Abstract:
This study investigates the emergence of extreme events in two different coupled systems: the FitzHugh-Nagumo neuron model and the forced Liénard system, both based on time-varying interactions. The time-varying coupling function between the systems determines the duration and frequency of their interaction. Extreme events in the coupled system arise as a result of the influence of time-varying interactions within various parameter regions. We specifically focus on elucidating how the transition point between extreme events and regular events shifts in response to the duration of interaction time between the systems. By selecting the appropriate interaction time, we can effectively mitigate extreme events, which is highly advantageous for controlling undesired fluctuations in engineering applications. Furthermore, we extend our investigation to networks of oscillators, where the interactions among network elements are also time dependent. The proposed approach for coupled systems holds wide applicability to oscillator networks.

02:55Temperature Dependence on Reaction Rate
Atoms, molecules, or ions must collide before they can react with each other. Atoms must be close together to form chemical bonds. This premise is the basis for a theory that explains many observations regarding chemical kinetics, including factors affecting reaction rates.
The collision theory is based on the postulates that (i) the reaction rate is proportional to the rate of reactant collisions, (ii) the reacting species collide in an orientation allowing contact between...
01:19Cyclic Processes And Isolated Systems
In the case of a non-isolated system, the change in the internal energy is zero only if the process is cyclic. A thermodynamic process is considered cyclic if the system undergoes a series of changes and returns to its initial state.
Consider a cyclic process that returns to its initial state, undergoing a four-step process. The heat transfer along each...
