In the third edition the presentation of new topics has been deliberately kept simple for
pedagogical purposes. Chapter 1 was completed by references to the tidal bore and …

A nonlinear system possessing a natural forbidden band gap can transmit energy of a signal
with a frequency in the gap, as recently shown for a nonlinear chain of coupled pendulums …

Chains of parametrically driven, damped pendula are known to support solitonlike clusters
of in-phase motion which become unstable and seed spatiotemporal chaos for sufficiently …

An array of coupled short junctions (Josephson junction parallel array) is shown to be able
to response to ultra-weak signals when it is worked at the onset of nonlinear …

In this paper, we provide a numerical approximation to the occurrence of the process of
nonlinear supratransmission in semiunbounded, discrete,(2+ 1)-dimensional systems of …

In the present Letter, we simulate the propagation of binary signals in semi-infinite,
mechanical chains of coupled oscillators harmonically driven at the end, by making use of …

We show that the (undamped) parametrically driven nonlinear Schrödinger equation has
wide classes of traveling soliton solutions, some of which are stable. For small driving …

The influence of impurities on envelope waves in a driven nonlinear pendulum chain is
investigated under a continuum-limit approximation. The impurities studied here are a single …

A quantum Hall double layer system at total Landau level filling factor ν= 1, seeded by a
modulated ac-voltage input signal of frequency inside the forbidden band gap, is …

The phenomenon of intrinsic localization in discrete nonlinear extended systems, ie the
(generic) existence of discrete breathers, is shown to be not restricted to periodic solutions …
