Exact solutions for discrete breathers in forced-damped chain    [PDF]

O. V. Gendelman
Exact solutions for symmetric discrete breathers (DBs) are obtained in forced-damped linear chain with on-site vibro-impact constraints. The damping is related to inelastic impacts; the forcing may be chosen from broad class of periodic antisymmetric functions. Global conditions for existence and stability of the DB are established. Some unusual phenomena, like non-monotonous dependence of the stability boundary on the forcing amplitude, are revealed analytically for the full system and illustrated numerically for small periodic lattices.
