We address the problem of a front propagation in chains with a bi-stable nondegenerate on-site potential and a nonlinear gradient coupling. For a generic nonlinear coupling, one encounters a special regime of transitions, characterized by…
We study the propagation of narrow solitons through various profiles of dispersive shock waves (DSW) for the generalized Korteweg-de Vries equation. We consider situations in which the soliton passes through the DSW region quickly enough…
Efforts at modelling the propagation of seismic waves in half-spaces with continuously varying properties have been mostly focused on shear-horizontal waves. Here a sagittaly polarized (Rayleigh type) wave travels along a symmetry axis (and…
Damping typically results in attenuation of vibrations and elastic wave propagation in mechanical systems. Contrary to this conventional understanding, we demonstrate experimentally and explain theoretically the revival of an elastic wave…
We describe a new model for the "stripes" of synchrotron radiation seen in the remnant of Tycho's supernova. In our picture, cosmic rays streaming ahead of the forward shock generate parallel (with respect to the local magnetic field…
The expansion of two circular rarefaction waves in vacuum or in a thin ambient plasma is examined with particle-in-cell simulations that resolve two spatial dimensions. In the simulation with no ambient plasma, the rarefaction waves…
Diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) of particles at collisionless shocks is the major accepted paradigm about the origin of cosmic rays (CRs). As a theory it was developed during the late 1970s in the so-called test-particle case. If one…
We apply a semi-classical approach of handling waves as quasiparticle gas in a slowly varying flow -- analogous to ray tracing -- to calculate the Alfven wave transmission parameters, the resulting cross-helicity of the waves and the…
We present a simplified model for linearized perturbations in a fluid with both differential rotation and differential vorticity. Without the latter the model reduces to the classical Shearing Sheet used in the description of spiral density…
We consider the long-term dynamics of nonlinear dispersive waves in a finite periodic domain. The purpose of the work is to show that the statistical properties of the wave field rely critically on the structure of the discrete resonant…
We study the shock structures in three-states one-dimensional driven-diffusive systems with nearest neighbors interactions using a matrix product formalism. We consider the cases in which the stationary probability distribution function of…
We introduce a novel unsteady shear protocol, which we name Rotary Shear (RS), where the flow and vorticity directions are continuously rotated around the velocity gradient direction by imposing two out-of-phase oscillatory shear (OS) in…
We study the nonlinear wave dynamics of one-dimensional chains of polycatenated rings. These interlocked structures support amplitude-dependent nonlinear wave propagation driven by tensile activation and internal structural flexibility,…
The addition of higher order asymptotic corrections to the Korteweg-de Vries equation results in the extended Korteweg-de Vries equation. These higher order terms destabilise the dispersive shock wave solution, also termed an undular bore…
We study the shock waves in relativistic chiral matter. We argue that the conventional Rankine-Hugoinot relations are modified due to the presence of chiral transport phenomena. We show that the entropy discontinuity in a weak shock wave is…
We present molecular dynamics study of a generic (coarse-grained) model for single-polymer diffusion confined in a corrugated cylinder. For a narrow tube, i.e., diameter of the cylinder $\delta < 2.3$, the axial diffusion coefficient…
We investigate the radiation from a charged particle rotating around a dielectric cylinder with a negative real part of dielectric permittivity. For the general case of frequency dispersion in dielectric permittivity, expressions are…
The theory of small-amplitude waves propagating across a blood vessel junction has been well established with linear analysis. In this study we consider the propagation of large-amplitude, nonlinear waves (i.e. shocks and rarefactions)…
The resonance modes and the related effects to the transmission of elastic waves in a two dimensional phononic crystal formed by periodic arrangements of a two blocks unit cell in one direction are studied. The unit cell consists of two…
The present paper has been framed to show the effect of damping on the propagation of torsional waves in an initially stressed, dissipative, incompressible cylinder of infinite length. A governing equation has been formulated on Biot's…
