The construction of discrete scalar wave propagation equations in arbitrary inhomogeneous media was recently achieved by using elementary dynamical processes realizing a discrete counterpart of the Huygens principle. In this paper, we…
We determine conditions under which a generic gauge invariant nonautonomous and inhomogeneous nonlinear partial differential equation in the two-dimensional space-time continuum can be transform into standard autonomous forms. In addition…
A one-way wave equation is an evolution equation in one of the space directions that describes (approximately) a wave field. The exact wave field is approximated in a high frequency, microlocal sense. Here we derive the pseudodifferential…
We consider the propagation of acoustic time-harmonic waves in a homogeneous media containing periodic lattices of spherical or cylindrical inclusions. It is assumed that the wavelength has the order of the periods of the lattice while the…
Wave propagation in one-dimensional heterogeneous bistable media is studied using the Schl\"ogl model as a representative example. Starting from the analytically known traveling wave solution for the homogeneous medium, infinitely extended,…
The focus of our work is dispersive, second-order effective model describing the low-frequency wave motion in heterogeneous (e.g.~functionally-graded) media endowed with periodic microstructure. For this class of quasi-periodic medium…
Multi-scale wave propagation problems are computationally costly to solve by traditional techniques because the smallest scales must be represented over a domain determined by the largest scales of the problem. We have developed and…
We consider homogenization of the scalar wave equation in periodic media at finite wavenumbers and frequencies, with the focus on continua characterized by: (a) arbitrary Bravais lattice in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\!\geqslant\!2$, and (b)…
This paper provides a theoretical foundation for some common formulations of inverse problems in wave propagation, based on hyperbolic systems of linear integro-differential equations with bounded and measurable coefficients. The…
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…
We consider the wave propagation in media with step-like inhomogeneities. We choose two different protocols: (I) a step-like spatial dependence of the coupling constant that physically corresponds to the junction of two systems and (II) the…
In this paper, we investigate the problem of electromagnetic wave propagation in hyperbolic nonlinear media. To address this problem, we consider the scalar hyperbolic nonlinear Schr\"odinger system and its coupled version, namely…
The numerical approximation of high-frequency wave propagation in inhomogeneous media is a challenging problem. In particular, computing high-frequency solutions by direct simulations requires several points per wavelength for stability and…
We study the convergence of solutions of the discrete nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation on an infinite lattice in the continuum limit, using recent tools developed in the context of nonlinear discrete dispersive equations. Our approach relies…
Formulas are derived for solutions of many-body wave scattering problems by small particles in the case of acoustically soft, hard, and impedance particles embedded in an inhomogeneous medium. The limiting case is considered, when the size…
Dispersive waves in two-dimensional blocky materials with periodic microstructure made up of equal rigid units having polygonal centro-symmetric shape with mass and gyroscopic inertia, connected each other through homogeneous linear…
We study the behavior of nonlinear waves in a two-dimensional medium with density and stress relation that vary periodically in space. Efficient approximate Riemann solvers are developed for the corresponding variable-coefficient…
This study explores the use of fractional calculus as a possible tool to model wave propagation in complex, heterogeneous media. We illustrate the methodology by focusing on elastic wave propagation in a one-dimensional periodic rod. The…
The propagation of small-amplitude inhomogeneous plane waves in an isotropic homogeneous incompressible Mooney--Rivlin material is considered when the material is maintained in a state of finite static homogeneous deformation. Disturbances…
A new class of solitary waves arises in the solution of nonlinear wave equations with constant impedance and no dispersive terms. They depend on a balance between nonlinearity and a dispersion-like effect due to spatial variation in the…
