The dynamics of three-wave parametric coupling is considered on an example of nonequilibrium magnetostrictive medium under electromagnetic pumping. Subthreshold and supercritical mode of three-wave excitation are described analytically and simulated numerically for a triad of magnetoelastic waves. Theoretical analysis of the supercritical mode shows that space-time development of three-wave excitation in such a nonequilibrium system has the character of explosive instability and localization of “positive energy” waves.
