Monodisperse granular flows often develop regions with hexagonal close packing of particles. We investigate this effect in a system of inelastic hard spheres driven from below by a "thermal" plate. Molecular dynamics simulations show, in a…

Clustered solutions in oscillator networks provide an important insight into how a system might diversify from a synchronous solution into spatiotemporal complex solutions. They can therefore form a link between fully synchronized and…
In the standard paradigm for cosmological structure formation, clustering develops from initially random-phase (Gaussian) density fluctuations in the early Universe by a process of gravitational instability. The later, non-linear stages of…
