复Ginzburg-Landau方程中模螺旋波的稳定性研究

研究了复Ginzburg-Landau方程系统中模螺旋波与其他斑图在同一平面内的竞争行为,发现演化结果在系统参数平面内可分为四个主要区域:在I区和III区中,模螺旋波与相螺旋波相比稳定性较差,模螺旋波的空间被相螺旋波所入侵.在II区中,模螺旋波具有较强的稳定性,相螺旋波的空间被模螺旋波所入侵.在IV区内,由于时空混沌所导致的频率不稳定性,演化的结果较为复杂.我们通过对模螺旋波、相螺旋波以及时空混沌的频率分析,发现当模螺旋波的系统参数为α1=-1.34,β1=0.35时,较高频率的模螺旋波具有较好的稳定性,高频模螺旋波可以入侵低频斑图空间.竞争结果主要受系统变量实部的频率影响,频率分析所得到的理论结果与数值实验结果符合得非常好.     

非对称耦合两层可激发介质中的螺旋波动力学

本文采用Bär-Eiswirth模型研究了两层可激发介质中螺旋波的动力学, 两层介质采用抑制和兴奋性非对称耦合. 数值模拟结果表明: 兴奋性非对称耦合可以促进两个不同频率的螺旋波锁频, 即使初始频率相差大, 两螺旋波也能实现锁频, 这种耦合使两个螺旋波具有最强的锁频能力; 当两层介质采用抑制性非对称耦合时, 只有当两个初始螺旋波的频率差比较小才能实现锁频, 而且比一般扩散耦合的锁频范围窄, 两螺旋波锁频能力达到最低水平; 当耦合强度和控制参数适当选取时, 抑制性和兴奋性非对称耦合既可以使其中一层介质维持螺旋波态, 使另一层介质中的螺旋波演化到静息态或低频靶波态, 也可以使两层介质中的螺旋波都漫游, 或都转变成靶波, 最后这两个靶波要么消失, 要么转变成平面波状的振荡斑图, 而且两层介质振荡是反相的, 此外在模拟中还观察到两螺旋波局部间歇锁频现象, 这些结果有助于人们理解在心脏系统中出现的复杂现象.     

Projective synchronization of two coupled excitable spiral waves

Interaction of two identical excitable spiral waves in a bilayer system is studied. We find that the two spiral waves can be completely synchronized if the coupling strength is sufficiently large. Prior to the complete synchronization, we find a new type of weak synchronization between the two coupled systems, i.e., the spiral wave of the driven system has the same geometric shape as the spiral wave of the driving system but with a much lower amplitude. This general behavior, called projective synchronization of two spiral waves, is similar to projective synchronization of two coupled nonlinear oscillators, which has been extensively studied before. The underlying mechanism is uncovered by the study of pulse collision in one-dimensional systems.

Multifrequency radiation force of acoustic waves in fluids

In this article we introduce the concept of multifrequency radiation force produced by a polychromatic acoustic beam propagating in a fluid. This force is a generalization of dynamic radiation force due to a bichromatic wave. We analyse the force exerted on a rigid sphere by a plane wave with N frequency components. Our approach is based on solving the related scattering problem, taking into account the nonlinearity of the fluid. The radiation force is calculated by integrating the excess of pressure in the quasilinear approximation over the surface of the sphere. Results reveal that the spectrum of the multifrequency radiation force is composed of up to N(N−1)/2 distinct frequency components. In addition, the radiation force generated by plane progressive waves is predominantly caused by parametric amplification. This is a phenomenon due to the nonlinear nature of wave propagation in fluids.     

Dynamics of Spiral Waves Induced by Periodic Mechanical Deformation with Phase Difference

The dynamics of spiral waves under the influences of periodic mechanical deformation are studied. Here, the mechanical deformation propagating along the medium with phase differences are considered. It is found that weak mechanical deformation may lead to resonant drift of spiral waves. The drift direction and velocity can be changed by the wave length of the deformation. Strong mechanical deformation may result in breakup of spiral waves. The characteristics of breakup are discussed. The critical amplitudes are determined by two factors, i.e. the wave length and frequency of the periodic mechanical deformation. When the wave length of mechanical deformation is comparable to the spiral wave, simulation shows that the critical amplitude is substantially increased. As the frequency of the mechanical deformation is around 1.5 times of the spiral wave, the critical amplitudes are minimal.     

