ratio of strain energy to kinetic energy for an assumed mode shape, giving an upper-bound estimate of a system's natural frequency.

In mechanical engineering, Rayleigh quotient refers to ratio of strain energy to kinetic energy for an assumed mode shape, giving an upper-bound estimate of a system's natural frequency. This meaning comes from Rayleigh (1894) in The theory of sound.[1]
