Nonlinear Coherent Structures in Granular Crystals
C. Chong, Mason A. Porter, P. G. Kevrekidis +1
The study of granular crystals, metamaterials that consist of closely packed arrays of particles that interact elastically, is a vibrant area of research that combines ideas from d…
Wave mixing in coupled phononic crystals via a variable stiffness mechanism
Gil-Yong Lee, Christopher Chong, Panayotis Kevrekidis +1
We investigate wave mixing effects in a phononic crystal that couples the wave dynamics of two channels -- primary and control ones -- via a variable stiffness mechanism. We demons…
A mechanical autonomous stochastic heat engine
Marc Serra-Garcia, André Foehr, Miguel Molerón +3
Stochastic heat engines are devices that generate work from random thermal motion using a small number of highly fluctuating degrees of freedom. Proposals for such devices have exi…
