Stabilization of direct numerical simulation for finite truncations of circular cumulant expansions

We study a numerical instability of direct simulations with truncated equation chains for the "circular cumulant" representation and two approaches to its suppression. The approaches are tested for a chimera-bearing hierarchical population of coupled oscillators. The stabilization techniques can be efficiently applied without significant effect on the natural system dynamics within a finite vicinity of the Ott-Antonsen manifold for direct numerical simulations with up to 20 cumulants; with increasing deviation from the Ott-Antonsen manifold the stabilization becomes more problematic.

Relationships between the Distribution of Watanabe-Strogatz Variables and Circular Cumulants for Ensembles of Phase Elements

The Watanabe-Strogatz and Ott-Antonsen theories provided a seminal framework for rigorous and comprehensive studies of collective phenomena in a broad class of paradigmatic models for ensembles of coupled oscillators. Recently, a "circular cumulant" approach was suggested for constructing the perturbation theory for the Ott-Antonsen approach. In this paper, we derive the relations between the distribution of Watanabe-Strogatz phases and the circular cumulants of the original phases. These relations are important for the interpretation of the circular cumulant approach in the context of the Watanabe-Strogatz and Ott-Antonsen theories. Special attention is paid to the case of hierarchy of circular cumulants, which is generally relevant for constructing perturbation theories for the Watanabe-Strogatz and Ott-Antonsen approaches.

Interplay of the mechanisms of synchronization by common noise and global coupling for a general class of limit-cycle oscillators

We construct an analytical theory of interplay between synchronizing effects by common noise and by global coupling for a general class of smooth limit-cycle oscillators. Both the cases of attractive and repulsive coupling are considered. The derivation is performed within the framework of the phase reduction, which fully accounts for the amplitude degrees of freedom. Firstly, we consider the case of identical oscillators subject to intrinsic noise, obtain the synchronization condition, and find that the distribution of phase deviations always possesses lower-law heavy tails. Secondly, we consider the case of nonidentical oscillators. For the average oscillator frequency as a function of the natural frequency mismatch, limiting scaling laws are derived; these laws exhibit the nontrivial phenomenon of frequency repulsion accompanying synchronization under negative coupling. The analytical theory is illustrated with examples of Van der Pol and Van der Pol--Duffing oscillators and the neuron-like FitzHugh--Nagumo system; the results are also underpinned by the direct numerical simulation for ensembles of these oscillators.

Comparison of the effect of horizontal vibrations on interfacial waves in a two-layer system of inviscid liquids to effective gravity inversion

We study the waves at the interface between two thin horizontal layers of immiscible liquids subject to high-frequency tangential vibrations. Nonlinear governing equations are derived for the cases of two- and three-dimensional flows and arbitrary ratio of layer thicknesses. The derivation is performed within the framework of the long-wavelength approximation, which is relevant as the linear instability of a thin-layers system is long-wavelength. The dynamics of equations is integrable and the equations themselves can be compared to the Boussinesq equation for the gravity waves in shallow water, which allows one to compare the action of the vibrational field to the action of the gravity and its possible effective inversion.

Collective mode reductions for populations of coupled noisy oscillators

We analyze accuracy of different low-dimensional reductions of the collective dynamics in large populations of coupled phase oscillators with intrinsic noise. Three approximations are considered: (i) the Ott-Antonsen ansatz, (ii) the Gaussian ansatz, and (iii) a two-cumulant truncation of the circular cumulant representation of the original system's dynamics. For the latter we suggest a closure, which makes the truncation, for small noise, a rigorous first-order correction to the Ott-Antonsen ansatz, and simultaneously is a generalization of the Gaussian ansatz. The Kuramoto model with intrinsic noise, and the population of identical noisy active rotators in excitable states with the Kuramoto-type coupling, are considered as examples to test validity of these approximations. For all considered cases, the Gaussian ansatz is found to be more accurate than the Ott-Antonsen one for high-synchrony states only. The two-cumulant approximation is always superior to both other approximations.

Dynamics of noisy oscillator populations beyond the Ott-Antonsen ansatz

We develop an approach for the description of the dynamics of large populations of phase oscillators based on "circular cumulants" instead of the Kuramoto-Daido order parameters. In the thermodynamic limit, these variables yield a simple representation of the Ott-Antonsen invariant solution [E. Ott and T. M. Antonsen, CHAOS 18, 037113 (2008)] and appear appropriate for constructing the perturbation theory on top of the Ott-Antonsen ansatz. We employ this approach to study the impact of small intrinsic noise on the dynamics. As a result, a closed system of equations for the two leading cumulants, describing the dynamics of noisy ensembles, is derived. We exemplify the general theory by presenting the effect of noise on the Kuramoto system and on a chimera state in two symmetrically coupled populations.

