Synchronization of a periodically forced Duffing oscillator with a periodically excited pendulum

In this paper, the analytical conditions for a periodically forced Duffing oscillator synchronized with a chaotic pendulum are developed through the theory of discontinuous dynamical systems. From the analytical conditions, the synchronization invariant domains are developed. For a better understanding of synchronization of two different dynamical systems, the partial and full synchronizations of the Duffing oscillator with the chaotic pendulum are presented for illustrations. The control parameter map is developed from the analytical conditions. Under special parameters, the two systems can be fully and partially synchronized. Since the forced pendulum has librational and rotational chaotic motions, the periodically forced Duffing oscillator can be synchronized only with the librational chaotic motions of the pendulum. It is impossible for the forced Duffing oscillator to be synchronized with the rotational chaotic motions.     

On the dynamics of a periodic Colpitts oscillator forced by periodic and chaotic signals

In this paper, we have examined effects of forcing a periodic Colpitts oscillator with periodic and chaotic signals for different values of coupling factors. The forcing signal is generated in a master bias-tuned Colpitts oscillator having identical structure as that of the slave periodic oscillator. Numerically solving the system equations, it is observed that the slave oscillator goes to chaotic state through a period-doubling route for increasing strengths of the forcing periodic signal. For forcing with chaotic signal, the transition to chaos is observed but the route to chaos is not clearly detectable due to random variations of the forcing signal strength. The chaos produced in the slave Colpitts oscillator for a chaotic forcing is found to be in a phase-synchronized state with the forced chaos for some values of the coupling factor. We also perform a hardware experiment in the radio frequency range with prototype Colpitts oscillator circuits and the experimental observations are in agreement with the numerical simulation results.     

The chaotic synchronization of a controlled pendulum with a periodically forced,damped Duffing oscillator

In this paper, the chaotic synchronization of the Duffing oscillator and controlled pendulum is investigated. From the analytical conditions developed in [1], the partial and full synchronizations of the controlled pendulum with chaotic motions in the Duffing oscillator are discussed. Compared with the periodic synchronization, in the chaotic synchronization, switching points for appearance and vanishing of the partial synchronization are chaotic. The control parameter map for the synchronization is developed from the analytical conditions, and the partial and full synchronizations are illustrated to show the analytical conditions. This synchronization is different from the controlled Duffing oscillator synchronizing with chaotic motion in the periodically excited pendulum. For a better understanding of synchronization characteristics between two different dynamical systems, effects with other parameters will be discussed later.

Transition to chaos in the self-excited system with a cubic double well potential and parametric forcing

We examine the Melnikov criterion for a global homoclinic bifurcation and a possible transition to chaos in case of a single degree of freedom nonlinear oscillator with a symmetric double well nonlinear potential. The system was subjected simultaneously to parametric periodic forcing and self-excitation via negative damping term. Detailed numerical studies confirm the analytical predictions and show that transitions from regular to chaotic types of motion are often associated with increasing the energy of an oscillator and its escape from a single well.     

Recovering unknown model parameters contained in a class of time-variant chaotic dynamical systems

This work deals mainly with the problem of recovering all unknown parameters for a class of time-variant chaotic dynamical systems from given time sequence. Based on synchronization between a chaotic sender system and an additional receiver system, a procedure, which combines a linear feedback technique with updated feedback gain and an adapted control strategy associated with the law of estimated parameters, is developed to dynamically determine the values of unknown parameters contained in the sender system. To promote widespread applications, the structure of the receiver system can be independent of that of the sender system. The effectiveness of this procedure is guaranteed by the periodic version of the classical LaSalle invariance principle of differential equations. Illustrations are presented for a harmonically excited Duffing oscillator and a four dimensional chaotic oscillator. The numerical results reveal the present procedure not only can precisely recover unknown model parameters, but also can rapidly response to sudden changes in unknown parameters. In addition, it has great robustness against the disturbance of noise.     

Local chaos induced by spatial oscillations of a perturbation

We study motion of an one-dimensional Hamiltonian oscillator driven by an external force which is periodic in time and in coordinate as well. It is shown that dynamics of the oscillator is strongly affected by the resonance between spatial and temporal oscillations of the perturbation imposed. In particular, this resonance can induce strong but bounded chaotic diffusion in certain areas of phase space. The model of the Duffing oscillator is used as an example for the numerical simulation.

