In summary, a "Name of Circular Standing Wave in Geometry" is a specific type of standing wave that occurs in a circular or cylindrical shape. It is created when two waves of the same frequency and amplitude interfere with each other, resulting in a standing wave pattern with nodes and antinodes. The properties of this wave include a fixed wavelength, frequency, and amplitude, and it can be observed in various natural phenomena and laboratory experiments. It has practical applications in fields such as acoustics, optics, and electromagnetics, as well as being studied in mathematics and physics.

Okay, I know this is not that big of deal, but it has been bugging.

I would like to know if geometry has given a name to circular standing waves. You know Bohr / De Broglie model. And whether they extend to name with prefixs, like the triangle shaped on being tri-...S
