Name pronunciation question

If Ernst Chladni's family was Hungarian, wouldn't his last name be pronounced in the Hungarian manner? The Kladne pronunciation is German, isn't it? I think it is uncommon to see German names end in an "ni", which indicates his name is Hungarian - but was his name often spelled in the Hungarian alphabet? If so, what was the spelling (as this could help in figuring out how to pronounce his name)? 22:55, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Probably, original form of last name was Chladný(which means "cold(man)"). That's Slovakian surname. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.17.120.2 (talk) 13:59, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

Added information about Chladni's work in meteoritics

The title says it all, really. I bulked up the "Meteorites" section (now called "Contributions to Meteoritics") with context surrounding his theories and influence as well as the work done by others in the field that helps verify his theories. I hope the information I provided is good and helpful! Haveagooddavis (talk) 18:52, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

Chladni figures need own article

Chladni figures deserve their own article . Although Chladni researched and documented them the subject is much bigger than a section in his biography. There is their original discovery by Hooke, there mathematical analysis and various other later researchers. I propose leaving a summary here and branching out to an article in its own right. Any thoughts? Lumos3 (talk) 11:19, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

Absolutely agree. Chladni plates belong near/with drumskin oscillations and fourier series and bessel functions and sturm louville etc. The awkward part is the weird boundary condition around the edge which, if i recall well, is the vanishing of the 4th space derivative. Even the 1 d version of a rectangular metal strip ignoring one of the cartesian coords is important in many ways. Clearly important for engineers, physicists and mathematicians. 85.87.103.68 (talk) 10:23, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
