Abstract:
This paper is an initial exploration of synchronizing a frequency-weighted network of Kuramoto oscillators, where the oscillators are asymmetrically coupled with the weights depending on their corresponding native frequencies. We find that with different categories of weighted couplings influenced by the native frequency distribution of the oscillators, one observes synchronous, asynchronous, and oscillatory phenomena, and the so-called chimera states, where the weighting exponent β plays an important role.

RLC Circuit as a Damped Oscillator
Consider a series RLC circuit. Here, the presence of resistance in the circuit leads to energy loss due to joule heating in the resistance. Therefore, the total electromagnetic energy in the circuit is no longer constant and decreases with time. Since the magnitude of charge, current, and potential difference continuously decreases, their oscillations are said to be damped. This is...
