   harmonic motion, the motion of the point a, of the foot of
      the perpendicular pa, when p moves uniformly in the
      circumference of a circle, and pa is drawn perpendicularly
      upon a fixed diameter of the circle. this is simple
      harmonic motion. the combinations, in any way, of two or
      more simple harmonic motions, make other kinds of harmonic
      motion. the motion of the pendulum bob of a clock is
      approximately simple harmonic motion.

   harmonic proportion. see under proportion.

   harmonic series or harmonic progression. see under
      progression.

   spherical harmonic analysis, a mathematical method,
      sometimes referred to as that of laplace's coefficients,
      which has for its object the expression of an arbitrary,
      periodic function of two independent variables, in the
      proper form for a large class of physical problems,
      involving arbitrary data, over a spherical surface, and
      the deduction of solutions for every point of space. the
      functions employed in this method are called spherical
      harmonic functions. --thomson  tait.

   harmonic suture anat., an articulation by simple
      apposition of comparatively smooth surfaces or edges, as
      between the two superior maxillary bones in man; -- called