New standing solitary waves in water

By means of the parametric excitation of water waves in a Hele-Shaw cell, we report the existence of two new types of highly localized, standing surface waves of large amplitude. They are, respectively, of odd and even symmetry. Both standing waves oscillate subharmonically with the forcing frequency. The two-dimensional even pattern presents a certain similarity in the shape with the 3D axisymmetric oscillon originally recognized at the surface of a vertically vibrated layer of brass beads. The stable, 2D odd standing wave has never been observed before in any media.     

Analytic waves

Physical aspects of wave theory are discussed. Analytic waves (AW) neatly define the amplitude and frequency of real running waves and generalize and justify some points of wave theory. It is shown that the local group delay averaged in frequency defines the velocity of a wave center at each point. An asymptotic solution is developed for running spectra in slowly varying media. Also, Whitham's method is generalized not only for the frequency but also the amplitude of a wave. The theory is applied to quantum mechanics, and the paradox of tunneling is clarified. This paradox is not specifically quantum but occurs and can be explained in a classical area.     

Rotating spiral waves in excitable media: The analytical results

In this paper we calculate the rotation frequency of spiral waves as a function of the parameters of the excitable medium. We give the complete analytical solution in the special case of the Rinzel-Keller model and suggest an analytical procedure for general two-component relaxational reaction-diffusion models. This procedure is based on the Greenberg equation and stability analysis; it is applicable when the core of a spiral wave is large as compared with the characteristic diffusion length. Construction of spiral wave solutions for the waves inside ring channels, circular regions, or around holes is discussed. Multi-armed spiral waves are investigated.     

用低通滤波方法终止心脏组织中的螺旋波和时空混沌

通过让心肌细胞钠离子通道的触发门变量延迟打开, 使介质具有激发延迟能力, 介质延迟激发时间随控制电压和刺激频率增加而增加, 当控制电压超过一个阈值时, 延迟激发介质具有低通滤波作用:低频波可以连续通过, 而高频波不能连续通过. 本文用Luo-Rudy相I模型研究了介质延迟激发对螺旋波和时空混沌的影响, 数值模拟结果表明: 当控制电压超过阈值时, 介质的延迟激发可有效消除螺旋波和时空混沌; 从小逐渐增大控制电压, 在钙最大电导率较小情况下, 延迟激发会导致介质激发性降低, 使螺旋波漫游幅度增大, 直至传导障碍导致螺旋波消失; 当钙最大电导率较大时, 延迟激发会导致螺旋波失稳变弱, 这样当控制电压增加到一定值时, 时空混沌可以演化成漫游螺旋波, 当控制参数被适当选取时, 观察到漫游幅度大的螺旋波漫游出系统边界消失现象, 继续增大控制电压将导致时空混沌直接消失.

在兴奋-抑制混沌神经元网络中有序波的自发形成

大脑皮层在一定条件下可以自发出现螺旋波和平面波,为了了解这些有序波的产生机制,构造了一个双层的二维神经元网络.该网络由最近邻兴奋性耦合和长程抑制性耦合层组成,采用修改后的Hindmarsh-Rose神经元模型研究了该混沌神经元网络从具有随机相位分布的初态演化是否能自发出现各种有序波.数值模拟结果表明:当抑制性耦合强度比较小时,系统一般不会自发出现有序波;在兴奋性耦合强度足够大的情况下,抑制性耦合强度越大,系统越容易产生有序波.系统出现不同的有序波与系统初态和耦合强度有密切关系,适当选择兴奋性和抑制性耦合的耦合强度,系统会自发出现迷宫斑图、平面波、单螺旋波、多螺旋波、旋转方向相反的螺旋波对、双臂螺旋波、靶波、向内方形波等有序波斑图.螺旋波、迷宫斑图和内向方形波出现概率分别达到27.5%, 21.5%和10.0%,这里的迷宫斑图是由不同传播方向的许多平面波组成,其他有序波出现概率比较小.研究结果有助于理解发生在大脑皮层中的自组织现象.     

