Journal ArticleDOI
Observation of topological valley modes in an elastic hexagonal lattice
TL;DR: In this article, the experimental observation of topologically protected edge waves in a two-dimensional elastic hexagonal lattice was reported, where the lattice is designed to feature $K$-point Dirac cones that are well separated from the other numerous elastic wave modes characterizing this continuous structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Amplitude-dependent topological edge states in nonlinear phononic lattices.
TL;DR: The results of this study provide a theoretical framework for the investigation of nonlinear effects that induce and control topologically protected wave modes through nonlinear interactions and amplitude tuning.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Bloch-based procedure for dispersion analysis of lattices with periodic time-varying properties
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a procedure for the systematic estimation of the dispersion properties of linear discrete systems with periodic time-varying coefficients, which relies on the analysis of a single unit cell, making use of Bloch theorem along with the application of a harmonic balance methodology over an imposed solution ansatz.
Journal ArticleDOI
Retroactive interference after discrimination reversal decreases following temporal and physical context changes in human subjects.
TL;DR: Both manipulations, changing the context after the reversal and the passage of time following the reversal, led to a recovery of the original discrimination performance, and participants that received both a context change and retention interval showed the largest recovery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Propagation of solitons in a two-dimensional nonlinear square lattice
TL;DR: In this paper, the existence of solitary waves in a nonlinear square spring-mass lattice was investigated, where the masses interact with their neighbors through linear springs and are connected to the ground by a non-linear spring whose force is expressed as a polynomial function of the masses out-of-plane displacement.
