Oscillating reciprocation

Oscillating reciprocation

Oscillating reciprocation is an action where a body's displacement 'reciprocates' in a given axis or defined displacement vector and 'oscillates' along that axis usually perpendicular to the defined displacement. eg. the new Sabre Saw's on the market are reciprocating saw's which also oscillate the blade in an up and down fashion perpendicular to the cutting stroke.
