Chaotic vibration analysis of rotating,flexible, continuous shaft-disk system with a rub-impact between the disk and the stator

The chaotic vibration analysis of a rotating flexible continuous shaft-disk system with rub-impact is studied. The system is modeled as a continuous shaft with a rigid disk in its mid-section with Coriolis and centrifugal effects included. The governing partial differential equations of motion are extracted based on the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory. The assumed modes method is used to discretize partial differential equations and the resulting equations are solved via numerical methods. Time series, phase plane portrait, power spectra, Poincaré map, bifurcation diagrams, and Lyapunov exponents are used to analyze the vibration behavior of the system. Initially, the case is investigated in which no Coriolis or centrifugal effects are considered. Then, another case is studied in which these effects are considered. The results confirm the claim that the rub-impact occurs at lower speed ratios due to the Coriolis and centrifugal forcing effects, and that the dynamic behaviors of the system for the two cases are much different as a result of the rub-impact in the second case. Periodic, quasi-periodic, sub-harmonic, and chaotic states can be observed while the appearance or disappearance of the chaos is different. The centrifugal forcing effect plays a greater role than that of the Coriolis force on the incidence of the rub-impact. These results can be useful in identifying the undesirable behaviors in these types of rotating systems.     

Nonlinear vibration phenomenon of an aircraft rub-impact rotor system due to hovering flight

This paper focuses on the nonlinear vibration phenomenon caused by aircraft hovering flight in a rub-impact rotor system supported by two general supports with cubic stiffness. The effect of aircraft hovering flight on the rotor system is considered as a maneuver load to formulate the equations of motion, which might result in periodic response instability to the rotor system even the eccentricity is small. The dynamic responses of the system under maneuver load are presented by bifurcation diagrams and the corresponding Lyapunov exponent spectrums. Numerical analyses are carried out to detect the periodic, sub-harmonic and quasi-periodic motions of the system, which are presented by orbit diagrams, phase trajectories, Poincare maps and amplitude power spectrums. The results obtained in this paper will contribute an understanding of the nonlinear dynamic behaviors of aircraft rotor systems in maneuvering flight.     

Bifurcations and synchronization of the fractional-order simplified Lorenz hyperchaotic systems

In this paper, dynamics of the fractional-order simplied Lorenz hyperchaotic system is investigated. Modied Adams-Bashforth-Moulton method is applied for numerical simulation. Chaotic regions and periodic windows are identied. Dierent types of motions are shown along the routes to chaos by means of phase portraits, bifurcation diagrams, and the largest Lyapunov exponent. The lowest fractional order to generate chaos is 3.8584. Synchronization between two fractional-order simplied Lorenz hyperchaotic systems is achieved by using active control method. The synchronization performances are studied by changing the fractional order, eigenvalues and eigenvalue standard deviation of the error system.

Couple stress fluid improve rub-impact rotor-bearing system – Nonlinear dynamic analysis

This study performs a dynamic analysis of the rub-impact rotor supported by two couple stress fluid film journal bearings. The strong nonlinear couple stress fluid film force, nonlinear rub-impact force and nonlinear suspension (hard spring) are presented and coupled together in this study. The displacements in the horizontal and vertical directions are considered for various non-dimensional speed ratios. The numerical results show that the dynamic behaviors of the system vary with the dimensionless speed ratios, the dimensionless unbalance parameters and the dimensionless parameter, l^∗. Inclusive of the periodic, sub-harmonic, quasi-periodic and chaotic motions are found in this analysis. The results of this study contribute to a further understanding of the nonlinear dynamics of a rotor-bearing system considering rub-impact force existing between rotor and stator, nonlinear couple stress fluid film force and nonlinear suspension. We also prove that couple stress fluid used to be lubricant do improve dynamics of rotor-bearing system.

