一类平面自治非线性时滞控制系统的多稳态和混沌

众所周知,平面自治系统即使具有光滑非线性存在,系统也不会出现复杂的动力学行为。本文研究这样的系统存在时滞时,时滞量对系统的动力学行为的影响。通过对一个平面自治非线性系统引入时滞反馈,得到数学模型。利用泛函分析和平均法建立系统平衡态随时滞量变化的失稳机理,研究表明：时滞量平面自治系统动力学行为的影响是本质的．时滞量不但可以使系统出现Hopf分岔,产生周期振动。而且还可以使系统出现多稳态的周期运动或周期吸引子,这些共存的吸引子相碰是导致系统复杂的动力学行为,包括概周期和混沌运动。

多种非线性力作用下不平衡弹性转子的分岔特性

研究了4自由度不平衡弹性转子在非线性油膜力、非线性内阻力和非线性弹性力联合作用下的动力学特性。结果表明，当只有非线性油膜力作用时，转子只存在由于油膜失稳而导致的倍周期分岔。而当非线性油膜力与非线性内阻力共同作用时，在油膜失稳后，转子产生低频振动。转速继续增加，还会诱发内阻失稳，产生概周期运动。在倍周期分岔中，存在分岔激变现象。本文发现的由于油膜涡动而导致的内阻失稳(概周期运动)是一种未见报道的转子失稳模式(组合失稳)，它与油膜失稳(倍周期运动)一起可作为转子故障诊断的典型失稳模式。     

Stability, bifurcation and chaos of a delayed oscillator with negative damping and delayed feedback control

This paper presents a detailed analysis on the dynamics of a delayed oscillator with negative damping and delayed feedback control. Firstly, a linear stability analysis for the trivial equilibrium is given. Then, the direction of Hopf bifurcation and stability of periodic solutions bifurcating from trivial equilibrium are determined by using the normal form theory and center manifold theorem. It shows that with properly chosen delay and gain in the delayed feedback path, this controlled delayed system may have stable equilibrium, or periodic solutions, or quasi-periodic solutions, or coexisting stable solutions. In addition, the controlled system may exhibit period-doubling bifurcation which eventually leads to chaos. Finally, some new interesting phenomena, such as the coexistence of periodic orbits and chaotic attractors, have been observed. The results indicate that delayed feedback control can make systems with state delay produce more complicated dynamics.     

Dynamical analysis of axially moving plate by finite difference method

The complex natural frequencies for linear free vibrations and bifurcation and chaos for forced nonlinear vibration of axially moving viscoelastic plate are investigated in this paper. The governing partial differential equation of out-of-plane motion of the plate is derived by Newton’s second law. The finite difference method in spatial field is applied to the differential equation to study the instability due to flutter and divergence. The finite difference method in both spatial and temporal field is used in the analysis of a nonlinear partial differential equation to detect bifurcations and chaos of a nonlinear forced vibration of the system. Numerical results show that, with the increasing axially moving speed, the increasing excitation amplitude, and the decreasing viscosity coefficient, the equilibrium loses its stability and bifurcates into periodic motion, and then the periodic motion becomes chaotic motion by period-doubling bifurcation.     

Effects of time delayed velocity feedbacks on self-sustained oscillator with excitation

Both the primary resonant solutions and their bifurcations due to time delayed velocity feedbacks used in a self-sustained oscillator with excitation were further investigated. A model was proposed by adding linear and nonlinear time delayed feedbacks to a representative non- autonomous system ( with external forcing ). The stability condition of the linearized system at trivial equilibrium was discussed, which leads to a critical stability boundary where periodic solutions may occur. The main attention was focused on bifurcations from the primary resonant solutions. It is found that the stable primary resonant solution may appear periodically in the time delay. Meanwhile, the unstable regions for such solutions are also obtained, predicting the occurrence of quasi-periodic motions.     

Effects of small world connection on the dynamics of a delayed ring network

This paper presents a detailed analysis on the dynamics of a ring network with small world connection. On the basis of Lyapunov stability approach, the asymptotic stability of the trivial equilibrium is first investigated and the delay-dependent criteria ensuring global stability are obtained. The existence of Hopf bifurcation and the stability of periodic solutions bifurcating from the trivial equilibrium are then analyzed. Further studies are paid to the effects of small world connection on the stability interval and the stability of periodic solution. In particular, some complex dynamical phenomena due to short-cut strength are observed numerically, such as: period-doubling bifurcation and torus breaking to chaos, the coexistence of multiple periodic solutions, multiple quasi-periodic solutions, and multiple chaotic attractors. The studies show that small world connection may be used as a simple but efficient “switch” to control the dynamics of a system.     

