Adaptive feedforward control of a rectangular panel using a wave filter constructed with point sensors

This paper presents the wave filtering method for a rectangular panel, which is necessary for a feedforward wave control system, and clarifies its validity in the control system. Firstly, a wave solution of a rectangular panel is derived to describe the wave dynamics of the structure. This is followed by the derivation of the wave filtering equations that indicates the structure of the filter. It is found that the proposed wave filter consists of a modal filter, a rearrangement filter and a wave decomposition filter. Then, from the viewpoint of numerical simulations, the characteristics of the wave propagation in a rectangular panel as well as the accuracy of the wave fitter are verified. For the evaluation of the filter accuracy, the condition number is used as a performance index. Finally, an experiment on the adaptive feedforward control system using the wave filter is carried out, demonstrating that the reflected wave absorbing control enables the inactivation of vibration modes.     

On the velocity of propagation of a frequency-modulated wave packet in a dispersive absorbing medium

It is shown that the velocity of propagation of a frequency-modulated wave packet through a strongly dispersive absorbing medium can be significantly different from (either higher or lower than) that of a non-frequency-modulated wave packet. This difference is attributed to the absorption dispersion of the medium. The easiest way to take the absorption dispersion into account is to use the formalism of the complex group velocity of a wave packet. This paper considers the propagation of a linear frequency-modulated wave packet, whose carrier frequency is close to the frequency of a spectral absorption line of the medium.     

Inclined periodic homoclinic breather and rogue waves for the (1+1)-dimensional Boussinesq equation

A new method, homoclinic (heteroclinic) breather limit method (HBLM), for seeking rogue wave solution to nonlinear evolution equation (NEE) is proposed. (1+1)-dimensional Boussinesq equation is used as an example to illustrate the effectiveness of the suggested method. Rational homoclinic wave solution, a new family of two-wave solution, is obtained by inclined periodic homoclinic breather wave solution and is just a rogue wave solution. This result shows that rogue wave originates by the extreme behaviour of homoclinic breather wave in (1+1)-dimensional nonlinear wave fields.

Early detection of rogue waves in a chaotic wave field

The ability to unveil growing rogue waves in the ocean is essential for safe marine travel in stormy conditions. This vital problem has not been adequately addressed so far. We show that the specific triangular spectra of rogue waves can be detected at early stages of their development in a chaotic wave field. Continuously measuring the spectra of various parts of the wave field allows us to find a rogue wave before the dangerous peak appears. This possibility of early detection is a necessary part of a rogue wave early-warning system.     

Numerical method of studying nonlinear interactions between long waves and multiple short waves

Although the nonlinear interactions between a single short gravity wave and a long wave can be solved analytically, the solution is less tractable in more general cases involving multiple short waves. In this work we present a numerical method of studying nonlinear interactions between a long wave and multiple short harmonic waves in infinitely deep water. Specifically, this method is applied to the calculation of the temporal and spatial evolutions of the surface elevations in which a given long wave interacts with several short harmonic waves. Another important application of our method is to quantitatively analyse the nonlinear interactions between an arbitrary short wave train and another short wave train. From simulation results, we obtain that the mechanism for the nonlinear interactions between one short wave train and another short wave train (expressed as wave train 2) leads to the energy focusing of the other short wave train (expressed as wave train 3). This mechanism occurs on wave components with a narrow frequency bandwidth, whose frequencies are near that of wave train 3.     

Dispersion characteristics of surface magnetostatic waves with dissipation

It is shown that unlike undamped waves, the dispersion characteristics of spin surface waves with dissipation have a maximum wave number at which there is a downward reversal in the dispersion curve of a wave number. This forms the upper branch of a dispersion curve with inverse dispersion and high attenuation, leading to an unclear frequency dependence of the wave vector. The lower primary dispersion branch corresponds to waves with forward dispersion, and attenuation is proportional to the small parameter of dissipation. However, the coefficient of wave attenuation grows sharply near the maximum wave number. Some angular and frequency limits of surface wave propagation change as well.

