Antiresonance Antiresonance In the physics of coupled oscillators, antiresonance, by analogy with resonance, is a pronounced minimum in the amplitude of one oscillator at a particular frequency, accompanied by a large shift in its oscillation phase. Such frequencies are known as the system's antiresonant frequencies, and at these frequencies the oscillation amplitude can drop to almost zero. Antiresonances are caused by destructive interference, for example between an external driving force and interaction with another oscillator. Antiresonances can occur in all types of coupled oscillator systems, including mechanical, acoustic, electromagnetic and quantum systems. They have important applications in the characterization of complex
The Cassava Metaphor The Cassava Metaphor The Cassava Metaphor is a 2010 film. Dawn in Yaoundé. Coco, a twenty something Cameroonian is driving a pretty young woman in his taxi. On the way to the airport, he tries to chat her up, but her thoughts seem to be elsewhere. Wistful, she looks out at the streets of the town she is leaving. -Special prize of Best first film -Mention of the Jury to Mata Gabin -Canal plus Prize -Special Jury Prize -International Prize -Grand Prix -Professional Jury Prize -Special mention to Mata Gabin -Nominee for best film -Grand Prix -Special Jury Prize -Hope
