Analytical period-3 motions to chaos in a hardening Duffing oscillator

In this paper, bifurcation trees of period-3 motions to chaos in the periodically forced, hardening Duffing oscillator are investigated analytically. Analytical solutions for period-3 and period-6 motions are used for the bifurcation trees of period-3 motions to chaos. Such bifurcation trees are based on the Hopf bifurcations of asymmetric period-3 motions. In addition, an independent symmetric period-3 motion without imbedding in chaos is discovered, and such a symmetric period-3 motion possesses saddle-node bifurcations only. The switching of symmetric to asymmetric period-3 motions is completed through saddle-node bifurcations, and the onset of asymmetric period-6 motions occurs at the Hopf bifurcations of asymmetric period-3 motions. Continuously, the onset of period-12 motions is at the Hopf bifurcation of asymmetric period-6 motions. With such bifurcation trees, the chaotic motions relative to asymmetric period-3 motions can be determined analytically. This investigation provides a systematic way to study analytical dynamics of chaos relative to period-m motions in nonlinear dynamical systems.

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.     

Analysis of Duffing oscillator with time-delayed fractional-order PID controller

The free vibration of Duffing oscillator with time-delayed fractional-order Proportional-Integral-Derivative (FOPID) controller based on displacement feedback is studied. The second-order approximate analytical solution is obtained by KBM asymptotic method. The effects of the parameters in FOPID controller on the dynamical properties are characterized by some equivalent parameters. The correctness of the approximate analytical results is verified by the numerical results. The effects of the time-delayed FOPID controller with displacement feedback on control performances of Duffing oscillator are analyzed in detail by time response, and the stability conditions of zero solution and periodic motions are also presented. Finally, the control performances on Duffing oscillator with large damping are further analyzed. And the results show that one could take the advantage of time delay, when the parameters of time-delayed FOPID controller are chosen reasonably.     

Implementation and study of the nonlinear dynamics of a memristor-based Duffing oscillator

An electronic model of Duffing oscillator with a characteristic memristive nonlinear element is proposed instead of the classical cubic nonlinearity. The memristive Duffing oscillator circuit system is mathematically modeled, and the stability analysis presents the evolution of the proposed system. The dynamical behavior of this circuit is investigated through numerical simulations, statistical analysis, and real-time hardware experiments, which have been carried out under the external periodic force. The chaotic dynamics of the circuit is studied by means of phase diagram. It is found that the proposed circuit system shows complex behaviors, like bifurcations and chaos, three tori, transient chaos, and intermittency for a certain range of circuit parameters. The observed phenomena and scenario are illustrated in detail through experimental and numerical studies of memristive Duffing oscillator circuit. The existence of regular and chaotic behaviors is also verified by using 0–1 test measurements. In addition, the robustness of the signal strength is confirmed through signal-to-noise ratio. The numerically observed results are confirmed from the laboratory experiment.

Time delay Duffing’s systems: chaos and chatter control

The effect of a delay feedback control (DFC), realized by displacement in the Duffing oscillator, for parameters which generate strange chaotic Ueda attractor is investigated in this paper. First, the classical Duffing system without time delay is analysed to find stable and especially unstable periodic orbits which can be stabilized by means of displacement delay feedback. The periodic orbits are found with help of the continuation method using the AUTO97 software. Next, the DFC is introduced with a time delay and a feedback gain parameters. The proper time delay and feedback gain are found in order to destroy the chaotic attractor and to stabilize the periodic orbit. Finally, chatter generated by time delay component is suppressed with help of an external excitation.     

Strong chaotification and robust chaos in the Duffing oscillator induced by two-frequency excitation

In this work, we demonstrate numerically that two-frequency excitation is an effective method to produce chaotification over very large regions of the parameter space for the Duffing oscillator with single- and double-well potentials. It is also shown that chaos is robust in the last case. Robust chaos is characterized by the existence of a single chaotic attractor which is not altered by changes in the system parameters. It is generally required for practical applications of chaos to prevent the effects of fabrication tolerances, external influences, and aging that can destroy chaos. After showing that very large and continuous regions in the parameter space develop a chaotic dynamics under two-frequency excitation for the double-well Duffing oscillator, we demonstrate that chaos is robust over these regions. The proof is based upon the observation of the monotonic changes in the statistical properties of the chaotic attractor when the system parameters are varied and by its uniqueness, demonstrated by changing the initial conditions. The effects of a second frequency in the single-well Duffing oscillator is also investigated. While a quite significant chaotification is observed, chaos is generally not robust in this case.

