This article is concerned with the stability and long-time dynamics of structures arising from a structureless state. The paradigm is suggested by developmental biology, where morphogenesis is thought to result from a competition between…
Spontaneous pattern formation in a variety of spatially extended nonlinear system always occurs through a modulation instability: homogeneous state of the system becomes unstable with respect to growing modulation modes. Therefore, the…
Metals deformed at high strain rates can exhibit failure through formation of shear bands, a phenomenon often attributed to Hadamard instability and localization of the strain into an emerging coherent structure. We verify formation of…
An asymptotic interface equation for directional solidification near the absolute stabiliy limit is extended by a nonlocal term describing a shear flow parallel to the interface. In the long-wave limit considered, the flow acts…
We propose a kind of reaction-diffusion equations for cell differentiation, which exhibits the Turing instability. If the diffusivity of some variables is set to be infinity, we get coupled competitive reaction-diffusion equations with a…
This paper presents a new approach to distributed controller design that exploits a partial-structure representation of linear time invariant systems to characterize the structure of a system. This partial-structure representation, called…
We report the first experimental realization of pattern formation in a spatially extended nonlinear system when the system is alternated between two states, neither of which exhibits patterning. Dynamical equations modeling the system are…
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…
The purpose of this article is the investigation of the global control properties of a coupled nonlinear dispersive system posed in the periodic domain $\mathbb{T}$, a system with the structure of a nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation and a…
Diffusion-driven instability is a fundamental mechanism underlying pattern formation in spatially extended systems. In almost all existing works, diffusion across the links of the underlying network is modeled through scalar weights,…
A class of systems is considered, where immobile species associated to distinct patches, the nodes of a network, interact both locally and at a long-range, as specified by an (interaction) adjacency matrix. Non local interactions are…
Turing patterns in reaction-diffusion (RD) systems have classically been studied only in RD systems which do not explicitly depend on independent variables such as space. In practise, many systems for which Turing patterning is important…
We hereby develop the theory of Turing instability for reaction-diffusion systems defined on m-directed hypergraphs, the latter being generalization of hypergraphs where nodes forming hyperedges can be shared into two disjoint sets, the…
Novel constructions of empirical controllability and observability gramians for nonlinear systems for subsequent use in a balanced truncation style of model reduction are proposed. The new gramians are based on a generalisation of the…
We reduce complex stripped patterns to a basic topological network of edges and vertices to define defects and measure their influence on the pattern. We present statistics on the spatial and temporal distribution of defects within the…
Turing theory of pattern formation is among the most popular theoretical means to account for the variety of spatio-temporal structures observed in Nature and, for this reason, finds applications in many different fields. While Turing…
We investigate the phase separated inhomogeneous charge and spin states in magnetic oxides. In particular, we study one dimensional harmonic waves and stripe structures. We show that harmonic spin charge waves are unstable and inevitably…
We investigate the formation of stripe patterns that appear on the surface of a dry granular system as the container is deformed very slowly. In an experimental study using nearly mono-disperse glass beads, we found that many faults develop…
The global behaviour of nonlinear systems is extremely important in control and systems theory since the usual local theories will only give information about a system in some neighbourhood of an operating point. Away from that point, the…
In their way to/from turbulence, plane wall-bounded flows display an interesting transitional regime where laminar and turbulent oblique bands alternate, the origin of which is still mysterious. In line with Barkley's recent work about the…
