Three types of nonlinear resonances
We analyse different types of nonlinear resonances in a weakly damped Duffing oscillator using bifurcation theory techniques.

The Noisy Oscillator : Random Mass and Random Damping
The problem of a linear damped noisy oscillator is treated in the presence of two multiplicative sources of noise which imply a random mass and random damping. The additive noise and the noise in the damping are responsible for an influx of energy to the oscillator and its dissipation to the surrounding environment. A ...

Damping of gravitational waves in 2-2-holes
A 2-2-hole is an explicit realization of a horizonless object that can still very closely resemble a BH. An ordinary relativistic gas can serve as the matter source for the 2-2-hole solution of quadratic gravity, and this leads to a calculable area-law entropy. Here we show that it also leads to an estimate of the damp...

Plasmon damping in electronically open systems
Rapid progress in electrically-controlled plasmonics in solids poses a question about effects of electronic reservoirs on the properties of plasmons. We find that plasmons in electronically open systems [i.e. in (semi)conductors connected to leads] are prone to an additional damping due to charge carrier penetration in...

Helical damping and anomalous critical non-Hermitian skin effect
Non-Hermitian skin effect and critical skin effect are unique features of non-Hermitian systems. In this Letter, we study an open system with its dynamics of single-particle correlation function effectively dominated by a non-Hermitian damping matrix, which exhibits $\mathbb{Z}_2$ skin effect, and uncover the existence...

Gravitational Landau Damping for massive scalar modes
We establish the possibility of Landau damping for gravitational scalar waves which propagate in a non-collisional gas of particles. In particular, under the hypothesis of homogeneity and isotropy, we describe the medium at the equilibrium with a J\"uttner-Maxwell distribution, and we analytically determine the damping...

Bulk Viscous Damping of Density Oscillations in Neutron Star Mergers
In this paper, we discuss the damping of density oscillations in dense nuclear matter in the temperature range relevant to neutron star mergers. This damping is due to bulk viscosity arising from the weak interaction ``Urca'' processes of neutron decay and electron capture. The nuclear matter is modelled in the relativ...

Exact solutions of a damped harmonic oscillator in a time dependent noncommutative space
In this paper we have obtained the exact eigenstates of a two dimensional damped harmonic oscillator in time dependent noncommutative space.

Enhancing nonlinear damping by parametric-direct internal resonance
Mechanical sources of nonlinear damping play a central role in modern physics, from solid-state physics to thermodynamics. The microscopic theory of mechanical dissipation [M. I . Dykman, M. A. Krivoglaz, Physica Status Solidi (b) 68, 111 (1975)] suggests that nonlinear damping of a resonant mode can be strongly enhanc...

Blow-up for wave equation with the scale-invariant damping and combined nonlinearities
In this article, we study the blow-up of the damped wave equation in the \textit{scale-invariant case} and in the presence of two nonlinearities. More precisely, we consider the following equation: $$u_{tt}-\Delta u+\frac{\mu}{1+t}u_t=|u_t|^p+|u|^q, \quad \mbox{in}\ \R^N\times[0,\infty), $$ with small initial data.\\ F...

Decentralized Frequency Control using Packet-based Energy Coordination
This paper presents a novel frequency-responsive control scheme for demand-side resources, such as electric water heaters. A frequency-dependent control law is designed to provide damping from distributed energy resources (DERs) in a fully decentralized fashion. This local control policy represents a frequency-dependen...

Origin of micron-scale propagation lengths of heat-carrying acoustic excitations in amorphous silicon
The heat-carrying acoustic excitations of amorphous silicon are of interest because their mean free paths may approach micron scales at room temperature. Despite extensive investigation, the origin of the weak acoustic damping in the heat-carrying frequencies remains a topic of debate. Here, we report measurements of t...

Quantum sensing of open systems: Estimation of damping constants and temperature
We determine quantum precision limits for estimation of damping constants and temperature of lossy bosonic channels. A direct application would be the use of light for estimation of the absorption and the temperature of a transparent slab. Analytic lower bounds are obtained for the uncertainty in the estimation, throug...

Quantifying the evidence for resonant damping of coronal waves with foot-point wave power asymmetry
We use Coronal Multi-channel Polarimeter (CoMP) observations of propagating waves in the solar corona and Bayesian analysis to assess the evidence of models with resonant damping and foot-point wave power asymmetries. Two nested models are considered. The reduced model considers resonant damping as the sole cause of th...

Switchable Damping for a One-Particle Oscillator
The possibility to switch the damping rate for a one-electron oscillator is demonstrated, for an electron that oscillates along the magnetic field axis in a Penning trap. Strong axial damping can be switched on to allow this oscillation to be used for quantum nondemolition detection of the cyclotron and spin quantum st...

Challenging an experimental nonlinear modal analysis method with a new strongly friction-damped structure
In this work, we show that a recently proposed method for experimental nonlinear modal analysis based on the extended periodic motion concept is well suited to extract modal properties for strongly nonlinear systems (i.e. in the presence of large frequency shifts, high and nonlinear damping, changes of the mode shape, ...

We present a generic mechanism for the thermal damping of compressive waves in the interstellar medium (ISM), occurring due to radiative cooling. We solve for the dispersion relation of magnetosonic waves in a two-fluid (ion-neutral) system in which density- and temperature-dependent heating and cooling mechanisms are ...

In this paper, a novel model-free wide-area damping control (WADC) method is proposed, which can achieve full decoupling of modes and damp multiple critical inter-area oscillations simultaneously using grid-connected voltage source converters (VSCs). The proposed method is purely measurement based and requires no knowl...

Fast optimization of viscosities for frequency-weighted damping of second-order systems
We consider frequency-weighted damping optimization for vibrating systems described by a second-order differential equation. The goal is to determine viscosity values such that eigenvalues are kept away from certain undesirable areas on the imaginary axis. To this end, we present two complementary techniques. First, we...

Slow periodic oscillation without radiation damping: New evolution laws for rate and state friction
The dynamics of sliding friction is mainly governed by the frictional force. Previous studies have shown that the laboratory-scale friction is well described by an empirical law stated in terms of the slip velocity and the state variable. The state variable represents the detailed physicochemical state of the sliding i...

Absence of a boson peak in anharmonic phonon models with Akhiezer-type damping
In a recent article M. Baggioli and A. Zaccone (Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 112}, 145501 (2019)) claimed that an anharmonic damping, leading to a sound attenuation proportional to $\omega^2$ (Akhiezer-type damping) would imply a boson peak, i.e.\ a maximum in the vibrational density of states, divided by the frequency square...

Damping and polarization rates in near equilibrium state
The collision terms in spin transport theory are analyzed in Kadanoff-Baym formalism for systems close to equilibrium. The non-equilibrium fluctuations in spin distribution include both damping and polarization, with the latter arising from the exchange between orbital and spin angular momenta. The damping and polariza...

We find that fluctuations in these parameters manifest themselves distinctively, allowing them to be distinguished. In the strongly nonlinear regime, amplitude and ph...
