This chapter reviews spatially localized modes emerging in nonlinear discrete dynamical
systems, which are called intrinsic localized modes. After the notion of intrinsic localized …

In this experimental study of the nonlinear loss mechanism between traveling localized
excitation and the underlying extended normal mode spectrum for a 1D lattice, three types of …

A well-known feature of a propagating localized excitation in a discrete lattice is the
generation of a backwave in the extended normal mode spectrum. To quantify the parameter …

A method to manipulate intrinsic localized mode (ILM) is numerically discussed in a
nonlinear coupled oscillator array, which is obtained by modeling a microcantilever array …

The behavior of intrinsic localized modes (ILMs) is investigated for an array with N pendula
which are connected with each other by weak, linear springs when the array is subjected to …

Nonlinearities in arrays of discrete oscillators can cause energy localizations called intrinsic
localized modes (ILMs). Two spatial physical manifestations of localization within the array …

In this study, the parametric resonances of pinned intrinsic localized modes (ILMs) were
investigated by computing the unstable regions in parameter space consisting of parametric …

Shift manipulation of intrinsic localized mode (ILM) is numerically discussed in an ac driven
Klein Gordon lattice. Before the manipulation, we introduce the 2-degree of freedom …

A special vibration mode called intrinsic localized mode (ILM) in a dispersed multi mass
point-nonlinear spring system has been actively studied in solid-state physics and has a …

In this article, the existence, stability and bifurcation structure of time-periodic solutions
(including ones that also have the property of spatial localization, ie, breathers) are studied …
