Accurate analytical solutions to nonlinear oscillators by means of the Hamiltonian approach

The purpose of this paper is to apply the Hamiltonian approach to nonlinear oscillators. The Hamiltonian approach is applied to derive highly accurate analytical expressions for periodic solutions or for approximate formulas of frequency. A conservative oscillator always admits a Hamiltonian invariant, H , which stays unchanged during oscillation. This property is used to obtain approximate frequency–amplitude relationship of a nonlinear oscillator with high accuracy. A trial solution is selected with unknown parameters. Next, the Ritz–He method is used to obtain the unknown parameters. This will yield the approximate analytical solution of the nonlinear ordinary differential equations. In contrast with the traditional methods, the proposed method does not require any small parameter in the equation. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Comparison of Energy Balance Period with Exact Period for Arising Nonlinear Oscillator Equations

In this paper, He’s energy balance method is applied to nonlinear oscillators. The new algorithm offers a promising approach by constructing a Hamiltonian for the nonlinear oscillator. We proved that the energy balance is very effective, convenient and does not require any linearization or small perturbation. In contradicts of the conventional methods, He’s Energy Balance method (HEBM) using just one iteration, leads us to high accuracy of solutions. Energy Balance method is very effective, convenient and adequately accurate to both linear and nonlinear problems in physics and engineering.     

A Dissipation-Preserving Integrator for Damped Oscillatory Hamiltonian Systems

In this paper, based on discrete gradient, a dissipation-preserving integrator for weakly dissipative perturbations of oscillatory Hamiltonian system is established. The solution of this system is a damped nonlinear oscillator. Basically, lots of nonlinear oscillatory mechanical systems including frictional forces lend themselves to this approach. The new integrator gives a discrete analogue of the dissipation property of the original system. Meanwhile, since the integrator is based on the variation-of-constants formula for oscillatory systems, it preserves the oscillatory structure of the system. Some properties of the new integrator are derived. The convergence is analyzed for the implicit iterations based on the discrete gradient integrator, and it turns out that the convergence of the implicit iterations based on the new integrator is independent of $\|M\|$, where $M$ governs the main oscillation of the system and usually $\|M\|\gg1$. This significant property shows that a larger stepsize can be chosen for the new schemes than that for the traditional discrete gradient integrators when applied to the oscillatory Hamiltonian system. Numerical experiments are carried out to show the effectiveness and efficiency of the new integrator in comparison with the traditional discrete gradient methods in the scientific literature.     

Exponential averaging for Hamiltonian evolution equations

We derive estimates on the magnitude of non-adiabatic interaction between a Hamiltonian partial differential equation and a high-frequency nonlinear oscillator. Assuming spatial analyticity of the initial conditions, we show that the dynamics can be transformed to the uncoupled dynamics of an infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian system and an anharmonic oscillator, up to coupling terms which are exponentially small in a certain power of the frequency of the oscillator. The result is derived from an abstract averaging theorem for infinite-dimensional analytic evolution equations in Gevrey spaces. Refining upon a similar result by Neishtadt for analytic ordinary differential equations, the temporal estimate crucially depends on the spatial regularity of the initial condition. The result shows to what extent the strong resonances between rapid forcing and highly oscillatory spatial modes can be suppressed by the choice of sufficiently smooth initial data. An application is provided by a system of nonlinear Schrödinger equations, coupled to a rapidly forcing single mode, representing small-scale oscillations. We provide an example showing that the estimates for partial differential equations we derive here are necessarily different from those in the context of ordinary differential equations.

     

The resonance theory for stochastic layers in nonlinear dynamic systems

A theory of stochastic layers is developed for a better understanding of the resonant mechanism of stochastic layers in nonlinear Hamiltonian systems. A criterion based on an accurate whisker map and resonant conditions is developed for prediction of the onset of resonance in the stochastic layer. The onset of a specific primary resonance between the periodic forcing and periodic orbit of the integrable Hamiltonian system in the stochastic layer is predicted analytically. A forced, twin-well Duffing oscillator is investigated as a sample problem for prediction of a specified resonance in the stochastic layer. Verification of the analytical prediction is carried out through a symplectic numerical integration scheme. The analytical and numerical results are in good agreement.     

Nonlinear vibration and instability of functionally graded nanopipes with initial imperfection conveying fluid

In this paper, the nonlinear vibration and instability of a fluid-conveying nanopipe made of functionally graded (FG) materials with consideration of the initial geometric imperfection are investigated. The material properties are assumed to vary smoothly along the radial direction according to a power-law exponent form. The fluid-conveying FG nanopipe is modeled as a Euler-Bernoulli beam, and the governing equation is derived based on the nonlocal strain gradient theory incorporating the effects of Von-Karman geometrical nonlinearity and initial imperfection. The nonlinear frequency and critical fluid velocity are achieved via He's Hamiltonian approach. After verifying the present model with comparison of several previous studies, the effect of several different system parameters including the amplitude of the nonlinear oscillator, the initial geometric imperfection, size-dependent parameters, and the power-law index on the frequency response of the fluid-conveying FG nanopipe are explored. Moreover, the critical velocity of the conveying fluid under different system parameters is also investigated and discussed in detail. The developed size-dependent nonlinear model is expected to provide a possible theoretical way to guide the application of FG nanopipe as micro/nanofluidic devices.     

