Zusammenfassung |
We describe an effect of phase-locking
catastrophe arising in an ensemble of a great number of oscillators interacting
by means of their emitting waves. These waves can be either pulsatile, that is,
soliton-like, or continuous stationary waves generated by the oscillators
considered as resonators. Each one of these waves will introduce certain
perturbations among the phases of the oscillators of the ensemble in such a way
that it is possible to follow in time the distribution of these phases. In fact,
we deduce the p.d.e's governing the evolution in time of this distribution,
which displays a tendency of accumulating around certain of its values
(phase-locking), and also of sudden increasing of the intensity of the physical
effect (a "phase transition"). |
