Oscillaion (Click on) - As the number of degrees of freedom becomes indefinitely large, a system approaches continuity, for example, a string or the surface of a body of water. Such systems have an infinite number of normal modes and their oscillations occur in the form of waves that have the characteristic that they can propagate.
