We study the long time statistics of a class of semi--linear wave equations modeling the motions of a particle suspended in continuous media while being subjected to random perturbations via an additive Gaussian noise. By comparison with…
We consider a linear mixed-effects model with a clustered structure, where the parameters are estimated using maximum likelihood (ML) based on possibly unbalanced data. Inference with this model is typically done based on asymptotic theory,…
We analyse the tumbling of small non-spherical, axisymmetric particles in random and turbulent flows. We compute the orientational dynamics in terms of a perturbation expansion in the Kubo number, and obtain the tumbling rate in terms of…
Motivated by recent experiments on generation of wave patterns by a polariton condensate incident on a localized obstacle, we study the characteristics of such flows under the condition that irreversible processes play a crucial role in the…
Depletion-induced aggregation of rods enhanced by clustering is observed to produce a novel model of attractive pairs of rods separated by a line of spheres in a quasi-2D, vertically-shaken, granular gas of rods and spheres. We show that…
It is frequently asserted that in a chaotic system two initially close points will separate at an exponential rate governed by the largest global Lyapunov exponent. Local Lyapunov exponents, however, are more directly relevant to…
Localization of wave functions in disordered systems can be characterized by the Lyapunov exponent, which is zero in the extended phase and nonzero in the localized phase. Previous studies have shown that this exponent is an analytic…
We study clustering of inertial particles in turbulent flows and discuss its applications to dust particles in protoplanetary disks. Using numerical simulations, we compute the radial distribution function (RDF), which measures the…
The Lyapunov spectrum describes the exponential growth, or decay, of infinitesimal phase-space perturbations. The perturbation associated with the maximum Lyapunov exponent is strongly localized in space, and only a small fraction of all…
We study the dynamics of two symmetrically coupled populations of identical leaky integrate-and-fire neurons characterized by an excitatory coupling. Upon varying the coupling strength, we find symmetry-breaking transitions that lead to the…
We consider dipole oscillations of a trapped dilute Bose-Einstein condensate in the presence of a scattering potential consisting either in a localized defect or in an extended disordered potential. In both cases the breaking of…
Three-dimensional molecular dynamics simulations of dissipative particles (~ 10^6) are carried out for studying the clustering kinetics of granular media during cooling. The inter-connected high particle density regions are identified,…
The synchronisation between rotating turbulent flows in periodic boxes is investigated numerically. The flows are coupled via a master-slave coupling, taking the Fourier modes with wavenumber below a given value $k_m$ as the master modes.…
The Lyapunov exponents for Anderson localization are studied in a one dimensional disordered system. A random Gaussian potential with the power law decay $\sim 1/|x|^q$ of the correlation function is considered. The exponential growth of…
We consider the continuum limit of some products of random matrices in $\text{SL}(d,{\mathbb R})$ that arise as discretisations of incompressible renewing flows -- that is, of flows corresponding to a divergence-free velocity field that…
Inertial particles (IPs) in vortical fluid flow cluster strongly, forming singular structures termed caustics for their resemblance to focal surfaces in optics. Here we show that such extreme aggregation onto low-dimensional submanifolds…
Using direct numerical simulations of isotropic turbulence in periodic cubes of several sizes, the largest being $8192^3$ yielding a microscale Reynolds number of $1300$, we study the properties of pressure Laplacian to understand…
We report the experimental evidence of the existence of a random attractor in a fully developed turbulent swirling flow. By defining a global observable which tracks the asymmetry in the flux of angular momentum imparted to the flow, we can…
In this paper, we consider the physical mechanism for the clustering of inertial particles in the inertial range of isotropic turbulence. We analyze the exact, but unclosed, equation governing the radial distribution function (RDF) and…
We calculate the spectrum of Lyapunov exponents for a point particle moving in a random array of fixed hard disk or hard sphere scatterers, i.e. the disordered Lorentz gas, in a generic nonequilibrium situation. In a large system which is…
