Multi-pulse chaotic motions of high-dimension nonlinear system for a laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular plate

This paper investigates the multi-pulse global bifurcations and chaotic dynamics of the high-dimension nonlinear system for a laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular plate by using an extended Melnikov method in the resonant case. Using the von Karman type equations, Reddy’s third-order shear deformation plate theory and Hamilton’s principle, the equations of motion are derived for the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular plate with combined parametric excitations and transverse excitation. Applying the method of multiple scales and Galerkin’s approach to the partial differential governing equation, the four-dimensional averaged equation is obtained for the case of 1:2 internal resonance and primary parametric resonance. From the averaged equations obtained, the theory of normal form is used to derive the explicit expressions of normal form with a double zero and a pair of pure imaginary eigenvalues. Based on the explicit expressions of normal form, the extended Melnikov method is used for the first time to investigate the Shilnikov type multi-pulse homoclinic bifurcations and chaotic dynamics of the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular plate. The necessary conditions of the existence for the Shilnikov type multi-pulse chaotic dynamics of the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular plate are analytically obtained. Numerical simulations also illustrate that the Shilnikov type multi-pulse chaotic motions can also occur in the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular plate. Overall, both theoretical and numerical studies demonstrate that the chaos in the Smale horseshoe sense exists for the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular plate.     

Global Bifurcations and Chaotic Dynamics in Nonlinear Nonplanar Oscillations of a Parametrically Excited Cantilever Beam

This paper presents the analysis of the global bifurcations and chaotic dynamics for the nonlinear nonplanar oscillations of a cantilever beam subjected to a harmonic axial excitation and transverse excitations at the free end. The governing nonlinear equations of nonplanar motion with parametric and external excitations are obtained. The Galerkin procedure is applied to the partial differential governing equation to obtain a two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system with parametric and forcing excitations. The resonant case considered here is 2:1 internal resonance, principal parametric resonance-1/2 subharmonic resonance for the in-plane mode and fundamental parametric resonance–primary resonance for the out-of-plane mode. The parametrically and externally excited system is transformed to the averaged equations by using the method of multiple scales. From the averaged equation obtained here, the theory of normal form is applied to find the explicit formulas of normal forms associated with a double zero and a pair of pure imaginary eigenvalues. Based on the normal form obtained above, a global perturbation method is utilized to analyze the global bifurcations and chaotic dynamics in the nonlinear nonplanar oscillations of the cantilever beam. The global bifurcation analysis indicates that there exist the heteroclinic bifurcations and the Silnikov type single-pulse homoclinic orbit in the averaged equation for the nonlinear nonplanar oscillations of the cantilever beam. These results show that the chaotic motions can occur in the nonlinear nonplanar oscillations of the cantilever beam. Numerical simulations verify the analytical predictions.

The bifurcation and chaos of a clamped circular functionally graded plate is investigated. Considered the geometrically nonlinear relations and the temperature-dependent properties of the materials, the nonlinear partial differential equations of FGM plate subjected to transverse harmonic excitation and thermal load are derived. The Duffing nonlinear forced vibration equation is deduced by using Galerkin method and a multiscale method is used to obtain the bifurcation equation. According to singularity theory, the universal unfolding problem of the bifurcation equation is studied and the bifurcation diagrams are plotted under some conditions for unfolding parameters.

The nonlinear dynamics of a base-excited slender beam carrying a lumped mass subjected to simultaneous combination parametric resonance of sum and difference type along with 1:3:5 internal resonances is investigated. Method of normal form is applied to the governing nonlinear temporal differential equation of motion to obtain a set of first-order differential equations which are used to obtain the steady-state, periodic, quasi-periodic and chaotic responses for different control parameters viz., amplitude and frequency of external excitation and damping. Frequency response, phase portraits, time spectra and bifurcation diagram are plotted to visualize the system behaviour with variation in the control parameters. Here, two distinct zones of trivial instability, blue sky catastrophe phenomena, jump down phenomena, simultaneous occurrence of periodic and chaotic orbits, period doubling of the mixed-mode periodic orbits leading to chaos, attractor merging crisis, boundary crisis, type II and on-off intermittencies are observed. Bifurcation diagram is plotted to facilitate the designer to choose a safe operating zone.     