Resonances and multistability in a Josephson junction connected to a resonator

We study the dynamics of a Josephson junction connected to a dc current supply via a distributed parameter capacitor, which serves as a resonator. We reveal multistability in the current-voltage characteristic of the system; this multistability is related to resonances between the generated frequency and the resonator. The resonant pattern requires detailed consideration, in particular, because its basic features may resemble those of patterns reported in experiments with arrays of Josephson junctions demonstrating coherent stimulated emission. From the viewpoint of nonlinear dynamics, the resonances between a Josephson junction and a resonator are of interest because of specificity of the former; its oscillation frequency is directly governed by control parameters of the system and can vary in a wide range. Our analytical results are in good agreement with the results of numerical simulations.

Synchronization of coupled active rotators by common noise

We study the effect of common noise on coupled active rotators. While such a noise always facilitates synchrony, coupling may be attractive or repulsing. We develop an analytical approach based on a transformation to approximate angle-action variables and averaging over fast rotations. For identical rotators, we describe a transition from full to partial synchrony at a critical value of repulsive coupling. For nonidentical rotators, the most nontrivial effect occurs at moderate repulsive coupling, where a juxtaposition of phase locking with frequency repulsion (anti-entrainment) is observed. We show that the frequency repulsion obeys a nontrivial power law.

Existence of the passage to the limit of inviscid fluid

In the dynamics of viscous fluid, the case of vanishing kinematic viscosity is actually equivalent to the Reynolds number tending to infinity. Hence, in the limit of vanishing viscosity the fluid flow is essentially turbulent. On the other hand, the Euler equation, which is conventionally adopted for description of flow of inviscid fluid, does not possess proper turbulent behaviour. This raises the question of the existence of the passage to the limit of inviscid fluid for real low-viscosity fluids. To address this question, one should employ the theory of turbulent boundary layer near an inflexible boundary (e.g., rigid wall). On the basis of this theory, one can see how the solutions to the Euler equation become relevant for the description of flow of low-viscosity fluids, and obtain the small parameter quantifying accuracy of this description for real fluids.

On thermal diffusion and gauge transformations for thermodynamic fluxes and forces

We discuss the molecular diffusion transport in infinitely dilute liquid solutions under non-isothermal conditions. This discussion is motivated by an occurring misinterpretation of thermodynamic transport equations written in terms of chemical potential in the presence of temperature gradient. The transport equations contain the contributions owned by a gauge transformation related to the fact that chemical potential is determined up to the summand of form (AT+B) with arbitrary constants A and B, where constant A is owned by the entropy invariance with respect to shifts by a constant value and B is owned by the potential energy invariance with respect to shifts by a constant value. The coefficients of the cross-effect terms in thermodynamic fluxes are contributed by this gauge transformation and, generally, are not the actual cross-effect physical transport coefficients. Our treatment is based on consideration of the entropy balance and suggests a promising hint for attempts of evaluation of the thermal diffusion constant from the first principles. We also discuss the impossibility of the "barodiffusion" for dilute solutions, understood in a sense of diffusion flux driven by the pressure gradient itself. When one speaks of "barodiffusion" terms in literature, these terms typically represent the drift in external potential force field (e.g., electric or gravitational fields), where in the final equations the specific force on molecules is substituted with an expression with the hydrostatic pressure gradient this external force field produces. Obviously, the interpretation of the latter as barodiffusion is fragile and may hinder the accounting for the diffusion fluxes produced by the pressure gradient itself.

Specific interface area in a thin layer system of two immiscible liquids with vapour generation at the contact interface

For well-stirred multiphase fluid systems the mean interface area per unit volume, or "specific interface area" $S_V$, is a significant characteristic of the system state. In particular, it is important for the dynamics of systems of immiscible liquids experiencing interfacial boiling. We estimate the value of parameter $S_V$ as a function of the heat influx $\dot{Q}_V$ to the system or the average system overheat $\langleΘ\rangle$ above the interfacial boiling point. The derived results can be reformulated for the case of an endothermic chemical reaction between two liquid reagents with the gaseous form of one of the reaction products. The final results are restricted to the case of thin layers, where the potential gravitational energy of bubbles leaving the contact interface is small compared to their surface tension energy.

Specific interface area and self-stirring in a two-liquid system experiencing intense interfacial boiling below the bulk boiling temperatures of both components

We present an approach to theoretical assessment of the mean specific interface area $(δ{S}/δ{V})$ for a well-stirred system of two immiscible liquids experiencing interfacial boiling. The assessment is based on the balance of transformations of mechanical energy and the laws of the momentum and heat transfer in the turbulent boundary layer. The theory yields relations between the specific interface area and the characteristics of the system state. In particular, this allows us to derive the equations of self-cooling dynamics of the system in the absence of external heat supply. The results provide possibility for constructing a self-contained mathematical description of the process of interfacial boiling. In this study, we assume the volume fractions of two components to be similar as well as the values of their kinematic viscosity and molecular heat diffusivity.

