Vibrating systems can respond to an infinite number of initial conditions and the overall dynamics of the system can be strongly affected by them. Therefore, it is of practical importance to have methods by which we can determine the…

The torque on a moving electric or magnetic dipole in slow motion is deduced using the Lorentz transformation of the fields to first order in v/c. It is shown that the obtained equations are independent of the model adopted for the dipole,…

It has been experimentally observed that weakly conducting suspended films of smectic liquid crystals undergo electroconvection when subjected to a large enough potential difference. The resulting counter-rotating vortices form a very…

An exact solution of the collisionless time-dependent Vlasov equation is found for the first time. By means of this solution the behavior of the Langmuir waves in the nonlinear stage is considered. The analysis is restricted by the…

This paper explores the exponential stability of two nonlinear wave equations coupled through their velocities. The analysis is divided into two main cases. First, we consider a system where one equation is damped, while the other…

The response of a large array of coupled nonlinear oscillators to parametric excitation is studied, motivated by the growing interest in the nonlinear dynamics of microelectromechanical and nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS and NEMS).…

Presented here is a study of well-posedness and asymptotic stability of a "degenerately damped" PDE modeling a vibrating elastic string. The coefficient of the damping may vanish at small amplitudes thus weakening the effect of the…

Motivated by numerically modeling surface waves for inviscid Euler equations, we analyze linear models for damped water waves and establish decay properties for the energy for sufficiently regular initial configurations. Our findings give…

We discuss several classes of linear second order initial-boundary value problems, where damping terms appear in the main wave equation as well as in the dynamic boundary condition. We investigate their well-posedness and describe some…

We analyze a simple example of wave equation with a time-dependent damping term, whose coefficient decays at infinity at the scale-invariant rate and includes an oscillatory component that is integrable but not absolutely integrable. We…

Magneto-acoustic waves in partially ionized plasmas are damped due to elastic collisions between charged and neutral particles. Here, we use a linearized two-fluid model to describe the influence of this collisional interaction on the…

The problem of propagating nonlinear acoustic waves is considered; the solution to which, both with and without damping, having been obtained to-date starting from the Navier-Stokes-Duhem equations together with the continuity and thermal…

Silicon-based micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) can be fabricated using bulk and surface micromachining technology. A micro mirror designed as an oscillatory MEMS constitutes a prominent example. Typically, in order to minimize energy…

We establish a relationship between the normalized damping coefficients and the time that takes a nonlinear pendulum to complete one oscillation starting from an initial position with vanishing velocity. We establish some conditions on the…

Experiments on the oscillatory motion of a suspended bar magnet throws light on the damping effects acting on the pendulum. The viscous drag offered by air was found the be the main contributor for slowing the pendulum down. The nature and…

The in-in formalism and its influence functional generalization are widely used to describe the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of unitary and open quantum systems, respectively. In this paper, we build on these techniques to develop an…

The frequency-dependent impedance is a fundamental property of electrical components. We show that it can be determined from the equilibrium dynamical fluctuations of the electrode charge in constant-potential molecular simulations,…

The concept of weak invariant is introduced. Then, the weak invariants associated with time-dependent quantum dissipative systems are discussed in the context of master equations of the Lindblad type. In particular, with the help of the…

In this paper, we investigate the energy decay of the solution to a viscoelastic wave equation with variable exponents logarithmic nonlinearity and weak damping in a bounded domain. We establish an explicit general decay result under mild…

We start from a variational model for nematic elastomers that involves two energies: mechanical and nematic. The first one consists of a nonlinear elastic energy which is influenced by the orientation of the molecules of the nematic…
