The emergence of localised vibrations in cyclic and symmetric rotating structures, such as bladed disks of aircraft engines, has challenged engineers in the past few decades. In the linear regime, localised states may arise due to a lack of…
Contrary to the decades-old understanding, SGn, the Sine-Gordon equation in (1+n) dimensions, has N-soliton solutions for any N >= 1, not only for n = 1, but also for n = 2 and 3. While SG1 solitons are confined to a line, SG2- and…