Decomposition of a hierarchy of nonlinear evolution equations

The generalized Hamiltonian structures for a hierarchy of nonlinear evolution equations are established with the aid of the trace identity. Using the nonlinearization approach, the hierarchy of nonlinear evolution equations is decomposed into a class of new finite-dimensional Hamiltonian systems. The generating function of integrals and their generator are presented, based on which the finite-dimensional Hamiltonian systems are proved to be completely integrable in the Liouville sense. As an application, solutions for the hierarchy of nonlinear evolution equations are reduced to solving the compatible Hamiltonian systems of ordinary differential equations.

Sine‐cosine wavelet method for fractional oscillator equations

Purpose In this article, a novel computational method is introduced for solving the fractional nonlinear oscillator differential equations on the semi‐infinite domain. The purpose of the proposed method is to get better and more accurate results. Design/methodology/approach The proposed method is the combination of the sine‐cosine wavelets and Picard technique. The operational matrices of fractional‐order integration for sine‐cosine wavelets are derived and constructed. Picard technique is used to convert the fractional nonlinear oscillator equations into a sequence of discrete fractional linear differential equations. Operational matrices of sine‐cosine wavelets are utilized to transformed the obtained sequence of discrete equations into the systems of algebraic equations and the solutions of algebraic systems lead to the solution of fractional nonlinear oscillator equations. Findings The convergence and supporting analysis of the method are investigated. The operational matrices contains many zero entries, which lead to the high efficiency of the method, and reasonable accuracy is achieved even with less number of collocation points. Our results are in good agreement with exact solutions and more accurate as compared with homotopy perturbation method, variational iteration method, and Adomian decomposition method. Originality/value Many engineers can utilize the presented method for solving their nonlinear fractional models.

Time reversal for modified oscillators

We consider a new completely integrable case of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation in ®ⁿ with variable coefficients for a modified oscillator that is dual (with respect to time reversal) to a model of the quantum oscillator. We find a second pair of dual Hamiltonians in the momentum representation. The examples considered show that in mathematical physics and quantum mechanics, a change in the time direction may require a total change of the system dynamics to return the system to its original quantum state. We obtain particular solutions of the corresponding nonlinear Schrödinger equations. We also consider a Hamiltonian structure of the classical integrable problem and its quantization.     

Nonlinear vibration of a quarter-car model excited by the road surface profile

We examine the Melnikov criterion for a transition to chaos in case of a single–degree–of–freedom nonlinear oscillator with the Duffing potential with a nonlinear hard stiffness and a kinematic excitation term caused by the road profile. Using the new effective Hamiltonian we have examined appearance of homoclinic orbits in a quarter car model. Cross–sections of stable and unstable manifolds defined the condition of transition to chaos through a homoclinic bifurcation. (© 2008 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Symplectic integration of Hamiltonian wave equations

Summary The numerical integration of a wide class of Hamiltonian partial differential equations by standard symplectic schemes is discussed, with a consistent, Hamiltonian approach. We discretize the Hamiltonian and the Poisson structure separately, then form the the resulting ODE's. The stability, accuracy, and dispersion of different explicit splitting methods are analyzed, and we give the circumstances under which the best results can be obtained; in particular, when the Hamiltonian can be split into linear and nonlinear terms. Many different treatments and examples are compared.     

Iterative homotopy harmonic balancing approach for conservative oscillator with strong odd-nonlinearity

A new approach that the iterative homotopy harmonic balancing is presented for charactering and predicting analytical approximations of conservative oscillator with strong odd-nonlinearity in the paper. The new technique does not depend upon small parameter assumption and incorporates the salient features of both methods of the parameter-expansion and the harmonic balance. The results of applying this procedure to the studied examples that the cubic–quintic Duffing equation and Duffing-harmonic equation show the high accurate, simplicity and efficiency of the approach. The approach can be easily extended to other nonlinear oscillators.     

Multiple periodic solutions for Hamiltonian systems with not coercive potential

Under an appropriate oscillating behavior of the nonlinear term, the existence of infinitely many periodic solutions for a class of second order Hamiltonian systems is established. Moreover, the existence of two non-trivial periodic solutions for Hamiltonian systems with not coercive potential is obtained, and the existence of three periodic solutions for Hamiltonian systems with coercive potential is pointed out. The approach is based on critical point theorems.     

Local chaos induced by spatial oscillations of a perturbation

We study motion of an one-dimensional Hamiltonian oscillator driven by an external force which is periodic in time and in coordinate as well. It is shown that dynamics of the oscillator is strongly affected by the resonance between spatial and temporal oscillations of the perturbation imposed. In particular, this resonance can induce strong but bounded chaotic diffusion in certain areas of phase space. The model of the Duffing oscillator is used as an example for the numerical simulation.     

Integrated circuit generating 3- and 5-scroll attractors

This paper introduces the experimental realization of the first integrated circuit of a multi-scroll continuous chaotic oscillator showing 3- and 5-scroll attractors. It is based on a variant of the Chua’s system. The most relevant issue is the implementation of a saw-tooth-like nonlinear function, which is designed by using floating gate MOS (FGMOS) transistors. Therefore, the realization of a voltage-to-current nonlinear cell by a piecewise-linear approach allows us to have only two external control inputs instead of numerous external voltage references, as usually done in current circuit realizations. Experimental results of the proposed integrated multi-scroll oscillator along with its corner analysis are provided.     

Fractional Hamiltonian Monodromy

We introduce fractional monodromy in order to characterize certain non-isolated critical values of the energy–momentum map of integrable Hamiltonian dynamical systems represented by nonlinear resonant two-dimensional oscillators. We give the formal mathematical definition of fractional monodromy, which is a generalization of the definition of monodromy used by other authors before. We prove that the 1:( − 2) resonant oscillator system has monodromy matrix with half-integer coefficients and discuss manifestations of this monodromy in quantum systems.
