Longitudinal wave propagation is considered in a pair of waveguides connected by bilinear spring systems. The nature of the nonlinearity causes the compressive and tensile force-displacement relations of the bilinear spring to behave in a…
Acoustic non-reciprocity has been shown to enable a plethora of effects analogous to phenomena seen in quantum physics and electromagnetics, such as immunity from back-scattering and unidirectional band gaps, which could lead to the design…
Unilateral transmission refers to the scenario in which the waves transmitted through a system remain in pure tension or pure compression. This transmission phenomenon may occur in systems that exhibit different effective elasticity in…
Non-reciprocal transmission of motion is potentially highly beneficial to a wide range of applications, ranging from wave guiding, to shock and vibration damping and energy harvesting. To date, large levels of non-reciprocity have been…
Almost-dispersionless pulse transfer between the extremal masses of a uniform harmonic spring-mass chain of arbitrary length can be induced by suitably modifying two masses and their spring's elastic constant at both extrema of the chain.…
Reciprocity is a fundamental principle governing various physical systems, which ensures that the transfer function between any two points in space is identical, regardless of geometrical or material asymmetries. Breaking this transmission…
We consider asymmetric (nonreciprocal) wave transmission through a layered nonlinear, non mirror-symmetric system described by the one-dimensional Discrete Nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with spatially varying coefficients embedded in an…
Nonreciprocity can be passively achieved by harnessing material nonlinearities. In particular, networks of nonlinear bistable elements with asymmetric energy landscapes have recently been shown to support unidirectional transition waves.…
The nonlinear properties of quasiperiodic photonic crystals based on the Thue-Morse sequence are investigated. The intrinsic spatial asymmetry of these one-dimensional structures for odd generation numbers results in bistability thresholds…
Waveguides subject to spatiotemporal modulations are known to exhibit nonreciprocal vibration transmission, whereby interchanging the locations of the source and receiver change the end-to-end transmission characteristics. The scenario of…
Materials and devices subject to spatiotemporal modulation of their effective properties have a demonstrated ability to support nonreciprocal transmission of waves. Most notably, spatiotemporally modulated systems can restrict wave…
Nonreciprocal wave propagation allows for directional energy transport. In this work, we systematically investigate wave dynamics in an elastic lattice that combines nonreciprocal stiffness with viscous damping. After establishing how…
A mechanism for asymmetric (nonreciprocal) wave transmission is presented. As a reference system, we consider a layered nonlinear, non mirror-symmetric model described by the one-dimensional Discrete Nonlinear Schreodinger equation with…
For sound waves impinging on a one-dimensional medium, we show that nonlinearity can lead to nonreciprocal transmission, without dissipation or broken time reversal invariance. Placing quasi-monochromatic filters at the ends of the…
We present a mechanism to generate unidirectional pulse-shaped propagating waves, tamed to exponential growth and dispersion, in active systems with nonreciprocal and nonlinear couplings. In particular, when all bulk modes are exponentially…
Optical nonreciprocity is the phenomenon where light behaves differently when traveling in the forward direction compared to the backward direction. This nonreciprocal behavior is typically achieved in systems that exhibit electromagnetic…
Unidirectional nonreciprocal transport is at the heart of many fundamental problems and applications in both science and technology. Here we study the novel design of wave diode devices by engineering asymmetric shapes of nonlinear…
Nonlinear waves are a robust phenomenon observed in complex systems ranging from mechanics to ecology. Fronts are fundamental due to their robustness against perturbations and capacity to propagate one state over another. Controlling and…
Nonreciprocity of spin wave propagation is a well-known consequence of antisymmetric exchange contributions possible in magnetic spin systems that lack inversion symmetry. In this case, it is possible for the energy of a state to depend on…
A robust energy transfer mechanism is found in nonlinear wave systems, which favours transfers towards modes interacting via non-resonant triads, applicable in meteorology, nonlinear optics and plasma wave turbulence. Transfer efficiency is…
