Scaling laws and intermittency in the wall region of a turbulent flow are addressed by analyzing moderate Reynolds number data obtained by single component hot wire anemometry in the boundary layer of a flat plate. The paper aims in…
Theoretical models that describe oscillations in biological systems are often either a limit cycle oscillator, where the deterministic nonlinear dynamics gives sustained periodic oscillations, or a noise-induced oscillator, where a fixed…
In this paper, we provide a geometric analysis of a new hysteresis model that is based upon singular perturbations. Here hysteresis refers to a type of regularization of piecewise smooth differential equations where the past of a…
This paper presents new results on the limit cycles of a Li\'enard system with symmetry allowing for discontinuity. Our results generalize and improve the results in [33,34]. The results in [34] are only valid for the smooth system. We…
The main purpose of this paper is to study limit cycles in non-linear regularizations of planar piecewise smooth systems with fold points (or more degenerate tangency points) and crossing regions. We deal with a slow fast Hopf point after…
We present a study of dynamical scaling and front motion in a one dimensional system that describes Rayleigh-Benard convection in a rotating cell. We use a model of three competing modes proposed by Busse and Heikes to which spatial…
Fast-slow dynamical systems have subsystems that evolve on vastly different timescales, and bifurcations in such systems can arise due to changes in any or all subsystems. We classify bifurcations of the critical set (the equilibria of the…
We systematically study effects of external perturbations on models describing earthquake fault dynamics. The latter are based on the framework of the Burridge-Knopoff spring-block system, including the cases of a simple mono-block fault,…
Recently, research on the complex periodic behavior of multi-scale systems has become increasingly popular. Krupa et al. \cite{krupa2} provided a way to obtain relaxation oscillations in slow-fast systems through singular Hopf bifurcations…
We use inelastic hard sphere molecular dynamics simulations and laboratory experiments to study patterns in vertically oscillated granular layers. The simulations and experiments reveal that {\em phase bubbles} spontaneously nucleate in the…

The dynamics of the kicked-rotor, that is a paradigm for a mixed system, where the motion in some parts of phase space is chaotic and in other parts is regular is studied statistically. The evolution (Frobenius-Perron) operator of phase…
Dynamical properties of tropically discretized and max-plus negative feedback models are investigated. Reviewing the previous study [S. Gibo and H. Ito, J. Theor. Biol. 378, 89 (2015)], the conditions under which the Neimark-Sacker…
The late-time growth of single-mode immiscible Rayleigh-Taylor instability is investigated over a comprehensive range of the Reynolds numbers ($1\leq Re \leq 10000$) and Atwood numbers $(0.05 \leq A \leq 0.7)$ using an improved lattice…
Recent computational investigations in polymeric and non-polymeric binary mixtures have reported anomalous relaxation features when both components exhibit very different mobilities. Anomalous relaxation is characterized by sublinear power…
Here we study the relaxation of a chain consisting of 3 masses joined by non-linear springs and periodic conditions when the stiffness is weakened. This system, when expressed in their normal coordinates, yields a softened Henon-Heiles…
The collapse of an isolated, uniform and spherical cloud of self-gravitating particles represents a paradigmatic example of a relaxation process leading to the formation of a quasi-stationary state in virial equilibrium. We consider several…

In this work, our primary goal is to study the Poincare map and the existence of limit cycles for Welander's model that describes ocean convection. Welander developed two versions of his model, one with a smooth transition between…
We present Monte Carlo simulations in a modification of the north-or-east-or-front model recently investigated by Berthier and Garrahan [J. Phys. Chem. B 109, 3578 (2005)]. In this coarse-grained model for relaxation in supercooled liquids,…
