Description

It is shown that the autoresonance effect is characteristic of wave interactions in slowly varying weakly nonlinear multidimensional media. The theory of the phenomenon is presented for the mode conversion case and illustrated in two dimensions. It is demonstrated that multidimensional autoresonance is stable with respect to weak damping and transverse nonuniformity of the incident wave. copyright 1995 American Institute of Physics