Nonlinear responses of a rub-impact overhung rotor

For a rotor system with bearings and step-diameter shaft in the oxygen pump of an engine, the contact between the rotor and the case is considered, and the chaotic response and bifurcation are investigated. The system is divided into elements of elastic support, shaft and disk, and based on the transfer matrix method, the motion equation of the system is derived, and solved by Newmark integration method. It is found that hardening the support can delay the occurrence of chaos. When rubbing begins, the grazing bifurcation will cause periodic motion to become quasi-period. With variation of system parameters, such as rotating speed, imbalance and external damping, chaotic response can be observed, along with other complex dynamics such as period- doubling bifurcation and torus bifurcation in the response.     

Complex dynamics in Duffing system with two external forcings

Duffing's equation with two external forcing terms have been discussed. The threshold values of chaotic motion under the periodic and quasi-periodic perturbations are obtained by using second-order averaging method and Melnikov's method. Numerical simulations not only show the consistence with the theoretical analysis but also exhibit the interesting bifurcation diagrams and the more new complex dynamical behaviors, including period-n (n=2,3,6,8) orbits, cascades of period-doubling and reverse period doubling bifurcations, quasi-periodic orbit, period windows, bubble from period-one to period-two, onset of chaos, hopping behavior of chaos, transient chaos, chaotic attractors and strange non-chaotic attractor, crisis which depends on the frequencies, amplitudes and damping. In particular, the second frequency plays a very important role for dynamics of the system, and the system can leave chaotic region to periodic motions by adjusting some parameter which can be considered as an control strategy of chaos. The computation of Lyapunov exponents confirm the dynamical behaviors.

Complex dynamics of a discrete fractional‐order Leslie‐Gower predator‐prey model

A proposed discretized form of fractional‐order prey‐predator model is investigated. A sufficient condition for the solution of the discrete system to exist and to be unique is determined. Jury stability test is applied for studying stability of equilibrium points of the discretized system. Then, the effects of varying fractional order and other parameters of the systems on its dynamics are examined. The system undergoes Neimark‐Sacker and flip bifurcation under certain conditions. We observe that the model exhibits chaotic dynamics following stable states as the memory parameter α decreases and step size h increases. Theoretical results illustrate the rich dynamics and complexity of the model. Numerical simulation validates theoretical results and demonstrates the presence of rich dynamical behaviors include S‐asymptotically bounded periodic orbits, quasi‐periodicity, and chaos. The system exhibits a wide range of dynamical behaviors for fractional‐order α key parameter.     

Complexity analysis of dynamic noncooperative game models for closed-loop supply chain with product recovery

In this paper, we consider a closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) with product recovery, which is composed of one manufacturer and one retailer. The retailer is in charge of recollecting and the manufacturer is responsible for product recovery. The system can be regarded as a coupling dynamics of the forward and reverse supply chain. Under different decision criteria, two noncooperative game models: Stackelberg game model and peer-to-peer game model are developed. The dynamic phenomena, such as the bifurcation, chaos and sensitivity to initial values are analyzed through bifurcation diagrams and the largest Lyapunov exponent (LLE). The influences of decision parameters on the complex nonlinear dynamics behaviors of the two models are further analyzed by comparing parameter basin plots, and the results show that with the improvement of retailer’s competitive position, the CLSC system will be more easier to enter into chaos.     

Chaos in a generalized van der Pol system and in its fractional order system

In this paper, chaos of a generalized van der Pol system with fractional orders is studied. Both nonautonomous and autonomous systems are considered in detail. Chaos in the nonautonomous generalized van der Pol system excited by a sinusoidal time function with fractional orders is studied. Next, chaos in the autonomous generalized van der Pol system with fractional orders is considered. By numerical analyses, such as phase portraits, Poincaré maps and bifurcation diagrams, periodic, and chaotic motions are observed. Finally, it is found that chaos exists in the fractional order system with the order both less than and more than the number of the states of the integer order generalized van der Pol system.     

