) can a replace a sum of continuous curves (Sn(f)). Recall that the Fourier series of a periodic function f on the unit interval is Z 1 X i2πkt −i2πkt f(t) = ck e with ck = f(t)e dt: 0 k2Z To investigate Gibb's phenomenon, let us look at the function on the unit interval ( t 0 ≤ t < 1=2 f(t) = (1) t − 1 1=2 ≤ t < 1 (a) Calculate the Fourier coefficients (ck) of f. P i2πkt (b) Let Sn(f) be the partial sum Sn = jk|≤n cke . Calculate the approximation error kf − Sn(f)kL2 as accurately as possible.

To do so, define 2π a new independent variable t = T τ, so that f(t + 2π) = f(t) (2) So let us consider the set of all sufficiently nice functions f(t) of a real variable t that are periodic, with period 2π. Since the function is periodic we only need to consider its behavior on one interval of length 2π, e.g. on the interval (−π; π). The idea is to decompose any such function f(t) into an infinite sum, or series, of simpler functions. Following Joseph Fourier (1768-1830) consider the infinite sum of sine and cosine functions 1 a0 X f(t) = + [a cos(nt) + b sin(nt)] (3) 2 n n n=1 where the constant coefficients an and bn are called the Fourier coefficients of f.

  • ON the GIBBS PHENOMENON and ITS RESOLUTION 1. Introduction. the Gibbs Phenomenon, As We View It, Deals with the Issue of Recover
    SIAM REV. c 1997 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics Vol. 39, No. 4, pp. 644–668, December 1997 004 ON THE GIBBS PHENOMENON AND ITS RESOLUTION∗ DAVID GOTTLIEB† AND CHI-WANG SHU† Abstract. The nonuniform convergence of the Fourier series for discontinuous functions, and in particular the oscillatory behavior of the finite sum, was already analyzed by Wilbraham in 1848. This was later named the Gibbs phenomenon. This article is a review of the Gibbs phenomenon from a different perspective. The Gibbs phenomenon, as we view it, deals with the issue of recovering point values of a function from its expansion coefficients. Alternatively it can be viewed as the possibility of the recovery of local infor- mation from global information. The main theme here is not the structure of the Gibbs oscillations but the understanding and resolution of the phenomenon in a general setting. The purpose of this article is to review the Gibbs phenomenon and to show that the knowledge of the expansion coefficients is sufficient for obtaining the point values of a piecewise smooth function, with the same order of accuracy as in the smooth case. This is done by using the finite expansion series to construct a different, rapidly convergent, approximation. Key words.

  • Gibbs Phenomenon and Its Removal for a Class of Orthogonal Expansions
    Gibbs phenomenon and its removal for a class of orthogonal expansions Ben Adcock DAMTP, Centre for Mathematical Sciences University of Cambridge Wilberforce Rd, Cambridge CB3 0WA United Kingdom August 5, 2010 Abstract We detail the Gibbs phenomenon and its resolution for the family of orthogonal ex- pansions consisting of eigenfunctions of univariate polyharmonic operators equipped with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. As we establish, it is possible to completely describe this phenomenon, including determining exact values for the size of the overshoot near both the domain boundary and the interior discontinuities of the function. Next, we demonstrate how the Gibbs phenomenon can be removed from such expansions using a number of different techniques. As a by-product, we introduce a generalisation of the classical Lidstone polynomials. 1 Introduction Fourier series lie at the heart of countless methods in computational mathematics. Unfortunately, whenever a piecewise smooth function is represented by its Fourier series, the approximation suf- fers from the well-known Gibbs phenomenon [24, 36]. Several characteristics of this phenomenon include the slow convergence of the expansion away from the discontinuity locations, the lack of uniform convergence and the presence of O (1) oscillations near discontinuities [38]. In particu- lar, the maximal overshoot of the Fourier series of a function f near any discontinuity x0 is of + − size c[f(x0 ) − f(x0 )], where c ≈ 0:0895. It is a testament to the importance of the Gibbs phenomenon that the development of techniques for its amelioration, and indeed, complete removal, remains an active area of inquiry. The list of existing methods includes filtering [36], Gegenbauer reconstruction [20, 21], techniques based on extrapolation [14, 15, 16], Pad´emethods [13] and Fourier extension/continuation meth- ods [10, 22], to name but a few (for a more comprehensive survey see [11, 36] and references therein).

  • Gibbs Phenomenon in Engineering Systems
    Gibbs Phenomenon and its Applications in Science and Engineering Josué Njock Libii Engineering Department Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne Fort Wayne, Indiana, 46805-1499 [email protected] Abstract Gibbs phenomenon arises in many applications. In this article, the author first discusses a brief history of this phenomenon and several of its applications in science and engineering. Then, using the Fourier series of a square-wave function and computer software in a classroom exercise, he illustrates how Gibbs phenomenon can be used to illustrate to undergraduate students the concept of nonuniform convergence of successive partial sums over the interval from 0 to B. 1. Introduction Gibbs Phenomenon is intimately related to the study of Fourier series. When a periodic function f(x) with a jump discontinuity is represented using a Fourier series, for example, it is observed that calculating values of that function using a truncated series leads to results that oscillate near the discontinuity [12]. As one includes more and more terms into the series, the oscillations persist but they move closer and closer to the discontinuity itself. Indeed, it is found that the series representation yields an overshoot at the jump, a value that is consistently larger in magnitude than that of the actual function at the jump. No matter how many terms one adds to the series, that overshoot does not disappear. Thus, partial sums that approximate f(x) do not approach f(x) uniformly over an interval that contains a point where the function is discontinuous [23]. This behavior, which appears in many practical applications, is known as Gibbs Phenomenon; it is a common example that is used to illustrate how nonuniform convergence can arise [3].

    Session 3265 Applications of Gibbs Phenomenon in Engineering Education Josué Njock Libii Engineering Department Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne Fort Wayne, Indiana, 46805-1499 1. Introduction. Nonuniform convergence arises in many engineering applications. In this article, the author demonstrates how Gibbs phenomenon associated with the Fourier series of a square-wave function and computer software can be used to illustrate the concept of nonuniform convergence of successive partial sums over the interval from 0 to π. Trigonometric series of the form ¥ a0 f (x) = + å(an cosnx + bn sin nx) 2 n=1 are important in many problems in physics, engineering and biology. Here, a0 ,an ,bn , are coefficients to be determined. Such series and periodic functions that can be represented by them arise naturally in many practical applications. Yamashiro and Grudins[20] used Fourier series to model the flow of air in the lungs; many electric sources of energy generate waveforms that are periodic; sweep generators used to control electron beams in cathode-ray oscilloscopes produce triangular waves; nonlinearities that arise in circuits that are supposed to be linear create periodic functions; and when a nonfiltered electronic rectifier is driven by a sinusoidal source, it produces sine waves that are rectified [21]. Fourier series are used in a wide variety of other fields including electromagnetic wave theory [6], heat transfer [9], acoustics [23], mechanical and structural vibrations [11], and frequency analysis of signals [5]. In contrast to Taylor series, which can only be used to represent functions that have many derivatives, trigonometric series can be used to represent functions that are continuous as well as Page 8.228.1 Page "Proceedings of the 2003 American Society for Engineering Education Annual Conference & Exposition Copyright © 2003, American Society1 for Engineering Education" those that are discontinuous.
