Here a response of a non-linear oscillator of the Liénard type with a large parameter α ≥ 0 is formulated as a solution of a two-dimensional stochastic differential equation with mean-field of the McKean type. This solution is governed by a special form of the Fokker–Planck equation such as the Smoluchowski–Kramers equation, which is an equation of motion for distribution functions in position and velocity space describing the Brownian motion of particles in an external field. By a change of time and displacement we find that the velocity process converges to a one-dimensional Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process as α →∞.

The oscillator of the Liénard type with mean-field containing a large parameter α < 0 is considered. The solution of the two-dimensional stochastic differential equation with mean-field of the McKean type is taken as the response of the oscillator. By a rigorous evaluation of the upper bound of the displacement process depending on the parameter α, a one-dimensional limit diffusion process as α → ∞is derived and identified. Then our result extends the Smoluchowski–Kramers approximation for the Langevin equation without mean-field to the McKean equation with mean-field.

In the present study, we have derived an expression for transport coefficients such as viscosity, from the equation of motion of dissipative particles. In the concrete, we have shown the Fokker-Planck equation in phase space, and macroscopic conservation equations such as the equation of continuity and the equation of momentum conservation. The basic equations of the single-particle and pair distribution functions have been derived using the Fokker-Planck equation. The solutions of these distribution functions have approximately been solved by the perturbation method under the assumption of molecular chaos. The expression of the viscosity due to dissipative forces has been obtained using the approximate solutions of the distribution functions. Also, we have conducted non-equilibrium dynamics simulations to investigate the influence of the parameters, which have appeared in defining the equation of motion in the dissipative particle dynamics method.

Starting from a master equation for a discrete order parameter a dynamical model is set up via mean-field approximation in the Fokker-Planck equation. The time evolution of some mean values is calculated numerically, showing two transitions with characteristic slowing down of the relaxation time

One dimensional Wiener degradation process is often used to describe the degradation of product performance. However one dimensional Wiener degradation process doesn’t sufficiently consider the relevance of multiple degradation factors and wear process, which lead to inaccurate results. To overcome these problems, a new two dimensional Wiener stochastic degradation model is proposed, which applys to the products on wear process and stochastic degradation process. Combining wear model and two dimensional Wiener stochastic degradation model, a new reliability analytical form is obtained by constructing the Fokker-Planck equation. Then using the relation among wear volume, degradation characteristic lifetime and drift parameter, parameters of two dimensional Wiener degradation model on the basic of wear model can be estimated. Compared with the existing approaches, the proposed method can effectively improve accuracy. Finally, a case study is illustrated the application and advantages of the proposed method.

We determine the boundary of the synchronization domain of a large number of one-dimensional continuous stochastic elements with time delayed nonhomogeneous mean-field coupling. The exact location of the synchronization threshold is shown to be a solution of the boundary value problem (BVP) which was derived from the linearized Fokker–Planck equation. Here the synchronization threshold is found by solving this BVP using the continuation technique (AUTO). Approximate analytics is obtained using expansion into eigenfunctions of the stationary Fokker–Planck operator. Multistability and hysteresis are demonstrated for the case of bistable elements with a polynomial potential.

Electrostatic plasma double layers are numerically simulated by means of a magnetized 2½-dimensional particle-in-cell method, periodic in one direction and bounded by reservoirs of Maxwellian plasma in the other. The investigation of planar double layers indicates that these one-dimensional potential structures are susceptible to periodic disruption by plasma instabilities. A slight increase in the double-layer thickness with an increase in its obliqueness to the magnetic field is observed. It is noted that weak magnetization results in the double-layer electric-field alignment of particles accelerated by these potential structures and that strong magnetization results in their magnetic-field alignment. Electron-beam-excited electrostatic electron cyclotron waves and ion-beam-driven electrostatic turbulence are present in the plasmas adjacent to the double layers. The numerical simulations of spatially periodic two-dimensional double layers also exhibit cyclical instability. A morphological invariance in two-dimensional double layers with respect to the degree of magnetization implies that the potential structures scale with Debye lengths rather than with gyroradii. Ion-beam-driven electrostatic turbulence and electron-beam-driven plasma waves are again detected. A simplified one-dimensional model of oblique plasma double layers, using water-bag velocity distribution functions, is presented in an appendix.

“Dynamical mixing”, i.e. relaxation of a stellar phase space distribution through interaction with the mean gravitational field, is numerically investigated for a one-dimensional self-gravitating stellar gas. Qualitative results are presented in the form of a motion picture of the flow of phase points (representing homogeneous slabs of stars) in two-dimensional phase space.