NONLINEAR VIBRATION OF THE COUPLED STRUCTURE OF SUSPENDED-CABLE-STAYED BEAM-1:2 INTERNAL RESONANCE

Through the Galerkin method the nonlinear ordinary differential equations （ODEs） in time are obtained from the nonlinear partial differential equations （PDEs） to describe the mo- tion of the coupled structure of a suspended-cable-stayed beam. In the PDEs, the curvature of main cables and the deformation of cable stays are taken into account. The dynamics of the struc- ture is investigated based on the ODEs when the structure is subjected to a harmonic excitation in the presence of both high-frequency principle resonance and 1：2 internal resonance. It is found that there are typical jumps and saturation phenomena of the vibration amplitude in the struc- ture. And the structure may present quasi-periodic vibration or chaos, if the stiffness of the cable stays membrane and frequency of external excitation are disturbed.

Global bifurcations in externally excited autoparametric systems

We consider an autoparametric system consisting of an oscillator coupled with an externally excited subsystem. The oscillator and the subsystem are in one-to-one internal resonance. The excited subsystem is in primary resonance. The method of second-order averaging is used to obtain a set of autonomous equations of the second-order approximations to the externally excited system with autoparametric resonance. The Šhilnikov-type homoclinic orbits and chaotic dynamics of the averaged equations are studied in detail. The global bifurcation analysis indicates that there exist the heteroclinic bifurcations and the Šhilnikov-type homoclinic orbits in the averaged equations. The results obtained above mean the existence of the amplitude-modulated chaos for the Smale horseshoe sense in the externally excited system with autoparametric resonance. Furthermore, a detailed bifurcation analysis of the dynamic (periodic and chaotic) solutions of the averaged equations is presented. Nine branches of dynamic solutions are found. Two of these branches emerge from two Hopf bifurcations and the other seven are isolated. The limit cycles undergo symmetry-breaking, cyclic-fold and period-doubling bifurcations, whereas the chaotic attractors undergo attractor-merging and boundary crises. Simultaneous occurrence of the limit cycle and chaotic attractors, homoclinic orbits, intermittency chaos and homoclinic explosions are also observed.     

Global bifurcations and homoclinic trees in motion of a thin rectangular plate on a nonlinear elastic foundation

The global bifurcations and chaotic dynamics of a thin rectangular plate on a nonlinear elastic foundation subjected to a harmonic excitation are investigated. On the basis of the amplitude and phase modulation equations derived by the method of multiple scales, a near integrable two-degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian system is obtained by a transformation. The energy-phase method proposed by Haller and Wiggins is employed to analyze the global bifurcations for the thin rectangular plate. The results obtained here indicate that there exist the Silnikov-type multi-pulse orbits homoclinic to certain invariant sets for the resonant case, which implies that chaotic motions may occur for this class of systems. Homoclinic trees which describe the repeated bifurcations of multi-pulse solutions are found. To illustrate the theoretical predictions, we present visualizations of these complicated structures and numerical evidence of chaotic motions.

The non-linear equations of motion of the elastic cable to small vibration of one support are derived. The averaged equations are obtained by using the method of multiple scales. Based on the averaged equations, the theory of normal form and Maple program are used to obtain the explicit expressions of normal form associated with a double zero and a pair of pure imaginary eigenvalues. On the basis of the normal form, global bifurcation analysis of the parametrically and externally excited suspended elastic cable is given by a global perturbation method developed by Kovacic and Wiggins. The chaotic motion of the elastic cable is also found by numerical simulation.     

Nonlinearly damped systems under simultaneous broad-band and harmonic excitations

The probability distribution of the response of a nonlinearly damped system subjected to both broad-band and harmonic excitations is investigated. The broad-band excitation is additive, and the harmonic excitations can be either additive or multiplicative. The frequency of a harmonic excitation can be either near or far from a resonance frequency of the system. The stochastic averaging method is applied to obtain the Itô type stochastic differential equations for an averaged system described by a set of slowly varying variables, which are approximated as components of a Markov vector. Then, a procedure based on the concept of stationary potential is used to obtain the exact stationary probability density for a class of such averaged systems. For those systems not belonging to this class, approximate solutions are obtained using the method of weighted residuals. Application of the exact and approximate solution procedures are illustrated in two specific cases, and the results are compared with those obtained from Monte Carlo simulations.     

