The entrainment between weakly-coupled nonlinear oscillators, as well as between complex signals such as those representing physiological activity, is frequently assessed in terms of whether a stable relationship is detectable between the…
The steady streaming flow pattern caused by a no-slip sphere oscillating in an unbounded viscous incompressible fluid is calculated exactly to second order in the amplitude. The pattern depends on a dimensionless scale number, determined by…

We explore phenomenological consequences of coupling a non-conformal scale-invariant theory to the standard model. We point out that, under certain circumstances, non-conformal scale-invariant theories have oscillating correlation functions…
This paper examines filtering on a sphere, by first examining the roles of spherical harmonic magnitude and phase. We show that phase is more important than magnitude in determining the structure of a spherical function. We examine the…
Whisking is a rhythmic and adaptive behavior that rodents use to probe and interact with their environment, and the frequency of movement reflects both sensorimotor processing and internal brain states. A robust and traditional method of…
Motivated by the need for accurate frequency information, a novel algorithm for estimating the fundamental frequency and its rate of change in three-phase power systems is developed. This is achieved through two stages of Kalman filtering.…
We consider nonlinear, or "event-dependent", sampling, i.e. such that the sampling instances {tk} depend on the function being sampled. The use of such sampling in the construction of Lebesgue's integral sums is noted and discussed as…
Fundamental frequency (F0) has long been treated as the physical definition of "pitch" in phonetic analysis. But there have been many demonstrations that F0 is at best an approximation to pitch, both in production and in perception: pitch…
The coupled motion is investigated for a mechanical system consisting of water and a body freely floating in it. Water occupies either a half-space or a layer of constant depth into which an infinitely long surface-piercing cylinder is…
The problem of estimating an unknown force driving a linear oscillator is revisited. When using linear measurement, feedback is often cited as a mechanism to enhance bandwidth or sensitivity. We show that as long as the oscillator dynamics…
This paper analyzes how power injections affect frequency quality in power systems. We first derive a general expression linking active and reactive power injections at buses to the system's frequency. This formulation explicitly considers…
We derive the nonlinear fractional surface wave equation that governs compression waves at an interface that is coupled to a viscous bulk medium. The fractional character of the differential equation comes from the fact that the effective…

In the sciences and engineering, the concept of bandwidth is often subject to interpretation depending upon context and the requirements of a specific community. The focus of this work is to formulate this concept for a general class of…
We study the consequence of the frequency errors of individual oscillators on the scalability of quantum computing based on nanomechanical resonators. We show the fidelity change of the quantum operation due to the frequency shifts…
Nonlinear relations among frequencies and phases in modulational instability of circularly polarized Alfven waves are discussed, within the context of one dimensional, dissipation-less, unforced fluid system. We show that generation of…
We describe a gyroscope that measures rotation based on the effects of the rotation on the polarization of light. Rotation induces a differential phase shift in the propagation of left- and right-circularly polarized light and this phase…
Oscillator fluctuations are described as the phase or frequency noise spectrum, or in terms of a wavelet variance as a function of the measurement time. The spectrum is generally approximated by the `power law,' i.e., a Laurent polynomial…
The classical Fourier analysis of a time signal, in the discrete sense, provides the frequency content of signal under the assumption of periodicity. Although the original signal can be exactly recovered using an inverse transform, the time…
