The evolution of the amplitude of two nonlinearly interacting waves is considered, via a set of coupled nonlinear Schroedinger-type equations. The dynamical profile is determined by the wave dispersion laws (i.e. the group velocities and…
Viscous linear surface waves are studied at arbitrary wavelength, layer thickness, viscosity and surface tension. We find that in shallow enough fluids no surface waves can propagate. This layer thickness is determined for some fluids,…
We investigate spatial localization in a quadratic nonlinear medium in the presence of randomness. By means of numerical simulations and theoretical analyses we show that, in the down conversion regime, the transverse random modulation of…
The problem of oscillating flows inside pipes under periodic forcing of viscoelastic fluids is addressed here. Starting from the linear Oldroyd-B model, a generalized Darcy's law is obtained in frequency domain and an explicit expression…
In this work, we derive reduced interface models for hydroelastic water waves coupled to a nonlinear viscoelastic plate. In a weakly nonlinear small-steepness regime we obtain bidirectional nonlocal evolution equations capturing the…
We investigate the origin of the deviations from the classical Darcy law by numerical simulation of the Navier-Stokes equations in two-dimensional disordered porous media. We apply the Forchheimer equation as a phenomenological model to…
The non-modal linear stability of miscible viscous fingering in a two dimensional homogeneous porous medium has been investigated. The linearized perturbed equations for Darcy's law coupled with a convection-diffusion equation is…
We consider the coupled electromagnetic waves propagating in a waveguide array, which consists of alternating waveguides of positive and negative refraction indexes. Due to zigzag configuration there are interactions between both nearest…
Nonlinear wave patterns generated by the flow of polariton condensate past an obstacle are studied for quasi-one-dimensional microcavity geometry. It is shown that pumping and nonlinear damping play a crucial role in this process leading to…
A novel statistical approach based on the Wigner transform is proposed for the description of partially incoherent optical wave dynamics in nonlinear media. An evolution equation for the Wigner transform is derived from a nonlinear…
Recent experiments have demonstrated that it is possible to alter the dispersion of a medium without significantly altering its absorption or refractive index and that this may be done while a wave propagates through the medium. This…
In this work, we investigate a model describing flow through porous media with permeability heterogeneity, combining an advection-reaction-diffusion equation for solute concentration with an unsteady Darcy-Brinkman equation with Korteweg…
We study the defocusing energy-critical nonlinear wave equation in four dimensions. Our main result proves the stability of the scattering mechanism under random pertubations of the initial data. The random pertubation is defined through a…
The study of shear layer instability in compressible flows is key to understanding phenomena from aerodynamics to astrophysical jets. Blumen's seminal paper [``Shear layer instability of an inviscid compressible fluid," J. Fluid Mech. {\bf…
In this work we prove that the shallow water flow, subject to strong wind forcing and linearized around an adequate stationary profile, develops for large times closed trajectories due to the propagation of Rossby waves, while Poincar\'e…
The propagation of nonlinear waves in a lattice of repelling particles is studied theoretically and experimentally. A simple experimental setup is proposed, consisting in an array of coupled magnetic dipoles. By driving harmonically the…
Weak Wave Turbulence is a powerful theory to predict statistical observables of diverse relevant physical phenomena, such as ocean waves, magnetohydrodynamics and nonlinear optics. The theory is based upon an asymptotic closure permitted in…
Wave front propagation with non-trivial bottom topography is studied within the formalism of hyperbolic long wave models. Evolution of non-smooth initial data is examined, and in particular the splitting of singular points and their short…
It is shown: 1) that in two-dimensional, incompressible, viscous flows the vorticity-area distribution evolves according to an advection-diffusion equation with a negative, time dependent diffusion coefficient and 2) how to use the…
In this paper we address the stability of resonantly forced density waves in dense planetary rings. Already by Goldreich & Tremaine (1978) it has been argued that density waves might be unstable, depending on the relationship between the…
