Abstract
This paper proposes two approaches to the analysis of the different behaviours emerging in arrays of coupled nonlinear oscillators, according to their different parameters of structure, coupling, stiffness or distribution. The first approach is a theoretical analysis of the dynamics of such arrays of coupled nonlinear oscillators, based on a recent tool: Contraction Theory. In the second approach, numerical techniques are employed, for such large arrays, to validate conditions for synchronisation of the system, according to its different parameters, as predicted by the theoretical analysis.