On the resonance response of an asymmetric Duffing oscillator

The primary resonance response of an asymmetric Duffing oscillator with no linear stiffness term and with hardening characteristic is investigated in this paper. An approximate solution corresponding to the steady-state response is sought by applying the harmonic balance method. Its stability is also studied. It is found that different shapes of frequency-response curves can exist. Multiple-valued solutions, indicating the occurrence of jump phenomena, are observed analytically and confirmed numerically. The influence of the system parameters on the primary resonance response is also examined.     

Jump and bifurcation of Duffing oscillator under narrow-band excitation

The jump and bifurcation of Duffing oscillator with hardening spring subject to narrow-band random excitation are systematically and comprehensively examined. It is shown that, in a certain domain of the space of the oscillator and excitation parameters, there are two types of more probable motions in the stationary response of the Duffing oscillator and jumps may occur. The jump is a transition of the response from one more probable motion to another or vise versa. Outside the domain the stationary response is either nearly Gaussian or like a diffused limit cycle. As the parameters change across the boundary of the domain the qualitative behavior of the stationary response changes and it is a special kind of bifurcation. It is also shown that, for a set of specified parameters, the statistics are unique and they are independent of initial condition. It is pointed out that some previous results and interpretations on this problem are incorrect. The project supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China     

Free vibration of two coupled nonlinear oscillators

An analytical investigation is carried out on the free vibration of a two degree of freedom weakly nonlinear oscillator. Namely, the method of multiple time scales is first applied in deriving modulation equations for a van der Pol oscillator coupled with a Duffing oscillator. For the case of non-resonant oscillations, these equations are in standard normal form of a codimension two (Hopf-Hopf) bifurcation, which permits a complete analysis to be performed. Three different types of asymptotic states-corresponding to trivial, periodic and quasiperiodic motions of the original system-are obtained and their stability is analyzed. Transitions between these different solutions are also identified and analyzed in terms of two appropriate parameters. Then, effects of a coupling, a detuning, a nonlinear stiffness and a damping parameter are investigated numerically in a systematic manner. The results are interpreted in terms of classical engineering terminology and are related to some relatively new findings in the area of nonlinear dynamical systems.     

Bifurcations in a forced softening duffing oscillator

The response of a damped Duffing oscillator of the softening type to a harmonic excitation is analyzed in a two-parameter space consisting of the frequency and amplitude of the excitation. An approximate procedure is developed for the generation of the bifurcation diagram in the parameter space of interest. It is a combination of second-order perturbation solutions of the system in the neighborhood of its non-linear resonances and Floquet analysis. The results show that the proposed scheme is capable of predicting symmetry-breaking and period-doubling bifurcations as well as Jumps to either bounded or unbounded motions. The results obtained are validated using analogand digital-computer simulations, which show chaos and unbounded motions, among other behaviors.     

Modified Parker-Sochacki method for solving nonlinear oscillators

A new approach is presented for solving nonlinear oscillatory systems. Parker-Sochacki method (PSM) is combined with Laplace-Padé resummation method to obtain approximate periodic solutions for three nonlinear oscillators. The first one is Duffing oscillator with quintic nonlinearity which has odd nonlinearity. The second one is Helmholtz oscillator which has even nonlinearity. The last one is a strongly nonlinear oscillator, namely; relativistic harmonic oscillator which has a fractional order nonlinearity. Solutions are also obtained using Runge-Kutta numerical method (RKM) and Lindstedt-Poincare method (LPM). However, the LPM could not be used to solve the relativistic harmonic oscillator since it is a strongly nonlinear oscillator. The comparison between these solutions shows that the convergence zone for the Parker-Sochacki with Laplace-Padé method (PSLPM) is remarkably increased compared to PSM method. It also shows that the PSLPM solutions are in excellent agreement with LPM solutions for Duffing oscillator and are superior to LPM solutions in case of Helmholtz oscillator. The PSLPM succeeded to give an accurate periodic solution for the relativistic harmonic oscillator. For a wide range of solution domain, comparing PSLPM with RKM prove the correctness of the PSLPM method. Hence, the PSLPM method can be used with satisfied confidence to solve a broad class of nonlinear oscillators.     

