Abstract:
The present report will emphasize the recent development of the generation of nonpropagating hydrodynamic solitons of Faraday's oscillating water tank experiment first observed by Wu et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 52, 1421 (1984)] in a small rectangular trough (38 × 2.7 × 2 cm3) driven vertically and simple harmonically with a vibrator of fundamental frequency of 10 Hz. It will include: (1) the effect of the geometric al dimension, driving frequency, and amplitude on the stability region, etc. of the solitons, (2) further study on the multisoliton collisions, and (3) the condition and behavior for this solitary system that exhibits bifurcations and chaos, which therefore provide experimental evidence of the relation between these two dominant nonlinear phenomena. Some theoretical models are proposed as well as questions raised by this experimental simplicity. [Work supported by Chinese National Science Foundation.]
