Chaotic mixing induced transitions in reaction-diffusion systems.
We study the evolution of a localized perturbation in a chemical system with multiple homogeneous steady states, in the presence of stirring by a fluid flow. Two distinct regimes are found as the rate of stirring is varied relative to the rate of the chemical reaction. When the stirring is fast localized perturbations decay towards a spatially homogeneous state. When the stirring is slow (or fa...
متن کاملMicroswimmer-induced chaotic mixing
Efficient mixing, typically characterized by chaotic advection, is hard to achieve in low Reynolds number conditions because of the linear nature of the Stokes equation that governs the motion. Here we show that low-Reynolds-number swimmers moving on quasi-periodic orbits can result in considerable stretching and folding of fluid elements. We accurately follow packets of tracers within the flui...
متن کاملChaotic mixing in noisy Hamiltonian systems
This paper summarises an investigation of the effects of low amplitude noise and periodic driving on phase space transport in three-dimensional Hamiltonian systems, a problem directly applicable to systems like galaxies, where such perturbations reflect internal irregularities and/or a surrounding environment. A new diagnostic tool is exploited to quantify the extent to which, over long times, ...
متن کاملImage authentication using chaotic mixing systems
A novel method for image authentication is proposed. A watermark signal is embedded in a grayscale or a color host image. The watermark key controls a set of parameters of a chaotic system used for the watermark generation. The use of chaotic mixing increases the security of the proposed method and provides the additional feature of imperceptible encryption of the image owner logo in the host i...
متن کاملTransitions to Bubbling of Chaotic Systems.
Certain dynamical systems exhibit a phenomenon called bubbling, whereby small perturbations induce intermittent bursting. In this Letter we show that, as a parameter is varied through a critical value, the transition to bubbling can be “hard” (the bursts appear abruptly with large amplitude) or “soft” (the maximum burst amplitude increases continuously from zero), and that the presence or absen...
