We revisit the celebrated model of Fermi, Pasta and Ulam
with the aim of investigating, by numerical computations, the trend
towards equipartition in the thermodynamic limit. We concentrate our
attention on a particular class of initial conditions, namely, with
all the energy on the first mode or the first few modes. We observe
that the approach to equipartition occurs on two different time
scales: in a short time the energy spreads up by forming a packet
involving all low--frequency… CONTINUE READING
