This behavior of coupled oscillators -- long a fascination of physicists and mathematicians -- also can help biologists seeking to understand such questions as why some locations overflow with ...

Heugel, Oscity and their colleagues explore what happens as several such oscillators are coupled together. In calculations as well as in experiments using two strings with variable coupling ...

A variable-speed motor drives a set of identical oscillators coupled by identical springs. The masses rest on an air track for low-friction movement. Several normal modes of this 1D lattice can be ...

The technique is based on coupled 'chaotic oscillators,' which are highly sensitive electronic circuits that can interact wirelessly through low-frequency low-power electromagnetic coupling.

It was not until the mid-20 th century, however, that a Russian mathematician, Vladimir Arnold, discovered that plotting certain parameters of such coupled oscillating systems produces a series of ...
