Abstract

In a numerical experiment, it is found that at least three localized stationary breather type modes can exist in a chain of Rayleigh oscillators with a nonlinear coupling between them: immobile, “slow,” and “fast” dissipative breathers. The dynamics of synchronous motions of chain elements depends on the relation of characteristic time scales of the system related to the frequency of the oscillators and rigidity of the coupling between them; it is multistable.