Interplay of coupling and common noise at the transition to synchrony in oscillator populations

We consider a population of globally coupled oscillators driven by common noise. By applying the Ott-Antonsen ansatz and by averaging over the fast oscillations, we obtain analytically tractable equations for the noisy evolution of the order parameter. While noise always tends to synchronize the oscillators, the coupling can act against synchrony if it is repulsive. For identical oscillators, the fully synchronous state remains stable for small enough repulsive coupling; moreover it is an absorbing state which always wins over the asynchronous regime. For oscillators with a distribution of natural frequencies, we report on a counter-intuitive effect of dispersion of the oscillators frequencies at synchrony.

Formation of bubbly horizon in liquid-saturated porous medium by surface temperature oscillation

We study non-isothermal diffusion transport of a weakly-soluble substance in a liquid-saturated porous medium being in contact with the reservoir of this substance. The surface temperature of the porous medium half-space oscillates in time, which results in a decaying solubility wave propagating deep into the porous medium. In such a system, the zones of saturated solution and non-dissolved phase coexist with the zones of undersaturated solution. The effect is firstly considered for the case of annual oscillation of the surface temperature of water-saturated ground being in contact with atmosphere. We reveal the phenomenon of formation of a near-surface bubbly horizon due to the temperature oscillation. An analytical theory of the phenomenon is developed. Further, the treatment is extended to the case of higher frequency oscillations and case of weakly-soluble solids and liquids.

On Boiling of Crude Oil under Elevated Pressure

We construct a thermodynamic model for theoretical calculation of the boiling process of multicomponent mixtures of hydrocarbons (e.g., crude oil). The model governs kinetics of the mixture composition in the course of the distillation process along with the boiling temperature increase. The model heavily relies on the theory of dilute solutions of gases in liquids. Importantly, our results are applicable for modelling the process under elevated pressure (while the empiric models for oil cracking are not scalable to the case of extreme pressure), such as in an oil field heated by lava intrusions.

Coherence of Noisy Oscillators with Delayed Feedback Inducing Multistability

For self-sustained oscillators subject to noise the coherence, understood as a constancy of the instantaneous oscillation frequency, is one of the primary characteristics. The delayed feedback has been previously revealed to be an efficient tool for controlling coherence of noise-driven self-sustained oscillator. The effect of the delayed feedback control on coherence is stronger for a longer delay time. Meanwhile, the instantaneous frequency of a noise-free oscillator can exhibit multistability for long delay time. The impact of the delay-feedback--induced multistability on the oscillation coherence, measured by the phase diffusion constant, of a noisy oscillator is studied in this work both numerically and analytically.

Running interfacial waves in two-layer fluid system subject to longitudinal vibrations

We study the waves at the interface between two thin horizontal layers of immiscible fluids subject to high-frequency horizontal vibrations. Previously, the variational principle for energy functional, which can be adopted for treatment of quasi-stationary states of free interface in fluid dynamical systems subject to vibrations, revealed existence of standing periodic waves and solitons in this system. However, this approach does not provide regular means for dealing with evolutionary problems: neither stability problems nor ones associated with propagating waves. In this work, we rigorously derive the evolution equations for long waves in the system, which turn out to be identical to the "plus" (or "good") Boussinesq equation. With these equations one can find all time-independent-profile solitary waves (standing solitons are a specific case of these propagating waves), which exist below the linear instability threshold; the standing and slow solitons are always unstable while fast solitons are stable. Depending on initial perturbations, unstable solitons either grow in an explosive manner, which means layer rupture in a finite time, or falls apart into stable solitons. The results are derived within the long-wave approximation as the linear stability analysis for the flat-interface state [D.V. Lyubimov, A.A. Cherepanov, Fluid Dynamics, vol. 21, 849-854 (1987)] reveals the instabilities of thin layers to be long-wavelength.

Magnetic Flux Leakage Method: Large-Scale Approximation

We consider the application of the magnetic flux leakage (MFL) method to the detection of defects in ferromagnetic (steel) tubulars. The problem setup corresponds to the cases where the distance from the casing and the point where the magnetic field is measured is small compared to the curvature radius of the undamaged casing and the scale of inhomogeneity of the magnetic field in the defect-free case. Mathematically this corresponds to the planar ferromagnetic layer in a uniform magnetic field oriented along this layer. Defects in the layer surface result in a strong deformation of the magnetic field, which provides opportunities for the reconstruction of the surface profile from measurements of the magnetic field. We deal with large-scale defects whose depth is small compared to their longitudinal sizes---these being typical of corrosive damage. Within the framework of large-scale approximation, analytical relations between the casing thickness profile and the measured magnetic field can be derived.
