We investigate the equilibration process of the strongly coupled quartic Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou model by adding Langevin baths to the ends of the chain. The time evolution of the system is investigated by means of extensive numerical simulations and shown to match the results expected from equilibrium statistical mechanics in the time-asymptotic limit. Upon increasing the nonlinear coupling, the thermalization of the energy spectrum displays an increasing asymmetry in favor of small-scale, high-frequency modes, which relax significantly faster than the large-scale, low-frequency ones. The global equilibration time is found to scale linearly with system size and shown to exhibit a power-law decay with the strength of the nonlinearity and temperature. Nonlinear interaction adds to energy distribution among modes, thus speeding up the thermalization process.
