One-dimensional chains are used as a fundamental model of condensed matter, and have
constituted the starting point for key developments in nonlinear physics and complex …

Energy transfer in small nano-sized systems can be very different from that in their
macroscopic counterparts due to reduced dimensionality, interaction with surfaces, disorder …

Recent results on theoretical studies of heat conduction in low-dimensional systems are
presented. These studies are on simple, yet non-trivial, models. Most of these are classical …

The behavior of classical and quantum many-particle systems out of equilibrium is among
the most prominent problems in modern statistical-mechanics. Besides its own interest for …

We investigate the effect of strain and isotopic disorder on thermal transport in suspended
graphene by equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations. We show that the thermal …

An introduction to polymers and their thermal conductivity is provided, with particular
attention paid to recent work that has highlighted the potential to make high thermal …

We investigate the heat conduction properties of molecular junctions comprising nonlinear
interactions. We find that these interactions can lead to phenomena such as negative …

With this Focus Issue, Chaos commemorates the 50th anniversary of the May 1955
publication of the Los Alamos report (LA-1940:“Studies of Nonlinear Problems: I”) …

We elucidate the dependence of the in-plane and interfacial thermal conduction of two-
dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) materials (including Mo S 2, WS …

Energy transport in one-dimensional chains of particles with three conservation laws is
generically anomalous and belongs to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang dynamical universality class …
