Applied math. talk: Periodic travelling waves in nonlinear wave equations: modulation instability and rogue waves by Dmitry Pelinovsky, McMaster University, Canada
Abstract: I will overview the following different wave phenomena in integrable nonlinear wave equations: (1) universal patterns in the dynamics of fluxon condensates in the semi-classical limit; (2) modulational instability of periodic travelling waves; (3) rogue waves on the background of periodic and double-periodic waves. Main examples include the sine-Gordon equation, the nonlinear […]

Our muscles aren’t one-dimensional fibres (Prof. Nilima Nigam)
Title: Our muscles aren't one-dimensional fibres. Abstract: Skeletal muscles possess rather amazing mechanical properties. They possess an intricate structure, and behave nonlinearly in response to mechanical stresses. In the 1910s, […]
