We consider a heavy, uniform, elastic beam rested on periodically distributed supports as a simplified model of a bridge. The supports are subjected to a partial destruction propagating as a failure wave along the beam. Three related models…
Nonlinear evolution of shear waves into shocks in incompressible elastic materials is investigated using the framework of large deformation elastodynamics, for a family of loadings and commonly used hyperelastic material models. Closed form…
Undular bores, or dispersive shock waves, are non-stationary waves propagating as oscillatory transitions between two basic states, in which the oscillatory structure gradually expands and grows in amplitude with distance travelled. We…
Layered media can be used as acoustic filters, allowing only waves of certain frequencies to propagate. In soft magneto-active laminates, the shear wave band gaps (i.e., the frequency intervals for which shear waves cannot propagate) can be…
We study the interaction of highly nonlinear solitary waves in granular crystals, with an adjacent linear elastic medium. We investigate the effects of interface dynamics on the reflection of incident waves and on the formation of primary…
We study experimentally, in a large-scale basin, the propagation of unidirectional deep water gravity waves stochastically modulated in phase. We observe the emergence of nonlinear localized structures that evolve on a stochastic wave…
The propagation of intense acoustic waves in a one-dimensional phononic crystal is studied. The medium consists in a structured fluid, formed by a periodic array of fluid layers with alternating linear acoustic properties and quadratic…
A weakly nonlinear spectrum and a strongly nonlinear spectrum coexist in a statistically steady state of elastic wave turbulence. The analytical representation of the nonlinear frequency is obtained by evaluating the extended self-nonlinear…
We present an optical fiber experiment in which we examine the space-time evolution of a modulationally unstable plane wave initially perturbed by a small noise. Using a recirculating fiber loop as experimental platform, we report the…
The presence of spatial inhomogeneity in a nonlinear medium restricts the formation of Solitary Waves (SW) on a discrete set of positions whereas a nonlocal nonlinearity tends to smooth the medium response by averaging over neighboring…
The nonlinear evolution and propagation of a stable dust acoustic solitary wave (DASW) in a non-planar geometry is investigated here. The experiment is performed in a strongly coupled dusty plasma consisting of monodisperse micron particles…
We study the flow of water waves over bathymetry that varies periodically along one direction. We derive a linearized, homogenized model and show that the periodic bathymetry induces an effective dispersion, distinct from the dispersion…
A theoretical analysis of the scattering of plane-wave atomic excitations in disordered solids has been made in terms of the spectral densities. Hybridization between transverse and longitudinal waves of approximately the same frequency is…
In this article we discuss the modelling of elastic and electromagnetic wave propagation through one- and two-dimensional structured piezoelectric solids. Dispersion and the effect of piezoelectricity on the group velocity and positions of…
We study nonlinear wave phenomena in self-gravitating fluid systems, with a particular emphasis on applications to molecular clouds. This paper presents analytical results for one spatial dimension. We show that a large class of physical…
The processes that generate rogue waves on the sea surface remain a mystery. Despite their different natures, the nonlinear bending waves generated in a thin elastic plate share some similarities with waves on the surface of the sea. For…
One dimentional strongly nonlinear phononic crystals were assembled from chains of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) and stainless steel spheres with gauges installed inside the beads. Trains of strongly nonlinear solitary waves were excited…
A new dispersion equation is obtained for a non-equilibrium medium with an exponential relaxation model of a vibrationally excited gas. We have researched the dependencies of the pump source and the heat removal on the medium thermodynamic…
The secular instability and nonlinear evolution of the m=2 f-mode (bar-mode) driven by gravitational radiation reaction in a rapidly rotating, newly formed neutron star are reviewed. There are two types of rotating bars which generate quite…
Experimental results and their interpretations are presented on the nonlinear acoustic effects of multiple scattered elastic waves in unconsolidated granular media. Short wave packets with a central frequency higher than the so-called…