Periodic and chaotic dynamics of a sliding driven oscillator with dry friction

We have performed a numerical study of the dynamics of a harmonically forced sliding oscillator with two degrees of freedom and dry friction. The study of the four-dimensional dynamical system corresponding to the two non-linear motion equations can be reduced, in this case, to the study of a three-dimensional Poincaré map. The behaviour of the system has been investigated calculating bifurcation diagrams, time series, periodic and chaotic attractors and basins of attraction. Furthermore, a systematic study of the stability of periodic solutions and their bifurcations has been carried out applying the Floquet theory. The results show rich dynamics being very sensitive to the changes in forcing amplitudes (control parameter), where periodic and chaotic states alternatively appear. It is shown how the system exhibits different types of bifurcational phenomena (saddle-node, symmetry-breaking, period-doubling cascades and intermittent transitions to chaos) into relatively narrow intervals of the control parameter. Moreover, a collection of chaotic attractors was computed to show the evolution of the chaotic regime. Finally, basins of attraction were calculated. In all the cases studied, the basins exhibit fractal structure boundaries and, when more of two attractors are coexisting, we have found Wada basin boundaries.     

RESEARCH IN STABILITY OF PERIODIC MOTION,BIFURCATION AND CHAOS IN A VIBRATORY SYSTEM WITH A CLEARANCE

A two-degrees-of-freedom vibratory system with a clearance or gap is under consideration based on the Poincard map. Stability and local bifurcation of the period-one doubleimpact symmetrical motion of the system are analyzed by using the equation of map. The routes from periodic impact motions to chaos, via pitchfork bifurcation, period-doubling bifurcation and grazing bifurcation, are studied by numerical simulation. Under suitable system parameter conditions, Neimark-Sacker bifurcations associated with periodic impact motion can occur in the two-degrees-of-freedom vibro-impact system.     

Bifurcation and route-to-chaos analyses for Mathieu–Duffing oscillator by the incremental harmonic balance method

Bifurcations and route to chaos of the Mathieu–Duffing oscillator are investigated by the incremental harmonic balance (IHB) procedure. A new scheme for selecting the initial value conditions is presented for predicting the higher order periodic solutions. A series of period-doubling bifurcation points and the threshold value of the control parameter at the onset of chaos can be calculated by the present procedure. A sequence of period-doubling bifurcation points of the oscillator are identified and found to obey the universal scale law approximately. The bifurcation diagram and phase portraits obtained by the IHB method are presented to confirm the period-doubling route-to-chaos qualitatively. It can also be noted that the phase portraits and bifurcation points agree well with those obtained by numerical time-integration.     

Bifurcation and chaos of a delayed predator-prey model with dormancy of predators

In this paper, a delayed predator-prey model with dormancy of predators is investigated. It shows that time delay in the prey-species growth can lead to the occurrence of Hopf bifurcation with stability switches at a coexistence equilibrium. The computing formulas of stability and direction of the Hopf bifurcating periodic solutions are given. Under appropriate conditions, the uniform persistence of this model with time delay is proved. In this simple model, multiple periodic solutions coexist. Through numerical simulation, it is shown that different values of time delay can generate or eliminate chaos. Biologically, our results imply that dynamical behaviors of this system with time delay strongly depend on the initial density of this model and the time delay of the growth of the prey.     

A Nonlinear Temporal Headway Model of Traffic Dynamics

In order to describe the dynamics of a group of road vehicles travelling in a single lane, car-following models attempt to mimic the interactions between individual vehicles where the behaviour of each vehicle is dependent upon the motion of the vehicle immediately ahead. In this paper we investigate a modified car-following model which features a new nonlinear term which attempts to adjust the inter-vehicle spacing to a certain desired value. In contrast to our earlier work, a desired time separation between vehicles is used rather than simply being a constant desired distance. In addition, we extend our previous work to include a non-zero driver vehicle reaction time, thus producing a more realistic mathematical model of congested road traffic. Numerical solution of the resulting coupled system of nonlinear delay differential equations is used to analyse the stability of the equilibrium solution to a periodic perturbation. For certain parameter values the post-transient response is a chaotic (non-periodic) oscillations consisting of a broad spectrum of frequency components. Such chaotic motion leads to highly complex dynamical behaviour which is inherently unpredictable. The model is analysed over a range of parameter values and, in each case, the nature of the response is indicated. In the case of a chaotic solution, the degree of chaos is estimated.
