Intensive studies in the past decades have suggested that the heat conductivity $\kappa$ diverges with the system size $L$ as $\kappa\sim L^{\alpha}$ in one dimensional momentum conserving nonlinear lattices and the value of $\alpha$ is…
At low energies, the excitation of low frequency packets of normal modes in the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) and in the Toda model leads to exponentially localized energy profiles which resemble staircases and are identified by a slope $\sigma$…
In this letter, a multi-wave quasi-resonance framework is established to analyze energy diffusion in classical lattices, uncovering that it is fundamentally determined by the characteristics of eigenmodes. Namely, based on the presence and…
The features for the unsteady process of thermal equilibration ("the fast motions") in a one-dimensional harmonic crystal lying in a viscous environment (e.g., a gas) are under investigation. It is assumed that initially the displacements…
The stability of the one-mode nonlinear solutions of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam - $\beta$ system is numerically investigated. No external perturbation is considered for the one-mode exact analytical solutions, the only perturbation being that…
We conduct an extensive study of nonlinear localized modes (NLMs), which are temporally periodic and spatially localized structures, in a two-dimensional array of repelling magnets. In our experiments, we arrange a lattice in a hexagonal…
Thermalization in nonlinear systems is a central concept in statistical mechanics and has been extensively studied theoretically since the seminal work of Fermi, Pasta and Ulam (FPU). Using molecular dynamics and continuum modeling of a…
$q$-Breathers (QBs) represent a quintessential phenomenon of energy localization, manifesting as stable periodic orbits exponentially localized in normal mode space. Their existence can hinder the thermalization process in nonlinear…
We investigate the local and global dynamics of two 1-Dimensional (1D) Hamiltonian lattices whose inter-particle forces are derived from non-analytic potentials. In particular, we study the dynamics of a model governed by a "graphene-type"…
Nonequilibrium, quasi-stationary states of a one-dimensional "hard" $\phi^4$ deterministic lattice, initially thermalized to a particular temperature, are investigated when brought into contact with a stochastic thermal bath at lower…
The higher the energy of a particle is above equilibrium the faster it relaxes due to the growing phase-space of available electronic states it can interact with. In the relaxation process phase coherence is lost, thus limiting high energy…
We measure the free decay of a spatially periodic density profile in a normal fluid strongly interacting Fermi gas, which is confined in a box potential. This spatial profile is initially created in thermal equilibrium by a perturbing…
We investigate transient nonlinear localization, namely the self-excitation of energy bursts in an atomic lattice at finite temperature. As a basic model we consider the diatomic Lennard-Jones chain. Numerical simulations suggest that the…
Athermal systems across a large range of length scales, ranging from foams and granular bead packings to crumpled metallic sheets, exhibit slow stress relaxation when compressed. Experimentally they show a non-monotonic stress response when…
We study heat conduction in one, two and three dimensional anharmonic lattices connected to stochastic Langevin heat baths. The inter-atomic potential of the lattices is double-well type, i.e., $V_{\rm DW}(x)=k_2x^2/2+k_4 x^4/4$ with…
In the regime of strong nonlinearity, the validity of conventional perturbation based phonon transport theories is questionable. In particular, the renormalized phonons instead of phonons are responsible for heat transport in nonlinear…
In this work, we develop an analytical framework to explain the influence of dissipation and detuning parameters on the emergence and stability of autoresonance in a strongly nonlinear weakly damped chain subjected to harmonic forcing with…
The Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) problem consists of the nonequipartition of energy among normal modes of a weakly anharmonic atomic chain model. In the harmonic limit each normal mode corresponds to a periodic orbit in phase space and is…
We study heat conduction in one dimensional (1D) anharmonic lattices analytically and numerically by using an effective phonon theory. It is found that every effective phonon mode oscillates quasi-periodically. By weighting the power…
We investigate the equilibration process of the strongly coupled quartic Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) model by adding Langevin baths to the ends of the chain. The time evolution of the system is investigated by means of extensive…