Anomalous behavior of the transverse acoustoelectric effect in superconductors with a moving vortex structure and the formation of acoustic vortex domains

It is shown that a longitudinal ultrasonic wave in superconductors with a moving vortex structure creates an additional transverse acoustoelectric field proportional to the power of this wave. This field changes its sign when the velocity of the vortex structure is lower than the velocity of the ultrasonic wave. This behavior qualitatively distinguishes this effect from a similar effect on the conduction electrons in semiconductors. Such a behavior of the acoustoelectric field, together with the effect of the amplification of the ultrasonic wave, can give rise to the negative differential conductivity and, therefore, to the formation of acoustic vortex domains in the superconductor.

Traveling wave solutions of a reaction-diffusion model for bacterial growth

In this paper, we consider a reaction-diffusion model for the bacterial growth. Mathematical analysis on the traveling wave solutions of the model is performed. This includes traveling wave analysis and numerical simulations of wave front propagation for a special case. Specifically, we show that such solutions exist only for wave speeds greater than some minimum speed giving wave with a sharp front. The minimum speed is estimated and the wave profile is calculated and compared with different numerical methods.     

On a fourth-order wave equation for EM propagation in chiral media

A fourth-order wave equation is derived to study the propagation of an electromagnetic (EM) wave in a medium composed of chiral objects. This approximate wave equation does not reflect the handedness of the medium directly, which is more readily apparent, however, in a pair of two coupled second-order wave equations obtaineden route.     

Scattered wave packet formalism with markovian outgoing wave boundary conditions for open quantum systems

The scattered wave formalism is developed for a quantum subsystem interacting with the external environment through open boundaries. The total wave function is divided into incident and scattered components and Markovian outgoing wave boundary conditions are applied to the scattered wave function. This formalism significantly reduces the computational effort relative to other methods which rely on Green functions and memory kernels. The method is applied to one-dimensional barrier scattering and to a three-dimensional model for the field effect transistor.     

Generation of THz Radiation by Laser Plasma Interaction

This paper presents the three wave parametric decay process to generate the Terahertz (THz) radiations in magnetized plasma. The pump wave (Laser beam) is considered in the extraordinary mode (x‐mode), propagating perpendicular to the background magnetic field. This pump wave decays into an upper hybrid wave and a THz wave which is in magnetosonic mode. The appropriate expressions for the coupling coefficients of the threewave interaction and THz wave amplitude have been derived. Subsequently, the growth rate of this decay instability is also calculated. Various laser and plasma parameters were optimized and we report efficiency of the order of ～1.4 × 10^–2 for current scheme. (© 2013 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Quantized fields propagating in plane-wave spacetimes

This paper contains an account of the interaction of a quantized massive scalar field with the classicalc number gravitational field of a plane sandwich wave of arbitrary profile and polarization. It is shown that the time varying gravitational field of the wave produces no particles and the Feynman propagator for the problem is calculated exactly. This is used to show that any reasonable regularization of the vacuum expectation value of the energy momentum tensor of the field must vanish. This means that a gravitational wave far from its source will propagate without hindrance by quantum effects.     

Misinterpretation yields supervelocities during transmission of wave packets through a barrier

This paper is concerned with the transmission time of an incident Gaussian wave packet through a symmetric rectangular barrier. Following Hartman (J. Appl. Phys. 33, 3427 (1962)), the transmission time is usually taken as the difference between the time at which the peak of the transmitted packet leaves the barrier of thickness and the time at which the peak of the incident Gaussian wave packet arrives at the barrier. This yields a corresponding transmission velocity which appears under certain conditions as a supervelocity, i.e. becomes larger than the corresponding propagation velocity in free space which is the group velocity for electrons or the velocity of light for photons, respectively. By analysing the propagation of a broadband wave packet (which leads in free space to an extremely concentrated wave packet at a certain time) we obtain the pulse response function of the barrier and show that the insertion of the barrier is physically unable to produce a supervelocity. Therefore, the peak of an incident Gaussian wave packet and the peak of the transmitted wave packet are in no causal relationship. The shape of the transmitted wave packet is produced from the incident wave by convolution with the pulse response of the barrier. This yields a distortion of the shape of the wave packet which includes also the observed negative time shift of the peak. We demonstrate further that the phenomenon of Hartman's supervelocities is not restricted to barriers with their exponentially decaying fields but occurs for instance also in transmission lines with an inserted LCR circuit.
