Abstract:
A class of adaptation functions is found for which a synchronous mode with different number of phase clusters exists in a network of phase oscillators with triadic couplings. This mode is implemented in a fairly wide range of initial conditions and the maximum number of phase clusters is four. The joint influence of coupling strength and adaptation parameters on synchronization in the network has been studied. The desynchronization transition under variation of the adaptation parameter occurs abruptly and begins with the highest-frequency oscillator, spreading hierarchically to all other elements.

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...