Chaotic oscillations in pipes conveying pulsating fluid

Chaotic motions of a simply supported nonlinear pipe conveying fluid with harmonie velocity fluetuations are investigated. The motions are investigated in two flow velocity regimes, one below and above the critical velocity for divergence. Analyses are carried out taking into account single mode and two mode approximations in the neighbourhood of fundamental resonance. The amplitude of the harmonic velocity perturbation is considered as the control parameter. Both period doubling sequence and a sudden transition to chaos of an asymmetric period 2 motion are observed. Above the critical velocity chaos is explained in terms of periodic motion about the equilibrium point shifting to another equilibrium point through a saddle point. Phase plane trajectories, Poincaré maps and time histories are plotted giving the nature of motion. Both single and two mode approximations essentially give the same qualitative behaviour. The stability limits of trivial and nontrivial solutions are obtained by the multiple time scale method and harmonic balance method which are in very good agreement with the numerical results.     

Numerical and geometrical analysis of bifurcation and chaos for an asymmetric elastic nonlinear oscillator

An asymmetric nonlinear oscillator representative of the finite forced dynamics of a structural system with initial curvature is used as a model system to show how the combined use of numerical and geometrical analysis allows deep insight into bifurcation phenomena and chaotic behaviour in the light of the system global dynamics.Numerical techniques are used to calculate fixed points of the response and bifurcation diagrams, to identify chaotic attractors, and to obtain basins of attraction of coexisting solutions. Geometrical analysis in control-phase portraits of the invariant manifolds of the direct and inverse saddles corresponding to unstable periodic motions is performed systematically in order to understand the global attractor structure and the attractor and basin bifurcations.

Steady state response analysis for fractional dynamic systems based on memory-free principle and harmonic balancing

A semi-analytic approach is proposed to analyze steady state responses of dynamic systems containing fractional derivatives. A major purpose is to efficiently combine the harmonic balancing (HB) technique and Yuan–Agrawal (YA) memory-free principle. As steady solutions being expressed by truncated Fourier series, a simple yet efficient way is suggested based on the YA principle to explicitly separate the Caputo fractional derivative as periodic and decaying non-periodic parts. Neglecting the decaying terms and applying HB procedures result into a set of algebraic equations in the Fourier coefficients. The linear algebraic equations are solved exactly for linear systems, and the non-linear ones are solved by Newton–Raphson plus arc-length continuation algorithm for non-linear problems. Both periodic and triple-periodic solutions obtained by the presented method are in excellent agreement with those by either predictor–corrector (PC) or YA method. Importantly, the presented method is capable of detecting both stable and unstable periodic solutions, whereas time-stepping integration techniques such as YA and PC can only track stable ones. Together with the Floquet theory, therefore, the presented method allows us to address the bifurcations in detail of the steady responses of fractional Duffing oscillator. Symmetry breakings and cyclic-fold bifurcations are found and discussed for both periodic and triple-periodic solutions.     

Optimal Control of Nonregular Dynamics in a Duffing Oscillator

A method for controlling nonlinear dynamics and chaos previouslydeveloped by the authors is applied to the classical Duffing oscillator.The method, which consists in choosing the best shape of externalperiodic excitations permitting to avoid the transverse intersection ofthe stable and unstable manifolds of the hilltop saddle, is firstillustrated and then applied by using the Melnikov method foranalytically detecting homoclinic bifurcations. Attention is focused onoptimal excitations with a finite number of superharmonics, because theyare theoretically performant and easy to reproduce. Extensive numericalinvestigations aimed at confirming the theoretical predictions andchecking the effectiveness of the method are performed. In particular,the elimination of the homoclinic tangency and the regularization offractal basins of attraction are numerically verified. The reduction ofthe erosion of the basins of attraction is also investigated in detail,and the paper ends with a study of the effects of control on delayingcross-well chaotic attractors.