The effect of parametrically excited spin waves on the dispersion and damping of magnetostatic surface waves in ferrite films

This paper describes an experimental study of variations of the dispersion and damping of magnetostatic surface waves in ferrite films, caused by three-and four-magnon interactions with parametric spin waves excited by an auxiliary surface magnetostatic pump wave with frequency f _p. The variations in the dispersion and damping were identified, respectively, with variations Δk″ in the real part and Δk′ in the imaginary part of the wave number of the surface magnetostatic wave. The Δk″ and Δk′ values were determined from the ratio of the changes of the phase increment Δφ and the amplitude increment ΔA of the surface magnetostatic wave to the length L of the nonequilibrium section of the film, where the parametric spin waves exist. It is found that, when three-magnon decay processes are allowed for the pump wave and the surface magnetostatic probe wave, the probe wave can substantially alter the distribution of the parametric spin waves in the film.

Interference of opposing longitudinal acoustic waves in an isotropic absorbing plate and a periodic structure with defects

Interference of longitudinal acoustic waves propagating in opposite directions in a homogeneous isotropic absorbing plate and a periodic structure with a defect is considered theoretically. The periodic structure consists of alternating absorbing solid and transparent liquid layers. The defect is modeled by replacing a solid layer by a liquid layer of the same thickness. The dependences of the transmission spectrum of the energy flux on the amplitude ratio and phase difference of the interacting waves are studied. It is shown that, by varying the parameters of the opposite pressure wave, it is possible to change the transmission spectrum of the direct wave in a wide frequency range. An expression is obtained to determine the extremums of the wave amplitude transmitted through an absorbing plate depending on the amplitude ratio of the interacting waves. The results of studying a one-dimensional periodic structure demonstrate the possibility to considerably change the transmission spectrum of the pressure wave leaving the structure and also to eliminate the invariance of this spectrum under the interchange of the kth and (n?k+1)th layers (where n is the total number of layers in the structure).

Parametric generation of whistler waves due to the interaction of high-frequency wave beams with a magnetoplasma

The parametric generation of low-frequency whistler waves by a pump wave beam formed by high-frequency whistler waves with close frequencies is studied experimentally. The electromagnetic fields excited by the beats of two co- or counterpropagating high-frequency waves, or by an amplitude-modulated pump are studied. It is shown that the nonlinear currents at the beat (modulation) frequency are generated by a transverse ponderomotive force arising due to the finite width of the high-frequency beam. In this case, the nonlinear azimuthal drift currents enclose the pump beam and can radiate low-frequency whistler waves to the surrounding plasma.     

Localization of nonlinear waves in elastic bodies with inclusions

By the example of the problem of the motion of a semi-infinite string lying on an elastic base, a method for describing wave localization near inclusions is proposed for the case of a cubic nonlinearity of the base. The method applies the perturbation technique to the amplitude of a localized mode. The nature of the divergences is revealed, and the secular terms are found to belong to one of two types: inphase or antiphase with the localized wave. It is shown that a combination of the renormalization method and multiscale method provides a convergence of the solutions, which are sought for in the form of power series in the amplitude of the localized mode. It is found that the localization process is determined by the type of the discrete spectrum, type of the nonlinearity, and type of dispersion. The nonlinearity of the elastic base produces two characteristic effects. First, the frequency of the localized wave becomes dependent on the wave amplitude. Second, the system can generate traveling waves at multiple frequencies, which withdraw energy from the localized wave and cause it to decay. The decay behavior is determined by the minimum frequency of these traveling waves (because it must be higher than the cutoff frequency). The lifetime of the localized wave as a function of the mass of a dynamic inclusion exhibits a number of maxima. In particular, the first maximum corresponds to the minimum amplitude of the traveling wave at the triple frequency.
