New solitons and periodic wave solutions for the dispersive long wave equations

We make use of Jacobi elliptic functions to construct periodic wave solutions for the dispersive long wave equations. In the limit cases the multiple soliton solutions are also obtained. The properties of some periodic and soliton solutions for the dispersive long wave equations are shown by some figures. As a result, we can successfully obtain the solitary wave solutions that can be found by the previous work.     

Autapse-induced target wave,spiral wave in regular network of neurons

Autapse is a type of synapse that connects axon and dendrites of the same neuron, and the effect is often detected by close-loop feedback in axonal action potentials to the owned dendritic tree. An artificial autapse was introduced into the Hindmarsh-Rose neuron model, and a regular network was designed to detect the regular pattern formation induced by autapse. It was found that target wave emerged in the network even when only a single autapse was considered. By increasing the(autapse density) number of neurons with autapse, for example, a regular area(2×2, 3×3, 4×4, 5×5 neurons) under autapse induced target wave by selecting the feedback gain and time-delay in autapse. Spiral waves were also observed under optimized feedback gain and time delay in autapses because of coherence-like resonance in the network induced by some electric autapses connected to some neurons. This confirmed that the electric autapse has a critical role in exciting and regulating the collective behaviors of neurons by generating stable regular waves(target waves, spiral waves) in the network. The wave length of the induced travelling wave(target wave, spiral wave), because of local effect of autapse, was also calculated to understand the waveprofile in the network of neurons.     

Symmetry groups and spiral wave solution of a wave propagation equation

We study a third-order nonlinear evolution equation, which can be transformed to the modified KdV equation, using the Lie symmetry method. The Lie point symmetries and the one-dimensional optimal system of the symmetry algebras are determined. Those symmetries are some types of nonlocal symmetries or hidden symmetries of the modified KdV equation. The group-invariant solutions, particularly the travelling wave and spiral wave solutions, are discussed in detail, and a type of spiral wave solution which is smooth in the origin is obtained.     

Acoustic wave propagation in bent thin-walled wave guides

Theoretical analysis of sound wave propagation in structures indicates considerable amplitude reduction during transmission through a bent joint, while some build-up can be observed in front of the bend. Every type of transmitted wave (longitudinal and flexural in plane frames) is found to combine with other forms of sound propagation as a result of the deflection of the axis of the wave guide. The screening effect of the bend, in solids with arbitrary viscoelastic properties, is evident even under highly simplified assumptions, such as compatibility and equilibrium. By solving several practical problems, the attenuation due to folding of the structure is compared to the damping effect of the material, with the conclusion that the former contribution is the larger of the two. A pair of examples of insulation analysis of structures is worked out, and the results yield the particle velocity—the first step in determining the radiation pattern. The influence of dense columns in walls, of beams in plates, and of coupling effects in bent structures are examined.     

Hierarchical wave functions revisited

We study the hierarchical wave functions on a sphere and on a torus. We simplify some wave functions on a sphere or a torus using the analytic properties of wave functions. The open question, the construction of the wave function for quasielectron excitations on a torus, is also solved in this paper.     

Exact traveling wave solutions to nonlinear diffusion and wave equations

By the introduction of some ansatz equations, we have obtained several new classes of traveling (solitary) wave solutions to the nonlinear diffusion equation $$f_1 (u)u_t + f_2 (u)u_x + f_3 (u)u_{xx} + f_4 (u)u_x^2 = f_5 (u)$$ and the nonlinear wave equation $$f_1 (u)u_u + f_2 (u)u_t + f_3 (u)u_{xx} + f_4 (u)u_x + f_5 (u)u_x^2 + \cdots = f_6 (u)$$ Some applications of these solutions are discussed.     

Quantum wave processing

In recent years, the concept of quantum computing has arisen as a methodology by which very rapid computations can be achieved. In general, the ‘speed’ of these computations is compared to that of (classical) digital computers, which use sequential algorithms. However, in most quantum computing approaches, the qubits themselves are treated as analog objects. One then needs to ask whether this computational speed-up of the computation is a result of the quantum mechanics, or whether it is due to the nature of the analog structures that are being ‘generated’ for quantum computation? In this paper, we will make two points: (1) quantum computation utilizes analog, parallel computation which often offers no speed advantage over classical computers which are implemented using analog, parallel computation; (2) once this is realized, then there is little advantage in projecting the quantum computation onto the pseudo-binary construct of a qubit. Rather, it becomes more effective to seek the equivalent wave processing that is inherent in the analog, parallel processing. We will examine some wave processing systems which may be useful for quantum computation.     

