We study the effect of spatial frequency-forcing on standing-wave solutions of coupled complex Ginzburg-Landau equations. The model considered describes several situations of nonlinear counterpropagating waves and also of the dynamics of…
Breaking the chiral symmetry, rotation induces a secondary Hopf bifurcation in weakly nonlinear hexagon patterns which gives rise to oscillating hexagons. We study the stability of the oscillating hexagons using three coupled…
A 1:2 internally resonant mechanical system can undergo secondary Hopf (Neimark-Sacker) bifurcations, resulting in a quasi-periodic response when the system is subject to harmonic excitation. While these quasi-periodic orbits have been…
Spatially localized oscillations in periodically forced systems are intriguing phenomena. They may occur in spatially homogeneous media (oscillons), but quite often emerge in heterogeneous media, such as the auditory system, where localized…
Many of the interesting patterns seen in recent multi-frequency Faraday experiments can be understood on the basis of three-wave interactions (resonant triads). In this paper we consider two-frequency forcing and focus on a resonant triad…
In this paper, we analyse the dynamics of a pattern-forming system close to simultaneous Turing and Turing--Hopf instabilities, which have a 1:1 spatial resonance, that is, they have the same critical wave number. For this, we consider a…
When two-dimensional pattern-forming problems are posed on a periodic domain, classical techniques (Lyapunov-Schmidt, equivariant bifurcation theory) give considerable information about what periodic patterns are formed in the transition…
Periodic forcing of an oscillatory system produces frequency locking bands within which the system frequency is rationally related to the forcing frequency. We study extended oscillatory systems that respond to uniform periodic forcing at…
We examine examples of weakly nonlinear systems whose steady states undergo a bifurcation with increasing forcing, such that a forced subsystem abruptly ceases to absorb additional energy, instead diverting it into an initially quiescent,…
We show how pattern formation in Faraday waves may be manipulated by varying the harmonic content of the periodic forcing function. Our approach relies on the crucial influence of resonant triad interactions coupling pairs of critical…
We study time-periodic forcing of spatially-extended patterns near a Turing-Hopf bifurcation point. A symmetry-based normal form analysis yields several predictions, including that (i) weak forcing near the intrinsic Hopf frequency enhances…
