We report water wave experiments performed in a long tank where we consider the evolution of nonlinear deep-water surface gravity waves with the envelope in the form of a large-scale rectangular barrier. Our experiments reveal that, for a…
We consider a damped, parametrically driven discrete nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation, that models coupled pendula and micromechanical arrays, among others. To study the equation, one usually uses a small-amplitude wave ansatz, that reduces…
In the first half of the paper we consider interaction between the small amplitude travelling waves ("sound") and the shock waves in the transmission line containing both nonlinear capacitors and nonlinear inductors. We calculate the…
Using the very basic physics principles, we have studied the implications of quantum corrections to classical electrodynamics and the propagation of electromagnetic waves and pulses. The initial nonlinear wave equation for the…
We review the theory of wave interaction in finite and infinite depth. Both of these strands of water-wave research begin with the deterministic governing equations for water waves, from which simplified equations can be derived to model…
The theory of optical dispersive shocks generated in propagation of light beams through photorefractive media is developed. Full one-dimensional analytical theory based on the Whitham modulation approach is given for the simplest case of…
Although extreme or freak waves are repeatedly measured in the oceans, their origin is largely unknown. The interaction of different water waves is seen as one reason for their emergence. One way to consider nonlinear waves in deep water is…
The thermomagnetic instability of the critical state in superconductors is analysed with account of the dissipation and dispersion. The possibility is demonstrated of the existance of a nonlinear shok wave describing the final stage of the…
We consider discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations of n sites with periodic boundary conditions. These equations have n branches of standing waves that bifurcate from zero. Traveling waves appear as a symmetry-breaking from the standing…
The problem of interest in this article are waves on a layer of finite depth governed by the Euler equations in the presence of gravity, surface tension, and vertical electric fields. Perturbation theory is used to identify canonical…
In this paper, we study a non-integrable discrete lattice model which is a variant of an integrable discretization of the standard Hopf equation. Interestingly, a direct numerical simulation of the Riemann problem associated with such a…
The KdV equation models the propagation of long waves in dispersive media, while the NLS equation models the dynamics of narrow-bandwidth wave packets consisting of short dispersive waves. A system that couples the two equations to model…
For the first time, Schr\"odinger equations with cubic and more complex nonlinearities containing the unknown function with constant delay are analyzed. The physical considerations that can lead to the appearance of a delay in such…
We develop the theory of transformation of intensive initial nonlinear wave pulses to trains of solitons emerging at asymptotically large time of evolution. Our approach is based on the theory of dispersive shock waves in which the number…
We derive dispersion estimates for solutions of the one-dimensional discrete perturbed Schr\"odinger and wave equations. In particular, we improve upon previous works and weaken the conditions on the potentials. To this end we also provide…
Spectral method related to Lame equation with finite-gap potential is used to study the optical cascading equations. These equations are known not to be integrable by inverse scattering method. Due to "partial integrability" two-gap…
A nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with repulsive (defocusing) nonlinearity is considered. As an example, a system with a spatially varying coefficient of the nonlinear term is studied. The nonlinearity is chosen to be repelling except on a…
The effect of the modulation instability on the propagation of solitary waves along one-dimensional discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with cubic nonlinearity is revisited. A self-contained quasicontinuum approximation is developed…
The discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation on \(\Z^d\), \(d \geq 1\) is an example of a dispersive nonlinear wave system. Being a Hamiltonian system that conserves also the \(\ell^2(\Z^d)\)-norm, the well-posedness of the corresponding…
We study solitary wave solutions of the higher order nonlinear Schrodinger equation for the propagation of short light pulses in an optical fiber. Using a scaling transformation we reduce the equation to a two-parameter canonical form.…
