noun
Technical term in physics and engineering for a nonlinear oscillation where energy is slowly stored and rapidly released, producing a sawtooth-like waveform.
弛張振動は、非線形振動の一種で、のこぎり波状の波形を示す。
Relaxation oscillation is a type of nonlinear oscillation that exhibits a sawtooth-like waveform.
Composed of 弛張 (relaxation/tension) and 振動 (oscillation). The term is a direct translation of the English 'relaxation oscillation'.
