Ocean motions at frequencies of the internal wave band are generally associated with freely propagating waves that are supported by stable vertical stratification in density. Previous analyses of yearlong current observations from the Bay…
In the present work motivated by generalized forms of the Hertzian dynamics associated with granular crystals, we consider the possibility of such models to give rise to both shock and rarefaction waves. Depending on the value $p$ of the…
Coherent control of wave transmission and reflection is crucial for applications in communication, imaging, and sensing. However, many practical scenarios involve partially coherent waves rather than fully coherent ones. We present a…
We study the backward scatterings of plane waves by reciprocal scatterers and reveal that $n$-fold ($n\geq3$) rotation symmetry is sufficient to secure invariant backscattering for arbitrarily-polarized incident plane waves. It is further…
We are interested in nonlinear hyperbolic systems in nonconservative form arising in fluid dynamics, and, for solutions containing shock waves, we investigate the convergence of finite difference schemes applied to such systems. According…
Reaction-diffusion models are often used to describe biological invasion, where populations of individuals that undergo random motility and proliferation lead to moving fronts. Many models of biological invasion are extensions of the…
We consider a $N$-particle interacting particle system with the vision geometrical constraints and reflected noises, proposed as a model for collective behavior of individuals. We rigorously derive a continuity-type of mean-field equation…
We numerically study a one-dimensional system of $N$ classical localized planar rotators coupled through interactions which decay with distance as $1/r^\alpha$ ($\alpha \ge 0$). The approach is a first principle one (\textit{i.e.}, based on…
High-frequency wave propagation in near-inertial wave shear has been considered fundamental in setting the spectral character of the oceanic internal wave continuum and for transporting energy to wave-breaking. We compare idealized ray…
An intervention may have an effect on units other than those to which it was administered. This phenomenon is called interference and it usually goes unmodeled. In this paper, we propose to combine Lauritzen-Wermuth-Frydenberg and…
The effect of the wind on the sustain of extreme water waves is investigated experimentally and numerically. A series of experiments conducted in the Large Air-Sea Interactions Facility (LASIF) showed that a wind blowing over a strongly…
We review the theory of wave interaction in finite and infinite depth. Both of these strands of water-wave research begin with the deterministic governing equations for water waves, from which simplified equations can be derived to model…
The propagation of nonrelativistic excitations in material media with topological defects can be modeled in terms of an external torsion field modifying the Schroedinger equation. Through a perturbative approach, we find a solution for the…
We study a system composed of a hydrogen atom interacting with an infinite conductor wall. The interaction energy decays like $L^{-3}$, where $L$ is the distance between the atom and the wall, due to the emergence of the van der Waals…
A new type of wave-mean flow interaction is identified and studied in which a small-amplitude, linear, dispersive modulated wave propagates through an evolving, nonlinear, large-scale fluid state such as an expansion (rarefaction) wave or a…
The article considers systems of interacting particles on networks with adaptively coupled dynamics. Such processes appear frequently in natural processes and applications. Relying on the notion of graph convergence, we prove that for large…
The paper recalls two of the regularity results for Burgers' equation, and discusses what happens in the case of genuinely nonlinear, strictly hyperbolic systems of conservation laws. The first regularity result which is considered is…
We investigate wavefront solutions in a nonlinear system of two coupled reaction-diffusion equations with degenerate diffusivity: \[n_t = n_{xx} - nb, \quad b_t = [D nbb_x]_x + nb,\] where $t\geq0,$ $x\in\mathbb{R}$, and $D$ is a positive…
Hitting rate and escape rate are two examples of recurrence laws for a dynamical system, and a general limit connects them. We show that for both Gibbs-Markov systems or any systems with the $\phi$-mixing measure, for a sequence of nested…
Studies of disordered spin chains have recently experienced a renewed interest, inspired by the question to which extent the exact numerical calculations comply with the existence of a many-body localization phase transition. For the…