Complex dynamics in a discrete-time predator-prey system without Allee effect

In this paper, complex dynamics of the discrete-time predator-prey system without Allee effect are investigated in detail. Conditions of the existence for flip bifurcation and Hopf bifurcation are derived by using center manifold theorem and bifurcation theory and checked up by numerical simulations. Chaos, in the sense of Marotto, is also proved by both analytical and numerical methods. Numerical simulations included bifurcation diagrams, Lyapunov exponents, phase portraits, fractal dimensions display new and richer dynamics behaviors. More specifically, this paper presents the finding of period-one orbit, period-three orbits, and chaos in the sense of Marotto, complete period-doubling bifurcation and invariant circle leading to chaos with a great abundance period-windows, simultaneous occurrance of two different routes (invariant circle and inverse period- doubling bifurcation, and period-doubling bifurcation and inverse period-doubling bifurcation) to chaos for a given bifurcation parameter, period doubling bifurcation with period-three orbits to chaos, suddenly appearing or disappearing chaos, different kind of interior crisis, nice chaotic attractors, coexisting (2,3,4) chaotic sets, non-attracting chaotic set, and so on, in the discrete-time predator-prey system. Combining the existing results in the current literature with the new results reported in this paper, a more complete understanding is given of the discrete-time predator-prey systems with Allee effect and without Allee effect.     

Chaotic responses on gear pair system equipped with journal bearings under turbulent flow

This study performs a systematic analysis of the dynamic behavior of a gear-bearing system with the turbulent flow effect, nonlinear suspension, nonlinear oil-film force and nonlinear gear mesh force. The dynamic orbits of the system are observed using bifurcation diagrams plotted using the dimensionless damping coefficient, unbalance coefficient and the dimensionless rotational speed ratio as control parameters. The onset of chaotic motion is identified from the phase diagrams, power spectra, Poincaré maps, Lyapunov exponents and fractal dimension of the gear system. The numerical results reveal that the system exhibits a diverse range of periodic, sub-harmonic and chaotic behaviors. The results presented in this study provide a detailed understanding of the operating conditions under which undesirable dynamic motion takes place in gear-bearing system and therefore offer a useful source of reference for engineers in designing and controlling such systems.

Dynamic analysis and experiment investigation of a cracked dual-disc bearing-rotor system based on orbit morphological characteristics

The paper is aimed to examine dynamic behaviors of a dual-disc bearing-rotor system in multi-fault state, and the crack detection based on the orbit morphological characteristics and vibration responses is proposed. Dynamic response and vibration signal analysis are two significant studies in rotor system. Most researchers have simulated the nonlinear dynamics and analyzed the fault signal using various methods separately. However, the fault feature from vibration signal is tightly connected with the dynamic mechanism in the rotor system, especially in rotor system with coupling multi-fault. In the paper, the dynamic model of the dual-disc bearing-rotor system is established, which takes into account the effects of crack, rub-impact and nonlinear oil-film forces. The vibration responses and the effect of crack on dual-disc rotor system with multi faults are investigated. The existence of crack and the coupling effect of multi faults enrich dynamic behavior of the dual-disc bearing-rotor system, and the response near the 1/2 subcritical speed provides a criterion for crack detection. Experiment investigation is attempted for the first time, which is based on the changes of crack depth and rotation speed for multi-fault dual-disc rotor system. The analysis of the dynamic response and the orbit morphological characteristics from experiment can effectively detect the crack information.     

Bifurcation,chaos, and their control in a wheelset model

In this paper, we present an improved wheelset motion model with two degrees of freedom and study the dynamic behaviors of the system including the symmetry, the existence and uniqueness of the solution, continuous dependence on initial conditions, and Hopf bifurcation. The dynamic characteristics of the wheelset motion system under a nonholonomic constraint are investigated. These results generalize and improve some known results about the wheelset motion system. Meanwhile, based on multiple equilibrium analysis, calculation of Lyapunov exponents and Poincaré section, the chaotic behaviors of the wheelset system are discussed, which indicates that there are more complex dynamic behaviors in the railway wheelset system with higher order terms of Taylor series of trigonometric functions. This paper has also realized the chaos control and bifurcation control for the wheelset motion system by adaptive feedback control method and linear feedback control. The results show that the chaotic wheelset system and bifurcation wheelset system are all well controlled, whether by controlling the yaw angle and the lateral displacement or only by controlling the yaw angle. Numerical simulations are carried out to further verify theoretical analyses.
