Heteroclinic dynamics in a model of Faraday waves in a square container
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study periodic orbits associated with heteroclinic bifurcations in a model of the Faraday system for containers with square cross-section and single-frequency forcing. These periodic orbits correspond to quasiperiodic surface waves in the physical system. The heteroclinic bifurcations are related to a continuum of heteroclinic connections in the integrable Hamiltonian limit, some of which persist in the presence of small damping. The dynamics in the neighborhood of one of the heteroclinic bifurcations are examined in detail using approximate Poincaré maps, with predictions that agree with numerical computations. The results suggest a great richness of possible dynamics of Faraday waves even in simple geometries and with single-frequency forcing. © 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Heteroclinic dynamics in the nonlocal parametrically driven nonlinear Schrödinger equation
Faraday waves are described, under appropriate conditions, by a damped nonlocal parametrically driven nonlinear Schrödinger equation. As the strength of the applied forcing increases this equation undergoes a sequence of transitions to chaotic dynamics. The origin of these transitions is explained using a careful study of a two-mode Galerkin truncation and linked to the presence of heteroclinic...
متن کاملWall Effect in 3D Simulation Of Same Sized Particles Packing
In this paper, the effects of container size on the porosity of random loose packing of mono size particles have been investigated using an Event Dynamics (ED) based model. Simultaneous effects of square container walls on particles packing and their order are also investigated. Our simulation results indicate higher container size will increase the total packing factor and high density regions...
متن کاملCoupled Amplitude-Streaming Flow Equations for Nearly Inviscid Faraday Waves in Small Aspect Ratio Containers
We derive a set of asymptotically exact coupled amplitude-streaming flow (CASF) equations governing the evolution of weakly nonlinear nearly inviscid multimode Faraday waves and the associated streaming flow in finite geometries. The streaming flow is found to play a particularly important role near mode interactions. Such interactions come about either through a suitable choice of parameters o...
متن کاملResonant triad dynamics in weakly damped Faraday waves with two-frequency forcing
Many of the interesting patterns seen in recent multi-frequency Faraday experiments can be understood on the basis of three-wave interactions (resonant triads). In this paper we consider two-frequency forcing and focus on a resonant triad that occurs near the bicritical point where two pattern-forming modes with distinct wavenumbers emerge simultaneously. This triad has been observed directly (...
متن کاملPhase relaxation of Faraday surface waves.
Surface waves on a liquid-air interface excited by a vertical vibration of a fluid layer (Faraday waves) are employed to investigate the phase relaxation of ideally ordered patterns. By means of a combined frequency-amplitude modulation of the excitation signal a periodic expansion and dilatation of a square wave pattern is generated, the dynamics of which is well described by a Debye relaxator...