On the dynamics of tapping mode atomic force microscope probes

A?mathematical model is developed to investigate the grazing dynamics of tapping mode atomic force microscopes (AFM) subjected to a base harmonic excitation. A?multimode Galerkin approximation is utilized to discretize the nonlinear partial differential equation of motion governing the cantilever response and associated boundary conditions and obtain a set of nonlinearly coupled ordinary differential equations governing the time evolution of the system dynamics. A?comprehensive numerical analysis is performed for a wide range of the excitation amplitude and frequency. The tip oscillations are examined using nonlinear dynamic tools through several examples. The non-smoothness in the tip/sample interaction model is treated rigorously. A?higher-mode Galerkin analysis indicates that period doubling bifurcations and chaotic vibrations are possible in tapping mode microscopy for certain operating parameters. It is also found that a single-mode Galerkin approximation, which accurately predicts the tip nonlinear responses far from the sample, is not adequate for predicting all of the nonlinear phenomena exhibited by an AFM, such as grazing bifurcations, and leads to both quantitative and qualitative errors.     

Nonlinear vibrations of a composite laminated cantilever rectangular plate with one-to-one internal resonance

The nonlinear vibrations of a composite laminated cantilever rectangular plate subjected to the in-plane and transversal excitations are investigated in this paper. Based on the Reddy??s third-order plate theory and the von Karman type equations for the geometric nonlinearity, the nonlinear partial differential governing equations of motion for the composite laminated cantilever rectangular plate are established by using the Hamilton??s principle. The Galerkin approach is used to transform the nonlinear partial differential governing equations of motion into a two degree-of-freedom nonlinear system under combined parametric and forcing excitations. The case of foundational parametric resonance and 1:1 internal resonance is taken into account. The method of multiple scales is utilized to obtain the four-dimensional averaged equation. The numerical method is used to find the periodic and chaotic motions of the composite laminated cantilever rectangular plate. It is found that the chaotic responses are sensitive to the changing of the forcing excitations and the damping coefficient. The influence of the forcing excitation and the damping coefficient on the bifurcations and chaotic behaviors of the composite laminated cantilever rectangular plate is investigated numerically. The frequency-response curves of the first-order and the second-order modes show that there exists the soft-spring type characteristic for the first-order and the second-order modes.     

Nonlinear interactions and chaotic dynamics of suspended cables with three-to-one internal resonances

Nonlinear planar oscillations of suspended cables subjected to external excitations with three-to-one internal resonances are investigated. At first, the Galerkin method is used to discretize the governing nonlinear integral–partial-differential equation. Then, the method of multiple scales is applied to obtain the modulation equations in the case of primary resonance. The equilibrium solutions, the periodic solutions and chaotic solutions of the modulation equations are also investigated. The Newton–Raphson method and the pseudo-arclength path-following algorithm are used to obtain the frequency/force–response curves. The supercritical Hopf bifurcations are found in these curves. Choosing these bifurcations as the initial points and applying the shooting method and the pseudo-arclength path-following algorithm, the periodic solution branches are obtained. At the same time, the Floquet theory is used to determine the stability of the periodic solutions. Numerical simulations are used to illustrate the cascades of period-doubling bifurcations leading to chaos. At last, the nonlinear responses of the two-degree-of-freedom model are investigated.     

Complicated nonlinear responses of a simply supported FGM rectangular plate under combined parametric and external excitations

In this paper, we use the asymptotic perturbation method based on the Fourier expansion and the temporal rescaling to investigate the nonlinear oscillations and chaotic dynamics of a simply supported rectangular plate made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) subjected to a through-thickness temperature field together with parametric and external excitations. Material properties are assumed to be temperature-dependent. Based on the Reddy’s third-order plate theory, the governing equations of motion for the plate are derived using the Hamilton’s principle. The Galerkin procedure is employed to obtain a two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system including the quadratic and cubic nonlinear terms. The resonant case considered here is 1:2 internal resonance, principal parametric resonance-1/2 subharmonic resonance. Based on the averaged equation in polar coordinate form, the stability of steady state solutions is analyzed. The phase portrait, waveform and Poincaré map are used to analyze the periodic and chaotic motions of the FGM rectangular plate. It is found that the FGM rectangular plate exhibits the chaotic motions under certain circumstances. It is seen that the nonlinear dynamic responses of the FGM rectangular plate are more sensitive to transverse excitation. The excitation force can be used as a controlling factor which can change the response of the FGM rectangular plate from periodic motion to the chaotic motion.     

