Abstract :
In this study, nonlinear wave phenomena related to reflections and transmissions of the phase-inversion-waves around the discontinuity of the system consisting of two parts of coupled van der Pol oscillators are investigated. Behavior of the phase-inversion-waves around a discontinuity in a coupled system consisting of two kinds of arrays of van der Pol oscillators was classified into 8 types by computer simulations. Further, the mechanisms of the reflection of the phase-inversion-waves at the discontinuity are explained
