Nonlinear Plasma Waves

The Physics of Fluids, 1971
A numerical solution of the equations for unstable electrostatic plasma waves propagating in a uniform infinite plasma with a weak beam is performed. Space dependent variables are Fourier transformed and the computations are done first with only one and then with two harmonics included.

Nonlinear Wave-Wave Interactions

Journal of Coastal Research, 2008
Abstract A selected record of the measured wind wave data, which contained the maximum wave height during a mistral event, was divided into five segments, and computations of wavelet bicoherence were conducted for the whole record and for all divided segments in order to analyze the details of nonlinear wave-wave interactions.

Weinberg’s nonlinear wave mechanics

Physical Review A, 1990
From Weinberg's nonlinear wave equation we derive the nonlinear generalization of the optical Bloch equations with radiative damping. We compare these equations with Fermi's nonlinear radiation-reaction theory and with Jaynes's neoclassical theory.

Nonlinear Waves of Vorticity

Studies in Applied Mathematics, 2001
This is a review of solutions of the vorticity equation for two‐dimensional flow of an inviscid incompressible fluid that represent nonlinear waves. Geophysical applications are emphasized. Some of the solutions are valid in the beta‐plane of Rossby. Some are related to weakly nonlinear perturbations of basic parallel flows and axisymmetric flows, to ...

Biaxial nonlinear surface waves

Physical Review E, 1996
Summary form only given. The combination of linear guiding and nonlinear self-guiding effects present in nonlinear waveguides lead to a variety of phenomena that are absent in linear wave guides. The inclusion of anisotropy is often important because of the inherent strain near the interface between two dissimilar coherently grown crystals. This strain

Weakly Nonlinear Detonation Waves

SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 1983
The authors develop a simplified asymptotic model for studying nonlinear detonation waves in chemically reacting fluids which propagate with wave speed close to the acoustical sound speed. The two main assumptions in deriving the asymptotic model are weak nonlinearity and a sufficiently high activation energy for the chemical kinetics.

Nonlinear Waves

1983
The outcome of a conference held in East Carolina University in June 1982, this book provides an account of developments in the theory and application of nonlinear waves in both fluids and plasmas. Twenty-two contributors from eight countries here cover all the main fields of research, including nonlinear water waves, K-dV equations, solitions and ...

Nonlinear Dispersive Waves

SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 1965
A general theory is developed for studying changes of a wave train governed by non-linear partial differential equations. The technique is to average over the local oscillations in the medium and so obtain differential equations for the variations in amplitude, wave number, etc.
