The fundamental frequency of a wave is the lowest frequency (longest wavelength) that can be used to define its period. The easiest way to understand it is via a musical analogy: The fundamental frequency is the root tone of the overtone or harmonic series.
It is three times the fundamental frequency. Scroll down to related links and look at "Calculations of Harmonics from Fundamental Frequency".
The fundamental = 1st harmonic is not an overtone!Fundamental frequency = 1st harmonic.2nd harmonic = 1st overtone.3rd harmonic = 2nd overtone.4th harmonic = 3rd overtone.5th harmonic = 4th overtone.6th harmonic = 5th overtone.Look at the link: "Calculations of Harmonics from Fundamental Frequency".
The definition of fundamental frequency is the lowest frequency of a periodic waveform. Sometimes fundamental frequency is abbreviated by FF, containing the lowest frequency starting from 0.
For a waveform containing harmonics, the harmonic frequencies are multiples of what is known as the 'fundamental' frequency. For example, for a waveform that contains 'third harmonics', the fundamental frequency is one-third the frequency of the harmonics. The fundamental frequency of vocal folds the speech mechanism as sound generator.
Fundamental frequency is called the 1st harmonic.The fundamental = 1st harmonic is not an overtone.

A square wave contains many higher harmonics of the fundamental. A much higher frequency, a harmonic of the fundamental, is what causes the fast slew rate of the square wave edges

The natural frequency of the spring refers to its frequency when hit or struck. Its lowest frequency is called fundamental frequency. For a spring, the 1st mode of natural frequency is fundamental frequency.
