We perform numerical simulations of a two-dimensional frictional granular system under oscillatory shear confined by constant pressure. We found that the system undergoes dilatancy as the strain increases. We confirmed that compaction also…

In this paper, I aim to study free oscillations of a system of oscillators in more than one dimensions in the absence of damping. The basic approach lies in decoupling the motion in the individual perpendicular directions. Once the…

In this article, we consider the energy decay of a viscoelastic wave in an heterogeneous medium. To be more specific, the medium is composed of two different homogeneous medium with a memory term located in one of the medium. We prove…

Through a set of generators that preserves the hermiticity and trace of density matrices, we analyze the damping of harmonic oscillator in open quantum systems into four modes, distinguished by their specific effects on the covariance…

The problem of the vacuum energy decay is studied for both signs of the cosmological constant, through the analysis of the vacuum survival amplitude, defined in terms of the {\em conformal time}, $z$, by ${\mathcal A}(z,z^\prime)\equiv…

Propagating slow magneto-acoustic waves are often observed in polar plumes and active region fan loops. The observed periodicities of these waves range from a few minutes to few tens of minutes and their amplitudes were found to decay…

We consider multiscale Hamiltonian systems in which harmonic oscillators with several high frequencies are coupled to a slow system. It is shown that the oscillatory energy is nearly preserved over long times eps^{-N} for arbitrary N>1,…

We study the problem of stabilization for the acoustic system with a spatially distributed damping. Imposing various hypotheses on the structural properties of the damping term, we identify either exponential or polynomial decay of…

Energy decay is established for the damped wave equation on compact Riemannian manifolds where the damping coefficient is allowed to depend on time. Using a time dependent observability inequality, it is shown that the energy of solutions…

We give a proof of the exponential uniform decay of magneto-elasticity waves in a compact medium

We study the small vibrations of an axially travelling string with a dashpoint damping at one end. The string is modelled by a wave equation in a time-dependent interval with two endpoints moving at a constant speed $v$. For the undamped…

In this paper we consider how the statistical moments of the separation between two fluid particles grow with time when their separation lies in the dissipation range of turbulence. In this range the fluid velocity field varies smoothly,…

We consider a second order linear equation with a time-dependent coefficient c(t) in front of the "elastic" operator. For these equations it is well-known that a higher space-regularity of initial data compensates a lower time-regularity of…

The energy of solutions of the scalar damped wave equation decays uniformly exponentially fast when the geometric control condition is satisfied. A theorem of Lebeau [leb93] gives an expression of this exponential decay rate in terms of the…

In this paper we study a class of semilinear wave type equations with viscoelastic damping and delay feedback with time variable coefficient. By combining semigroup arguments, careful energy estimates and an iterative approach we are able…

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…

A finite number of harmonic oscillators coupled to infinitely many environment oscillators is fundamental to the problem of understanding quantum dissipation of a small system immersed in a large environment. Exact operator solution as a…

We address the time decay of the Loschmidt echo, measuring sensitivity of quantum dynamics to small Hamiltonian perturbations, in one-dimensional integrable systems. Using semiclassical analysis, we show that the Loschmidt echo may exhibit…

The interplay between dissipation and internal interactions in quantum many-body systems gives rise to a wealth of novel phenomena. Here we investigate spin-1/2 chains with uniform local couplings to a Markovian environment using the…

By means of two simple examples: phase and amplitude damping, the impact of decoherence on the dynamical Casimir effect is investigated. Even without dissipating energy (i.e., pure phase damping), the amount of created particles can be…
