The solution to the wave equation

\displaystyle\frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial t^2}= c ^2\displaystyle\frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial x^2}



is of the form

z = z_0 e^{ i( k s - \omega t )}



but it must satisfy the conditions of free or fixed edge. In the edge case

- free wave can move but has no support so the stress and thus the deformation must be zero.
- fixed the wave cannot move but it can generate tension and with it deformation

Graphically, we have

The equation



It means that there are two solutions.

\omega = \pm c k



so the solution is of the form

x_0 e^{ikx}(e^{i\omega t)}+e^{-i\omega t})



or with Euler's relation the real part is

2x_0 \cos(kx)\cos(\omega t)



In other words, a function of the position oscillates in the same place without moving:

This is called a standing wave.