Periodic and Chaotic Motions of a Rotor-Active Magnetic Bearing with Quadratic and Cubic Terms and Time-Varying Stiffness

In this paper, we use the asymptotic perturbation method to investigate nonlinear oscillations and chaotic dynamics in a rotor-active magnetic bearings (AMB) system with 8-pole legs and the time-varying stiffness. The stiffness in the AMB is considered as the time varying in a periodic form. Because of considering the weight of the rotor, the formulation on the electromagnetic force resultants includes the quadratic and cubic nonlinearities. The resulting dimensionless equations of motion for the rotor-AMB system with the time-varying stiffness in the horizontal and vertical directions are a two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system with quadratic and cubic nonlinearities and parametric excitation. The asymptotic perturbation method is used to obtain the averaged equations in the case of primary parametric resonance and 1/2 subharmonic resonance. It is found that there exist period-3, period-4, period-6, period-7, period-8, quasiperiodic and chaotic modulated amplitude oscillations in the rotor-AMB system with the time-varying stiffness. It is seen from the numerical results that there are the phenomena of the multiple solutions and the soft-spring type and the hardening-spring type in nonlinear frequency-response curves for the rotor-AMB system. The parametric excitation, or the time-varying stiffness produced by the PD controller is considered to be a controlling force which can control the chaotic response in the rotor-AMB system to a period n motion.     

Dynamical modeling and non-planar coupled behavior of inclined CFRP cables under simultaneous internal and external resonances

A dynamic model for an inclined carbon ?ber reinforced polymer(CFRP)cable is established, and the linear and nonlinear dynamic behaviors are investigated in detail. The partial differential equations for both the in-plane and out-of-plane dynamics of the inclined CFRP cable are obtained by Hamilton's principle. The linear eigenvalues are explored theoretically. Then, the ordinary differential equations for analyzing the dynamic behaviors are obtained by the Galerkin integral and dimensionless treatments.The steady-state solutions of the nonlinear equations are obtained by the multiple scale method(MSM) and the Newton-Raphson method. The frequency-and force-response curves are used to investigate the dynamic behaviors of the inclined CFRP cable under simultaneous internal(between the lowest in-plane and out-of-plane modes) and external resonances, i.e., the primary resonances induced by the excitations of the in-plane mode,the out-of-plane mode, and both the in-plane mode and the out-of-plane mode, respectively. The effects of the key parameters, e.g., Young's modulus, the excitation amplitude,and the frequency on the dynamic behaviors, are discussed in detail. Some interesting phenomena and results are observed and concluded.     

Bifurcation and chaos of a cable–beam coupled system under simultaneous internal and external resonances

The bifurcation and chaos of a cable–beam coupled system under simultaneous internal and external resonances are investigated. The combined effects of the nonlinear term due to the cable’s geometric and coupled behavior between the modes of the beam and the cable are considered. The nonlinear partial-differential equations are derived by the Hamiltonian principle. The Galerkin method is applied to truncate the governing equation into a set of ordinary differential equations. The bifurcation diagrams in three separate loading cases, namely, excitation acting on the cable, on the beam and simultaneously on the beam and cable, are analyzed with changing forcing amplitude. Based on careful numerical simulations, bifurcations and possible chaotic motions are represented to reveal the combined effects of nonlinearities on the dynamics of the beam and the cable when they act as an overall structure.     

Nonlinear vibrations of a shell-shaped workpiece during high-speed milling process

This paper is focused on nonlinear dynamics of a shell-shaped workpiece during high speed milling. The shell-shaped workpiece is modeled as a double-curved cantilevered shell subjected to a cutting force with time delay effects. Equations of motion are derived by using the Hamilton principle based on the classical shell theory and von Karman strain-displacement relation. The resulting nonlinear partial differential equations are reduced to a two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system by applying the Galerkin approach. The averaging method is used to obtain four-dimensional averaged equations for the case of foundational parametric resonance and 1:2 internal resonance. Using a numerical method, the dynamics of the cantilevered shell-shaped workpiece is studied under time-delay effects, parametric excitation, and forcing excitation. It is found that time-delay parameters have great impact on chaotic motion. With increasing amplitude of forcing and parametric excitations, the shell-shaped workpiece exhibits different dynamic behavior.
