Inharmonicity refers to the deviation of a musical instrument's frequencies from the harmonic series. In a perfectly harmonic system, the frequencies of the overtones (or harmonics) are integer multiples of the fundamental frequency. For example, if the fundamental frequency is \(f\), the first few harmonics would be \(2f\), \(3f\), \(4f\), and so on.
