Book Nonlinear Dynamics of Three dimensional Solitary Waves

Download or read book Nonlinear Dynamics of Three dimensional Solitary Waves written by Yeunwoo Cho and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In problems of dispersive wave propagation governed by two distinct restoring-force mechanisms, the phase speed of linear sinusoidal wavetrains may feature a minimum, cmin, at non-zero wavenumber, kmin. Examples include waves on the surface of a liquid in the presence of both gravity and surface tension, flexural waves on a floating ice sheet, in which case capillarity is replaced by the flexural rigidity of the ice, and internal gravity waves in layered flows in the presence of interfacial tension. The focus here is on deep-water gravity-capillary waves, where cmin = 23 cm/s with corresponding wavelength Amin = 27r/kmin = 1.71 cm. In this instance, ignoring viscous dissipation, cmin is known to be the bifurcation point of two-dimensional (plane) and three-dimensional (fully localized) solitary waves, often referred to as "lumps"; these are nonlinear disturbances that propagate at speeds below cmin without change of shape owing to a perfect balance between the opposing effects of wave dispersion and nonlinear steepening. Moreover, Cmin is a critical forcing speed, as the linear inviscid response to external forcing moving at Cmin grows unbounded in time, and nonlinear effects as well as viscous dissipation are expected to play important parts near this resonance. In the present thesis, various aspects of the dynamics of gravity-capillary lumps are investigated theoretically. Specifically, it is shown that steep gravity-capillary lumps of depression can propagate stably and they are prominent nonlinear features of the forced response near resonant conditions, in agreement with companion experiment for the generation of gravity-capillary lumps on deep water. These findings are relevant to the generation of ripples by wind and to the wave drag associated with the motion of small bodies on a free surface.

Book Localization And Solitary Waves In Solid Mechanics

Download or read book Localization And Solitary Waves In Solid Mechanics written by Alan R Champneys and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1999-11-30 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of recent reprints and new material on fundamentally nonlinear problems in structural systems which demonstrate localized responses to continuous inputs. It has two intended audiences. For mathematicians and physicists it should provide useful new insights into a classical yet rapidly developing area of application of the rich subject of dynamical systems theory. For workers in structural and solid mechanics it introduces a new methodology for dealing with structural localization and the related topic of the generation of solitary waves. Applications range from classical problems such as the buckling of cylindrical shells, twisted rods and pipelines, to the folding of geological strata, the failure of sandwich structures and the propagation of solitary waves in suspended beam systems.

Download or read book Nonlinear Waves written by Emmanuel Kengne and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-02-23 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights the methods to engineer dissipative and magnetic nonlinear waves propagating in nonlinear systems. In the first part of the book, the authors present methodologically mathematical models of nonlinear waves propagating in one- and two-dimensional nonlinear transmission networks without/with dissipative elements. Based on these models, the authors investigate the generation and the transmission of nonlinear modulated waves, in general, and solitary waves, in particular, in networks under consideration. In the second part of the book, the authors develop basic theoretical results for the dynamics matter-wave and magnetic-wave solitons of nonlinear systems and of Bose–Einstein condensates trapped in external potentials, combined with the time-modulated nonlinearity. The models treated here are based on one-, two-, and three-component non-autonomous Gross–Pitaevskii equations. Based on the Heisenberg model of spin–spin interactions, the authors also investigate the dynamics of magnetization in ferromagnet with or without spin-transfer torque. This research book is suitable for physicists, mathematicians, engineers, and graduate students in physics, mathematics, and network and information engineering.

Book 3D Solitary Waves in Dispersive Wave Systems

Download or read book 3D Solitary Waves in Dispersive Wave Systems written by Boguk Kim (Ph. D.) and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Cont.) The asymptotic analysis of these lumps in the vicinity of their bifurcation point at the minimum gravity-capillary phase speed, is in agreement with recent fully numerical computations by Parau, Cooker & Vanden-Broeck (2005) as well as a formal existence proof by Groves & Sun (2005). A linear stability analysis of the gravity-capillary solitary waves that also bifurcate at the minimum gravity-capillary phase speed, reveals that they are always unstable to transverse perturbations, suggesting a mechanism for the generation of lumps. This generation mechanism is explored in the context of the two-dimensional Benjamin (2-DB) equation, a generalization to two horizontal spatial dimensions of the model equation derived by Benjamin (1992) for uni-directional, small-amplitude, long interfacial waves in a two-fluid system with strong interfacial tension. The 2-DB equation admits solitary waves and lumps of the wavepacket type analogous to those bifurcating at the minimum gravity-capillary phase speed in the water-wave problem. Based on unsteady numerical simulations, it is demonstrated that the transverse instability of solitary waves of the 2-DB equation results in the formation of lumps, which propagate stably and are thus expected to be the asymptotic states of the initial-value problem for fully localized initial conditions.

This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early in 1990 a scientific committee was formed for the purpose of organizing a high-level scientific meeting on Future Directions of Nonlinear Dynamics in Physical and Biological Systems, in honor of Alwyn Scott's 60th birthday (December 25, 1991). As preparations for the meeting proceeded, they were met with an unusually broad-scale and high level of enthusiasm on the part of the international nonlinear science community, resulting in a participation by 168 scientists from 23 different countries in the conference, which was held July 23 to August 11992 at the Laboratory of Applied Mathematical Physics and the Center for Modelling, Nonlinear Dynamics and Irreversible Thermodynamics (MIDIT) of the Technical University of Denmark. During the meeting about 50 lectures and 100 posters were presented in 9 working days. The contributions to this present volume have been grouped into the following chapters: 1. Integrability, Solitons, and Coherent Structures 2. Nonlinear Evolution Equations and Diffusive Systems 3. Chaotic and Stochastic Dynamics 4. Classical and Quantum Lattices and Fields 5. Superconductivity and Superconducting Devices 6. Nonlinear Optics 7. Davydov Solitons and Biomolecular Dynamics 8. Biological Systems and Neurophysics. AI Scott has made early and fundamental contributions to many of these different areas of nonlinear science. They form an important subset of the total number of the papers and posters presented at the meeting. Other papers from the meeting are being published in a special issue of Physica D Nonlinear Phenomena.
