A Real-Time Detection System for the Onset of Parametric Resonance in Wave Energy Converters
Parametric resonance is a dynamic instability due to the internal transfer of energy between degrees of freedom. Parametric resonance is known to cause large unstable pitch and/or roll motions in floating bodies, and has been observed in wave energy ...

Plasmonic Parametric Resonance [PDF]
We introduce the concept of Plasmonic Parametric Resonance (PPR) as a novel way to amplify high angular momentum plasmonic modes of nanoparticles by means of a simple uniform optical pump. In analogy with parametric resonance in dynamical systems, PPR originates from the temporal modulation of one of the parameters governing the evolution of the state ...

Numerical investigation of parametric resonance due to hydrodynamic coupling in a realistic wave energy converter. [PDF]
Representative models of the nonlinear behavior of floating platforms are essential for their successful design, especially in the emerging field of wave energy conversion where nonlinear dynamics can have substantially detrimental effects on the ...

Parametric-Resonance Entangling Gates with a Tunable Coupler [PDF]
High-fidelity parametric gates have been demonstrated with superconducting qubits via rf flux modulation of the qubit frequency. The modulation however leads to renormalization of the bare qubit-qubit coupling, thereby reducing the gate speed.

Graviton to photon conversion via parametric resonance [PDF]
We study the parametric resonance excitation of the electromagnetic field by a gravitational wave. We show that there is narrow band resonance. For an electromagnetic field in the vacuum the resonance occurs only in the second band, and its strength is ...

Coexisting attractors in floating body dynamics undergoing parametric resonance
This study pertains to analysing the dynamical behaviour of a floating body undergoing parametric resonances. A simple vertical cylinder, representing a classical spar-buoy, is considered, limiting its motion to heave and pitch degrees of freedom.

Wavenumber lock-in and spatial parametric resonance in convection
Analysis of convection driven by spatial periodic heating shows a wealth of responses due to Prandtl number dependence. The primary convection is delineated by the heating wavenumber and the secondary convection is characterized by the critical ...

How to suppress exponential growth—on the parametric resonance of photons in an axion background [PDF]
Axion-photon interactions can lead to an enhancement of the electromagnetic field by parametric resonance in the presence of a cold axion background, for modes with a frequency close to half the axion mass.

Tuning nonlinear damping in graphene nanoresonators by parametric–direct internal resonance
Mechanical sources of nonlinear damping play a central role in modern physics, from solid-state physics to thermodynamics. The microscopic theory of mechanical dissipation suggests that nonlinear damping of a resonant mode can be strongly enhanced when ...
