What are the scientific names of some wave patterns on ancient official uniforms?

Some wavy patterns on ancient official uniforms are called "sea cliff patterns".

Seawater cliff pattern is a traditional pattern in China, commonly known as "Jiangya Seawater" or "Seawater Jiangya", which is an auspicious pattern often decorated at the hem of ancient robes and official uniforms.

At the lower end of the pattern of "sea cliff pattern", there are usually many obliquely arranged curves, which are called water feet. Above the water foot, there are many billowing waves, stones standing in the water, dotted with auspicious clouds, which means that Fushan defends the sea, and at the same time means that "rivers and mountains are one" and "peace is always guaranteed".

Chapter 12 of official uniform

Twelve patterns, also known as twelve chapters and twelve articles, are the symbol of the clothing grade in the imperial era of China. The costumes of emperors and senior officials are embroidered with twelve patterns.

Chapter 12 designs include the sun, moon, stars, mountains, dragons, China insects, Zong Yi, seaweed, fire, pink rice, flounder and salamander.

According to the explanation of feudal scholars who annotated Zhou Li Chun Guan Fu in previous dynasties, the twelve chapters have their own meanings:

First, the sun, the moon and the stars, "take its brightness."

Second, the mountain, "take what others admire."

Third, the dragon, "take it for change."

Fourth, the Chinese worm, "take its arts and sciences" (that is, take its color appearance).

Seven, apes, take its "wisdom".

Eight, seaweed, clean.

Ten, powder rice, take its "support" (that is, take its nutrients).
