Stability boundaries of a Mathieu equation having PT symmetry

I have applied multiple-scale perturbation theory to a generalized complex PT-symmetric Mathieu equation in order to find the stability boundaries between bounded and unbounded solutions. The analysis suggests that the non-Hermitian parameter present in the equation can be used to control the shape and curvature of these boundaries. Although this was suggested earlier by several authors, analytic formulas for the boundary curves were not given. This paper is a first attempt to fill this gap in the theory.     

Dynamic characteristics of resonant gyroscopes study based on the Mathieu equation approximate solution

Dynamic characteristics of the resonant gyroscope are studied based on the Mathieu equation approximate solution in this paper.The Mathieu equation is used to analyze the parametric resonant characteristics and the approximate output of the resonant gyroscope.The method of small parameter perturbation is used to analyze the approximate solution of the Mathieu equation.The theoretical analysis and the numerical simulations show that the approximate solution of the Mathieu equation is close to the dynamic output characteristics of the resonant gyroscope.The experimental analysis shows that the theoretical curve and the experimental data processing results coincide perfectly,which means that the approximate solution of the Mathieu equation can present the dynamic output characteristic of the resonant gyroscope.The theoretical approach and the experimental results of the Mathieu equation approximate solution are obtained,which provides a reference for the robust design of the resonant gyroscope.     

Mathieu Progressive Waves

A new family of exact solutions to the wave equation representing relatively undistorted progressive waves is constructed using separation of variables in the elliptic cylindrical coordinates and one of the Bateman transforms. The general form of this Bateman transform in an orthogonal curvilinear cylindrical coordinate system is discussed and a specific problem of physical feasibility of the obtained solutions, connected with their dependence on the cyclic coordinate, is addressed. The limiting case of zero eccentricity, in which the elliptic cylindrical coordinates turn into their circular cylindrical counterparts, is shown to correspond to the focused wave modes of the Bessel-Gauss type.     

Asymptotic solutions for Mathieu instability under random parametric excitation and nonlinear damping

A theoretical analysis is presented of the response of a lightly and nonlinearly damped mass-spring system in which the spring constant contains a small randomly fluctuating component. Damping is represented by a combination of linear and nonlinear power-law damping. System response to some initial disturbance at time zero is described by a sinusoidal wave whose amplitude and phase vary slowly and randomly with time. Leading order formulations for the equations of amplitude and phase are obtained through the application of methods of stochastic averaging of Stratonovich. The equations of amplitude and phase are given in two versions: Fokker-Planck equations for transient probability and Langevin equations for response in the time-domain. Solutions in closed-form of these equations are derived by methods of mathematical and theoretical physics involving higher transcendental functions. They are used to study the behavior of system response for ever increasing time applying asymptotic methods of analysis such as the method of steepest descent or saddle-point method. It is found that system behavior depends on the power density of the parametric excitation at twice the natural frequency and on the magnitude and form of the damping. Depending on these parameters different types of system behavior are found to be possible: response which decays exponentially to zero, response which leads to a stationary state of random behavior, and response which can either grow unboundedly or which approaches zero in a finite time.     

Homopolar oscillating-disc dynamo driven by parametric resonance

We use a simple model of Bullard-type disc dynamo, in which the disc rotation rate is subject to harmonic oscillations, to analyze the generation of magnetic field by the parametric resonance mechanism. The problem is governed by a damped Mathieu equation. The Floquet exponents, which define the magnetic field growth rates, are calculated depending on the amplitude and frequency of the oscillations. Firstly, we show that the dynamo can be excited at significantly subcritical disc rotation rate when the latter is subject to harmonic oscillations with a certain frequency. Secondly, at supercritical mean rotation rates, the dynamo can also be suppressed but only in narrow frequency bands and at sufficiently large oscillation amplitudes.     

Mathieu Equation and Elliptic Curve

We present a relation between the Mathieu equation and a particular elliptic curve. We find that the Floquet exponent of the Mathieu equation, for both q<<1 and q>>1, can be obtained from the integral of a differential one form along the two homology cycles of the elliptic curve. Certain higher order differential operators are needed to generate the WKB expansion. We make a few conjectures about the general structure of these differential operators.     

Damped Mathieu Equation with a Modulation Property of the Homotopy Perturbation Method

In this article, the main objective is to employ the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) as an alternative to classical perturbation methods for solving nonlinear equations having periodic coefficients. As a simple example, the nonlinear damping Mathieu equation has been investigated. In this investigation, two nonlinear solvability conditions are imposed. One of them was imposed in the first-order homotopy perturbation and used to study the stability behavior at resonance and non-resonance cases. The next level of the perturbation approaches another solvability condition and is applied to obtain the unknowns become clear in the solution for the first-order solvability condition. The approach assumed here is so significant for solving many parametric nonlinear equations that arise within the engineering and nonlinear science.     