Shock wave chemistry

Abstract

Shock wave chemistry, a new scientific trend, deals with investigations of chemical aspects of the substance state under this new type of effect. Indeed, shock wave effect is not a greater imposition than pressure and temperature actions. Characteristic features of the effect are the tremendous rates of substance loading and subsequent unloading. The effects result in a substance in a strongly non- equilibrium state. The lifetime of the state is governed by the relaxation process of those phenomena which are provoked by shock waves in the substance. For instance, in the case of substance consisting of complex molecules with a large number of internal degrees of freedom, differing strongly in excitation times, all kinetic parts of the shock energy are at first absorbed by the translational degrees of freedom inside the shock wave front. Then, the energy is redistributed to the vibrational degrees of freedom. The non-equilibrium state time is not longer than the excitation time of the most slowly excited vibrational degrees of freedom (10¹⁰-10^?9 s). The same order of magnitude is the relaxation time of liquid substance polarization caused by dipolar molecules mechanically turning under the shock discontinuity zone effect. In polymers the zone turns some separate groups of polymer molecule atoms. In such a case the relaxation period, on the contrary, may last as long as it can. As far as “hot are concerned, their lifetime is determined by thermal relaxation regularities and it depends on their size. The hot spots in solids appear during the shock compression process at the sites of an imperfect substance structure. In liquids the hot spots can orighate when a shock wave front passes through negative density fluctuations. It transforms the fluctuations of very small size and of high probability into some positive temperature regions of large size and extremely low probability at equilibrium state behind the wave front. The hot spots in perfect solids (possibly in liquids too) appear due to the effect of shear stresses in shock front. Pointed and lengthy defects of solid structure occur under the effect. The lengthy defects appear in the shock wave front due to the transition from one-dimensional to volume compression. The transition takes place if the wave intensity is larger than the dynamic elastic limit of the solid under investigation. In brittle materials the transition results in their grinding into fragments and in the relative displacement of the fragments. Some liquid melted layers of substance appear between the fragments in the process of displacement. Their lifetime is also determined by the thermal relaxation regularities and probably is small. Nevertheless, the layers obviously govern the spall strength of brittle solids and promote solid-phase shock reactions. The defects created in solids by the shock effect can exist for a very long time if the solid substance residual temperature is lower than its recrystallization temperature. Therefore, solid substance treatment by shocks of proper intensity can increase their chemical reactivity.

Data analysis techniques for gravitational wave observations

Astrophysical sources of gravitational waves fall broadly into three categories: (i) transient and bursts, (ii) periodic or continuous wave and (iii) stochastic. Each type of source requires a different type of data analysis strategy. In this talk various data analysis strategies will be reviewed. Optimal filtering is used for extracting binary inspirals; Fourier transforms over Doppler shifted time intervals are computed for long duration periodic sources; optimally weighted cross-correlations for stochastic background. Some recent schemes which efficiently search for inspirals will be described. The performance of some of these techniques on real data obtained will be discussed. Finally, some results on cancellation of systematic noises in laser interferometric space antenna (LISA) will be presented and future directions indicated.

Topological constraint on scroll wave pinning

Scroll waves in an excitable medium rotate about tubelike filaments, whose ends, when they exist, can lie on the external boundary of the medium or be pinned to an inclusion. We derive a topological rule that governs such pinning. It implies that some configurations cannot occur although they might otherwise have been expected. Heart tissue provides an application of these concepts. Computational illustrations based on a FitzHugh-Nagumo model are given.     

Tachyons and superluminal wave groups

In the approximation that every inertial observer experiences a homogeneous, uniform flow of time and sees a space that is Euclidean, the arena of physics is Minkowskian and one speed is the same in all intertial frames. If a given intertial observer finds an infinitesimal source or particle traveling faster than this fundamental speed near a given event, the source must appear in some inertial frame spread over neighboring positions at a given time as a spacelike structure. If this structure persists over a period of proper time, it can be interpreted as a wave group. If it is conserved, it can be interpreted as a line or tube of force.     

Bayesian estimation of the wave function

Recently there have been many theoretical works on statistical inference in quantum systems. In the present Letter, we deal with the estimation of an unknown wave function under the assumption of a general parametric model. We propose the Bayesian estimation of a wave function and show the optimality result when we adopt the Bures distance as a loss function. We see some examples where the quantum state is better estimated by our method than by that based on the maximum-likelihood estimate.     

A full wave model of high-harmonic EMIC wave propagation in sheared magnetic fields

ABSTRACT

A new dispersion relation, with finite Larmor orbit effects, for oblique propagating electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves in a magnetized plasma medium, is derived including the magnetic shear effect. The approximate, yet accurate, dispersion relation is used to implement the ray tracing model. A parabolic magnetic field is considered to model the geomagnetic field in the magnetosphere. Energetic protons are also considered as resonant particles. The propagation characteristics of EMIC waves in the vicinity of the ion cyclotron resonances are investigated in some detail. The results reveal adiabatic oscillating motion for wave and magnetic field fluctuations where high harmonics limit the wave damping and confines the magnetic fluctuations. For inward propagating EMIC waves we find (1) turning points which depend on the wave launch position, and (2) wave trapped areas playing a role in quasi-coherent wave-particle interaction in agreement with the observational and theoretical studies. This wave trapping is an effective process for particle acceleration in the context of space plasmas.     

On Pollard's wave solution at the Equator

In this paper we present a dynamical study of the exact nonlinear Pollard wave solution to the geophysical water-wave problem in the f-plane approximation. We deduce an exact dispersion relation and we discuss some properties of this solution.     

Solitary wave solutions of nonlinear equations

A general semi-analytic method is suggested to obtain the solitary wave solutions for some kinds of nonlinear equations, by the combination of the function-series method and the simulated annealing technique. The validity and reliability of the method are tested by applying it to the study of a generalized φ⁴ equation. With the proper boundary and initial conditions, pulse-, kink- and breather-like solitons and their combinations are obtained.
