Forced Periodic and Quasi-Periodic Patterns in Anisotropic Systems

چکیده
We investigate pattern formation in two-dimensional anisotropic systems under an external spatially periodic modulation force. Electrohydrodynamic convection or RayleighB6nard convection of nematic liquid crystals are typical examples of anisotropic pattern forming systems. We are especially interested in the situation where the wave vector of the convection rolls and the wave vector of the external modulation force are not parallel to each other. On the basis of descriptions using amplitude equations we find various two-dimensional periodic and quasi-periodic patterns, such as rectangular pattern, skewed varicose pattern, undulations and their quasi-periodic generalizations. Temporal evolutions of a few patterns obtained by numerical simulations as well as a possible experiment are described.

Near-Resonant Steady Mode Interaction: Periodic, Quasi-periodic, and Localized Patterns
Motivated by the rich variety of complex periodic and quasi-periodic patterns found in systems such as two-frequency forced Faraday waves, we study the interaction of two spatially periodic modes that are nearly resonant. Within the framework of two coupled one-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau equations we investigate analytically the stability of the periodic solutions to general perturbations, inc...
متن کاملForced oscillations of a damped Korteweg-de Vries equation on a periodic domain
In this paper, we investigate a damped Korteweg-de Vries equation with forcing on a periodic domain $mathbb{T}=mathbb{R}/(2pimathbb{Z})$. We can obtain that if the forcing is periodic with small amplitude, then the solution becomes eventually time-periodic.
متن کاملQuasi-periodic motions in strongly dissipative forced systems
We consider a class of ordinary differential equations describing one-dimensional systems with a quasi-periodic forcing term and in the presence of large damping. We discuss the conditions to be assumed on the mechanical force and the forcing term for the existence of quasi-periodic solutions which have the same frequency vector as the forcing.
متن کاملConstruction of quasi-periodic response solutions in forced strongly dissipative systems
We consider a class of ordinary differential equations describing one-dimensional quasiperiodically forced systems in the presence of large damping. We give a fully constructive proof of the existence of response solutions, that is quasi-periodic solutions which have the same frequency vector as the forcing. This requires dealing with a degenerate implicit function equation: we prove that the l...

Ultra-short pulse is a promising technology for achieving ultra-high data rate transmission which is required to follow the increased demand of data transport over an optical communication system. Therefore, the propagation of such type of pulses and the effects that it may suffer during its transmission through an optical waveguide has received a great deal of attention in the recent years. We...
