The Strong Integral Input-to-State Stability Property in Dynamical Flow Networks

Nils Gustav Nilsson

Dynamical flow networks serve as macroscopic models for, e.g., transportation networks, queuing networks, and distribution networks. While the flow dynamics in such networks follow the conservation of mass on the links, the outflow from each link is often ...

Swirling against the forcing: Evidence of stable counterdirected sloshing waves in orbital-shaken reservoirs

François Gallaire, Alessandro Bongarzone, Alice Evelyne Julienne Marcotte

We investigate the response of the free liquid surface in a partially filled circular cylindrical container undergoing a planar elliptic and time-periodic orbit while maintaining fixed its orientation. For small forcing amplitudes and deep liquid layers, w ...

Constructing periodic orbits of high-dimensional chaotic systems by an adjoint-based variational method

Tobias Schneider, Omid Ashtari, Sajjad Azimi

Chaotic dynamics in systems ranging from low-dimensional nonlinear differential equations to high-dimensional spatiotemporal systems including fluid turbulence is supported by nonchaotic, exactly recurring time-periodic solutions of the governing equations ...

Invariant tori in dissipative hyperchaos

Tobias Schneider, Jeremy Peter Parker

One approach to understand the chaotic dynamics of nonlinear dissipative systems is the study of non-chaotic yet dynamically unstable invariant solutions embedded in the system's chaotic attractor. The significance of zero-dimensional unstable fixed points ...

Scattering Map for the Vlasov–Poisson System

Klaus Martin Widmayer

We construct (modified) scattering operators for the Vlasov–Poisson system in three dimensions, mapping small asymptotic dynamics as t→−∞ to asymptotic dynamics as t→+∞. The main novelty is the construction of modified wave operators, but we also obtain a ...

Periodic orbits exhibit oblique stripe patterns in plane Couette flow

Tobias Schneider, Florian Reetz

Spatiotemporally chaotic dynamics of transitional plane Couette flow may give rise to regular turbulent-laminar stripe patterns with a large-scale pattern wavelength and an oblique orientation relative to the laminar flow direction. A recent dynamical syst ...

Learning dynamical systems with bifurcations

Aude Billard, Farshad Khadivar, Ilaria Lauzana

Trajectory planning through dynamical systems (DS) provides robust control for robots and has found numerous applications from locomotion to manipulation. However, to date, DS for controlling rhythmic patterns are distinct from DS used to control point to ...

Geometric mixing

Nicolas Piro Mastracchio

Mixing fluids often involves a periodic action, like stirring one's tea. But reciprocating motions in fluids at low Reynolds number, in Stokes flows where inertia is negligible, lead to periodic cycles of mixing and unmixing, because the physics, molecular ...

Computing heteroclinic orbits using adjoint-based methods

Michele De Palma, Tobias Schneider, Mirko Farano

Transitional turbulence in shear flows is supported by a network of unstable exact invariant solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations. The network is interconnected by heteroclinic connections along which the turbulent trajectories evolve between invariant ...

Exponentially long orbits in Hopfield neural networks

Wulfram Gerstner, Johanni Michael Brea, Samuel Pavio Muscinelli

We show that Hopfield neural networks with synchronous dynamics and asymmetric weights admit stable orbits that form sequences of maximal length. For N units, these sequences have length T = 2^N; that is, they cover the full state space. We present a mathe ...

Floquet theory for seasonal environmental forcing of spatially explicit waterborne epidemics

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari

The transmission of waterborne pathogens is a complex process that is heavily linked to the spatial characteristics of the underlying environmental matrix as well as to the temporal variability of the relevant hydroclimatological drivers. In this work, we ...

A codimension two stable manifold of near soliton equivariant wave maps

Joachim Krieger

We consider finite-energy equivariant solutions for the wave map problem from ℝ2+1 to S2 which are close to the soliton family. We prove asymptotic orbital stability for a codimension-two class of initial data which is small with respect to a stronger topo ...

Modulation of motor primitives using force feedback: Interaction with the environment and bimanual tasks

Auke Ijspeert

The framework of dynamic movement primitives allows the generation of discrete and periodic trajectories, which can be modulated in various aspects. We propose and evaluate a novel modulation approach that includes force feedback and thus allows physical i ...

Ground state properties of large atoms and quantum dots

We investigate the ground state properties of large atoms and quantum dots described by a d-dimensional N-body Hamiltonian of confinement ZV. In atoms, d = 3 and V is the Coulomb interaction; in dots, d = 2 and V is phenomenologically determined. We expres ...
