Application of nonsmooth transformations to analyze a vibroimpact duffing system

The forced vibrations of an impact Duffing oscillator with one degree of freedom are studied using Zhuravlev's nonsmooth transformation and the multiple-scales method. Detailed consideration is given to the forced vibrations in the domain of resonance family. The stability and bifurcations of periodic vibrations are analyzed Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 44, No. 10, pp. 114–121, October 2008.     

On the response of a preloaded mechanical oscillator with a clearance: Period-doubling and chaos

The dynamic behavior of a harmonically excited, preloaded mechanical oscillator with dead-zone nonlinearity is described quantiatively. The governing strongly nonlinear differential equation is solved numerically. Damping coefficient-force ratio maps for two different values of the excitation frequency have been formed and the boundaries of the regions of different motion types are determined. The results have been compared with the results of the forced Duffing's equation available in the literature in order to identify the differences between cubic and dead-zone nonlinearities. Period-doubling bifurcations, which take place with a change of any of the system parameters, have been found to be the most common route to chaos. Such bifurcations follow the scaling rule of Feigenbaum. b half length of the clearance.     

Numerical analysis for the periodic response of nonsmooth dynamic systems of high-dimension

This paper deals with the numerical solution of high dimensional dynamic systems with nonsmooth characteristics, such as structural elastoplasticity, mechanical clearance and dry friction. As a stable periodic response of the system attracts its transient response, it may be extracted from the transient response somehow. The paper suggests a novel iteration scheme to extrapolate the periodic response from a short time history of its transient response by curve fitting. Compared with the current schemes such as shooting and incremental harmonic balancing, the present scheme makes full use of the information within the transient response and the system characters, then its computation efficiency has increased by an order and the numerical convergence depending on the initial iteration has greatly improved.The subject supported by the Chinese Foundation of Aeronautical Science

An experimental study of bifurcation,chaos, and dimensionality in a system forced through a bifurcation parameter

An experimental study of a system that is parametrically excited through a bifurcation parameter is presented. The system consits of a lightly-damped, flexible beam which is buckled and unbuckled magnetically: it is parametrically excited by driving an electromagnet with a low-frequency sine wave. For voltage amplitudes in excess of the static bifurcation value, the beam slowly switches between the one-and two-well configurations. Experimental static and dynamic bifurcation results are presented. Static bifurcatons for the system are shown to involve a butterfly catastrophe. The dynamic bifurcation diagram, obtained with an automated data acquisition system, shows several period-doubling sequences, jump phenomena, and a chaotic region. Poincaré sections of a chaotic steady-state are obtained for various values of the driving phase, and the correlation dimension of the chaotic attractor is estimated over a large scaling region. Singular system analysis is used to demonstrate the effect of delay time on the noise level in delay-reconstructions, and to provide an independent check on the dimension estimate by directly estimating the number of independent coordinates from time series data. The correlation dimension is also estimated using the delay-reconstructed data and shown to be in good agrement with the value obtained from the Poincaré sections. The bifurcation and dimension results are used together with physical sonsiderations to derive the general form of a single-degree-of-freedom model for the experimental system.

Cascades of homoclinic orbits to,and chaos near,a Hamiltonian saddle-center

We consider a class of reversible, two-degree of freedom Hamiltonian systems possessing homoclinic orbits to a saddle-center: an equilibrium having two non-zero real and two nonzero imaginary eigenvalues. Under mild nondegeneracy conditions, we construct a two-parameter unfolding and show that there is a countable infinity of secondary homoclinic bifurcations in any neighborhood of the original system. We also demonstrate the existence of families of periodic orbits and of shifts on two symbols (horseshoes). The lack of hyperbolicity and the presence of conserved quantities make the analysis somewhat delicate. We discuss specific examples for which the nondegeneracy conditions can be explicitly checked but indicate that this is not always possible. We illustrate our results with numerical work.     

Non-linear dynamics of a mechanical system with a frictional unilateral constraint

We analyze the dynamics of a two-dimensional system constituted by two masses subjected to elastic, gravitational and viscous forces and constrained by a moving frictional mono-lateral surface. The model exhibits a time-varying dynamics capable of reproducing the hopping phenomenon, an unwanted phenomenon observed in many applications such as the motion of a robotic arm on a surface or that of a wiper on a windscreen. The system dynamics, besides being affected by geometrical non-linearities, has a non-smooth nature due to the impact and friction laws involved in the model. The complexity of the resulting equations and of the transition conditions require the problem to be solved numerically. Various periodic motions are found and the effect of varying the system parameters, in particular the friction coefficient, is investigated. Finally, simulations are used to gain some insight the behavior of the windscreen wiper.
