These analyses concern the number of particles within the system and various weak-coupling rates. The outcomes obtained from the generalized mean-field theory are cross-validated against the results derived from Monte Carlo simulations. In scrutinizing the system's dynamics, we observe several noteworthy observations. Notably, we identified critical mixed profiles featuring instances of double shocks.

A careful comparison between the performance of underdamped and overdamped Brownian work-to-work engines has been undertaken. The results show that underdamped Brownian engines generally outperform their overdamped counterparts. A key difference is the presence of a resonant regime in underdamped engines, in which both efficiency and power output are enhanced across a broad set of parameters.

The first model is a one-dimensional chain with bonds, capable of dissociation. Interparticle forces in the chain are harmonic for bond deformations below a critical value, corresponding to the dissociation, and zero above this value. A kinetic description of heat transfer in the chain is proposed using the second model, namely, a gas of noninteracting quasiparticles, reflecting from randomly occurring barriers. The motion of quasiparticles mimicks heat (energy) transfer in the chain, while the barriers mimic dissociated bonds. For the gas, a kinetic equation is derived and solved analytically. The solution demonstrates the transition from the ballistic regime at small times to the diffusive regime at large times. In the diffusive limit, the distance traveled by a heat obeys square-root asymptotics as in the case of classical diffusion. However, the shape of the fundamental solution for temperature differs from the Gaussian function and therefore the Fourier law is not satisfied. Two examples are considered to demonstrate that the presented kinetic model is in good qualitative agreement with the results of the numerical solution of the chain dynamics. The presented results show that bond dissociation is an important mechanism underlying the transition from ballistic to diffusive heat transfer in one-dimensional chains.</p>","PeriodicalId":20085,"journal":{"name":"Physical review.

The dynamical process whereby synchronization is reached can be thought of as a growth process in which an interface formed by the local phase field gradually roughens and eventually saturates. Such a process is here shown to display the generic scale invariance of the one-dimensional Kardar-Parisi-Zhang universality class, including a Tracy-Widom probability distribution for phase fluctuations around their mean. This is revealed by numerical explorations of a variety of oscillator systems: rings of generic phase oscillators and rings of paradigmatic limit-cycle oscillators, like Stuart-Landau and van der Pol. It also agrees with analytical expectations derived under conditions of strong mutual coupling. The nonequilibrium critical behavior that we find is robust and transcends the details of the oscillators considered. Hence, it may well be accessible to experimental ensembles of oscillators in the presence of, e.g., thermal noise.</p>","PeriodicalId":20085,"journal":{"name":"Physical review.