Stability analysis of a parametrically excited functionally graded piezoelectric, MEM system

In this paper the mechanical behavior of a parametrically actuated functionally graded piezoelectric (FGP) clamped-clamped micro-beam is investigated. The micro-beam is supposed to be a composite material with silicon and piezoelectric base. The mechanical properties of the structure, including elasticity modulus, density, and piezoelectricity coefficient are supposed to vary along the height of the micro-beam with an exponential functionality. It is supposed that the FGP clamped-clamped micro-beam is actuated with a combination of direct and alternative electric potential difference. Application of DC and AC actuation voltage leads in a constant and a time-varying axial force. The governing differential equation of the motion is derived using Hamiltonian principle and discretized using expansion theorem with the corresponding shape functions of a clamped-clamped beam. The discretized system is governed by Mathieu equation which’s stability is investigated using Floquet theory for single degree of freedom systems and verified using multiple time scales of perturbation technique.     

Occurrence of stable periodic modes in a pendulum with cubic damping

Dynamical systems with nonlinear damping show interesting behavior in the periodic and chaotic phases. The Froude pendulum with cubical and linear damping is a paradigm for such a system. In this work the driven Froude pendulum is studied by the harmonic balancing method; the resulting nonlinear response curves are studied further for resonance and stability of symmetric oscillations with relatively low damping. The stability analysis is carried out by transforming the system of equations to the linear Mathieu equation.

Dynamical Localization II with an Application to the Almost Mathieu Operator

Several recent works have established dynamical localization for Schrödinger operators, starting from control on the localization length of their eigenfunctions, in terms of their centers of localization. We provide an alternative way to obtain dynamical localization, without resorting to such a strong condition on the exponential decay of the eigenfunctions. Furthermore, we illustrate our purpose with the almost Mathieu operator, H _{, ,} =–+ cos(2(+x)), 15 and with good Diophantine properties. More precisely, for almost all , for all q>0, and for all functions ²( ) of compact support, we show that The proof applies equally well to discrete and continuous random Hamiltonians. In all cases, it uses as input a repulsion principle of singular boxes, supplied in the random case by the multi-scale analysis.     

Purely absolutely continuous spectrum for almost Mathieu operators

Using a recent result of Sinai, we prove that the almost Mathieu operators acting onl ²(), (l _Y, )(n) = (l+1)+(l–)+ cos(n+) (n) have a purely absolutely continuous spectrum for almost all a provided that is a good irrational and is sufficiently small. Furthermore, the generalized eigen-functions are quasiperiodic.     

Parametric resonance with a point-vortex pair in a nonstationary deformation flow

The movement of a pair of point vortices with arbitrary intensities, embedded in a nonstationary shear and rotational flow, is studied. The expression for the vorticity center is shown to be reduced to a Riccati equation. In the particular case of harmonic oscillations, parametric resonance, which results in unbounded motion of the vortex pair, is found and analyzed. Using the fast oscillation averaging, an analytical estimate for the main zone in the parametric space is obtained. With the help of numerical calculations, the reliability of the estimate is asserted and a family of the minor zones is obtained.

Computing Eigen value equation and modal dispersion characteristics of an elliptical Bragg waveguide

Using the method of separation of variables in the elliptical coordinate system, a recursive formula for the electromagnetic fields in a new type of Bragg waveguide having elliptical core cross section with multilayered cladding is derived. The eigen equation is written in the form of Mathieu and the modified Mathieu functions and a dispersion relation is obtained for various modes supported by the proposed Bragg waveguide. The cutoff frequencies for several lower order even-odd modes have been calculated and their propagation characteristics are plotted. The results show that the dispersion curves are discontinuous and modes can exist only in particular wavelength bands. The effects of elliptical eccentricity on the mode cutoff values and mode transmission are addressed. Finally, the modal birefringence in the said waveguide is also estimated.     

Stability of the Boltzmann equation with potential forces on torus

In this paper, we are concerned with the stability of solutions to the Cauchy problem of the Boltzmann equation with potential forces on torus. It is shown that the natural steady state with the symmetry of origin is asymptotically stable in the Sobolev space with exponential rate in time for any initially smooth, periodic, origin symmetric small perturbation, which preserves the same total mass, momentum and mechanical energy. For the non-symmetric steady state, it is also shown that it is stable in L¹-norm for any initial data with the finite total mass, mechanical energy and entropy.
