From Luzon Strait to Dongsha Plateau: Stages in the Life of an Internal Wave [PDF]
Oceanography, 2011 Tidal currents in Luzon Strait south of Taiwan generate some of the largest internal waves anywhere in the ocean. Recent collaborative efforts between oceanographers from the United States and Taiwan explored the generation, evolution, and ...

Spectral methods for internal waves: indistinguishable density profiles and double-humped solitary waves [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2011 Internal solitary waves are widely observed in both the oceans and large lakes. They can be described by a variety of mathematical theories, covering the full spectrum from first order asymptotic theory (i.e.

Lie Group Analysis of a Nonlinear Coupled System of Korteweg-de Vries Equations
European Journal of Mathematical Analysis, 2021 In this paper, we consider coupled Korteweg-de Vries equations that model the propagation of shallow water waves, ion-acoustic waves in plasmas, solitons, and nonlinear perturbations along internal surfaces between layers of different densities in ...

, 2017 Nonlinear waves that collide with localized defects exhibit complex behavior. Apart from reflection, transmission, and annihilation of an incident wave, a local inhomogeneity can activate internal modes of solitons, producing many impressive phenomena ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A chiral photodetector capable of selectively distinguishing left‐ and right‐handed circularly polarized light is experimentally demonstrated. The device, which features a nanopatterned electrode inverse‐designed by a genetic algorithm within a metal–dielectric–metal nanocavity that incorporates a vacuum‐deposited small‐molecule multilayer, exhibits ...

Propagation Evolution Characteristics of Weakly Nonlinear Internal Solitary Waves on Slopes
Shanghai Jiaotong Daxue xuebao, 2021 The propagation equation of variable-coefficient internal solitary waves was used to describe the propagation and evolution of weakly nonlinear internal solitary waves (ISWs)on slopes with different slopes.

Mixing Driven by Breaking Nonlinear Internal Waves [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 AbstractNon‐linear internal waves (NLIW) are important to processes such as heat transfer, nutrient replenishment and sediment transport on continental shelves. Our unique field observations of shoaling NLIW of elevation revealed a variety of different wave shapes, varying from relatively symmetric waves, to waves with either steepened leading‐ or ...

Domain Wall Rebounds Driven by Competing Entropic and Spin‐Transfer Torques in Cylindrical Nanowires
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Domain‐wall motion in cylindrical magnetic nanowires driven by nanosecond current pulses. Low current densities efficiently displace domain walls, whereas higher currents cause rebound at the wire ends. The effect results from the interplay between spin‐transfer torque and thermally induced processes, highlighting the role of thermal gradients in ...

Multi-component gap solitons in spinor Bose-Einstein condensates
, 2006 We model the nonlinear behaviour of spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) with repulsive spin-independent interactions and either ferromagnetic or anti-ferromagnetic (polar) spin-dependent interactions, loaded into a one-dimensional optical lattice ...
