The phenomenon of coincidence between an induced vibration in an object and a natural frequency of the object, generally leading to an enhanced amplitude of vibration. In the absence of damping the induced vibration may increase until catastrophic failure occurs.
Note: The natural frequency is called the resonant frequency.
Please note that this is the term as it stands in the original IALA Dictionary edition (1970-1989)
