As a result, when the two light fields exit the glass, they have a different phase relationship than when they entered.
The direction the field rotates in depends on which of the two phase relationships exists.
Complex sounds such as these have an undetectable phase relationship.
The feedback path provides energy of the proper delay and phase relationship to sustain oscillations.
It is the behavior of a pattern of "fringes" when the phase relationship between the component sources change.
The two oscillators may fall into synchrony, but other phase relationships are also possible.
As they assume a more stable phase relationship, the amount of energy gradually reduces to zero.
That tends to scramble certain phase relationships within the beam.
However, several manufacturers now provide accessories to electronically control the phase relationship of the shutter and film advance mechanisms.
The key variables for gait are the duty factor and the forelimb-hindlimb phase relationship.
