Transition from Solitons to Solitary Waves in the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam Lattice

In this paper, we study the smooth transition from solitons to solitary waves in localization, relation between energy and velocity, propagation and scattering property in the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam lattice analytically and numerically. A soliton is a very stable solitary wave that retains its permanent structure after interacting with other solitary waves. A soliton exists when the energy is small, and it becomes a solitary wave when the energy increases to the threshold. The transition could help to understand the distinctly different heat conduction behaviors of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam lattice at low and high temperature.

Mechanical Resonance of embedded cluster

Embedded clusters, which are embedded in bulk materials and different from the surroundings in structures, should be common in materials. This paper studies resonance of such clusters. This work is stimulated by a recent experimental observation that some localized clusters behavior like fluid at the mesoscopic scale in many solid materials [Science in China(Series B). 46, 176 (2003)]. We argue that the phenomenon is just a vivid illustration of resonance of embedded clusters, driven by ubiquitous microwaves. Because the underlying mechanism is fundamental and embedded structures are usual, the phenomenon would have great significance in material physics.
