When a small aperture setting is used, such as f/11, a large depth of field will be achieved. One would use this, say, if they wanted to take a landscape photograph, and have most of the photo in focus.
When a medium aperture setting is used, such as f/4, less of the photograph will be in focus, but not as much as if one were to use an aperture setting of f/1.8. A medium setting like f/4 could be used for a group photo.
When a large aperture setting is used, such as f/1.8, a very small slice of the photograph will be in focus (shallow DOF.) This large aperture setting could be used for plant Photography, macro photography, insect photography, etc.

If you can describe a particular aperture application perhaps more can be said. Apertures are usually associated with higher frequency waveforms.

What does the aperture dial do on a camera?
The aperture ring changes the lens aperture which controls how much light reaches the film or digital sensor. A large aperture f/1.4 to f/2.8 = lots of light, fast shutter speeds, narrow depth of field A small aperture f/9+ = much less light, slower shutter speeds, wide depth of field

The word aperture does not apply to the lens itself. In a camera, the aperture is the diameter of the shutter opening which allows light to reach the lens.
