  • Whitham theory and dispersive shock waves (DSWs) for the radial nonlinear Schroedinger (rNLS) equation. Dispersive shock waves of the defocusing rNLS equation in two spatial dimensions are studied. This equation arises naturally in Bose-
  • Experimental Observation of Spin-Wave Fractals A fractal is a shape made of parts each of which is similar to the whole in some way.  One can group fractals into two main categories, (i) exact fractals in which the same feature replicates
  • Whitham modulation theory - developments and open problemsI discuss the development of Whitham modulation theory as a nonlinear WKB method successfully used to describe the behavior of nonlinear dispersive waves. Recent advances include the
  • Generalized dispersion relation predicts harmonic generation in strongly nonlinear systems In recent work, we have derived an exact nonlinear dispersion relation for elastic wave propagation in a thin rod (linearly nondispersive) and a thick
