We touch upon the wide topic of discrete breather formation with a special emphasis on the the $\phi^4$ model. We start by introducing the model and discussing some of the application areas/motivational aspects of exploring time periodic,…
This study is motivated by the question of how singularity formation and other forms of extreme behavior in nonlinear dissipative partial differential equations are affected by stochastic excitations. To address this question we consider…
Nonlinear lattice models can support "discrete breather" excitations that stay localized in space for all time. By contrast, the localized Wannier states of linear lattice models are dynamically unstable. Nevertheless, symmetric and…
The long time diffusive behaviour of intrinsic localised modes (discrete breathers) in the discrete damped-driven sine-Gordon chain under Gaussian white noise (to simulate temperature) is studied. We present a theoretical model for an…
In the present work, we examine a prototypical model for the formation of bright breathers in nonlinear left-handed metamaterial lattices. Utilizing the paradigm of nonlinear transmission lines, we build a relevant lattice and develop a…
We find that sensory noise delivered together with a weak periodic signal not only enhances nonlinear response of neuronal networks, but also improves the synchronization of the response to the signal. We reveal this phenomenon in neuronal…
Scattering by (a) a single composite scatterer consisting of a concentric arrangement of an outer N-slit rigid cylinder and an inner cylinder which is either rigid or in the form of a thin elastic shell and (b) by a finite periodic array of…
The phenomenon of stochastic resonance (SR) has been mainly studied in one-dimensional systems with additive noise. We show that in higher dimensional systems and in the presence of multiplicative noise, a non-linear magnetic system with a…
As a proof of principle, we show how a classical nonlinear Hamiltonian system can be driven resonantly over reasonably long times by appropriately shaped pulses. To keep the parameter space reasonably small, we limit ourselves to a driving…
We give definitions for different types of moving spatially localized objects in discrete nonlinear lattices. We derive general analytical relations connecting frequency, velocity and localization length of moving discrete breathers and…
The paper deals with the passive control of resonant systems using nonlinear energy sink (NES). The objective is to highlight the benefits of adding nonlinear geometrical damping in addition to the cubic stiffness nonlinearity. The…
Nonlinearity and disorder are the recognized ingredients of the lattice vibrational dynamics, the factors that could be diminished, but never excluded. We generalize the concept of $q$-breathers -- periodic orbits in nonlinear lattices,…
Stochastic reaction-diffusion models can be analytically studied on complex networks using the linear noise approximation. This is illustrated through the use of a specific stochastic model, which displays traveling waves in its…
Physico-mechanical properties of polymers in solid state, in particular conditions of their structural transformations, are substantially defined by existence and mobility of elementary nonlinear excitations. The localized oscillatory…
In the aerospace industry the trend for light-weight structures and the resulting complex dynamic behaviours currently challenge vibration engineers. In many cases, these light-weight structures deviate from linear behaviour, and complex…
Mode-locked lasers play the role of the ideal testbeds for studying self-coherent structures, dissipative solitons, with stable spatiotemporal profiles supported by the balance between dispersion and nonlinearity. However, under some…
The dynamics of nanomechanical resonators driven by both low- and high-frequency signals is studied. Considering, as an example, resonators made of a doubly-clamped beam with magnetomotive driving, it is shown that three-frequency…
We model the dynamics of the leaky integrate-fire neuron under periodic stimulation as a Markov process with respect to the stimulus phase. This avoids the unrealistic assumption of a stimulus reset after each spike made in earlier work and…
Existence of breather (spatially localized, time periodic, oscillatory) solutions of the topological discrete sine-Gordon (TDSG) system, in the regime of weak coupling, is proved. The novelty of this result is that, unlike the systems…
Driven-dissipative light-matter systems can exhibit collective nonequilibrium phenomena due to loss and gain processes on the one hand and effective photon-photon interactions on the other hand. As generic example we study a bosonic lattice…
