We consider a version of the classical Hamiltonian Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) problem with a trilinear force-strain relation of soft-hard-soft type that is in general non-symmetric. In addition to the classical spatially localized solitary…
The lifetimes of localized nonlinear modes in both the $\beta$-Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou ($\beta$-FPUT) chain and a cubic $\beta$-FPUT lattice are studied as functions of perturbation amplitude, and by extension, the relative strength of the…
In 1955, Fermi, Pasta, Ulam, and Tsingou reported recurrence over time of energy between modes in a one-dimensional array of nonlinear oscillators. Subsequently, there have been myriad numerical experiments using homogenous FPUT arrays,…