Subharmonic Resonances and Chaotic Motions of a Bilinear Oscillator

A bilinear oscillator with different stiffnesses for positiveand negative deflections arises frequently in off-shore marinetechnology due to the slackening of mooring lines. A limitingcase, in which one of the stiffnesses becomes infinite, is theimpact oscillator which has applications to vessels moored ina harbour. The subharmonic resonances, bifurcations and chaotic motionsof these oscillators are studied using the concepts of topologicaldynamics. Problems of the existence, uniqueness and stabilityof the steady state motions are investigated, and particularuse is made of the Poincaré map. The bilinear oscillatoris shown to have co-existing small amplitude solutions undermost of its subharmonic resonances, showing that one-off andautomated computer integrations could easily miss an importantresonant peak. The domains of attraction of the competing stablesolutions are explored. Cascades of period-doubling bifurcationsand the exponential divergence of adjacent starts indicate thatthe impact oscillator has a régime of chaotic motionsgoverned by a strange attractor.     

Bifurcation analysis of a simple 3D oscillator and chaos synchronization of its coupled systems

Tama?evi?ius et al. proposed a simple 3D chaotic oscillator for educational purpose. In fact the oscillator can be implemented very easily and it shows typical bifurcation scenario so that it is a suitable training object for introductory education for students. However, as far as we know, no concrete studies on bifurcations or applications on this oscillator have been investigated. In this paper, we make a thorough investigation on local bifurcations of periodic solutions in this oscillator by using a shooting method. Based on results of the analysis, we study chaos synchronization phenomena in diffusively coupled oscillators. Both bifurcation sets of periodic solutions and parameter regions of in-phase synchronized solutions are revealed. An experimental laboratory of chaos synchronization is also demonstrated.     

Stochastic chaos in a Duffing oscillator and its control

Stochastic chaos discussed here means a kind of chaotic responses in a Duffing oscillator with bounded random parameters under harmonic excitations. A system with random parameters is usually called a stochastic system. The modifier ‘stochastic’ here implies dependent on some random parameter. As the system itself is stochastic, so is the response, even under harmonic excitations alone. In this paper stochastic chaos and its control are verified by the top Lyapunov exponent of the system. A non-feedback control strategy is adopted here by adding an adjustable noisy phase to the harmonic excitation, so that the control can be realized by adjusting the noise level. It is found that by this control strategy stochastic chaos can be tamed down to the small neighborhood of a periodic trajectory or an equilibrium state. In the analysis the stochastic Duffing oscillator is first transformed into an equivalent deterministic nonlinear system by the Gegenbauer polynomial approximation, so that the problem of controlling stochastic chaos can be reduced into the problem of controlling deterministic chaos in the equivalent system. Then the top Lyapunov exponent of the equivalent system is obtained by Wolf’s method to examine the chaotic behavior of the response. Numerical simulations show that the random phase control strategy is an effective way to control stochastic chaos.     

Periodic and chaotic dynamics in an asymmetric elastoplastic oscillator

We consider the dynamics of a harmonically forced oscillator with an asymmetric elastic–perfectly plastic stiffness function. The computed bifurcation diagrams for the oscillator show regions of periodic motion, hysteresis and large regions of chaotic motion. These different regions of dynamical behaviour are plotted in a two-dimensional parameter space consisting of forcing amplitude and forcing frequency. Examples of the chaotic motion encountered are shown using a discontinuity crossing map. Comparisons are made with the symmetric oscillator by computing a typical bifurcation diagram and considering previously published results for the symmetric system. From this we conclude that the asymmetric system is dominated by a large region of chaotic motion whereas in the symmetric oscillator period one motion and coexisting period three motion predominates.

Nonlinear dynamics and circuit realization of a new chaotic flow: A variant of Lorenz,Chen and Lü

In this paper, a new three-dimensional autonomous chaotic system is presented, and the range of the parameters which can induce the system to be unstable is analyzed. The dynamical behavior of this system is further investigated in some detail, including equilibria and stability, various attractors, together with the maximally complex attractor, Poincaré maps, bifurcations, and Lyapunov-exponent spectrum. The oscillator circuit of the new chaotic system is afterwards designed by using EWB software and a typical chaotic attractor is experimentally demonstrated.     

Energy and coherence loss rates in a one-dimensional vibrational system interacting with a bath

We consider the problem of the dynamics of a Gaussian wave packet in a one-dimensional harmonic ocsillator interacting with a bath. This problem arises in many chemical and biochemical applications related to the dynamics of chemical reactions. We take the bath-oscillator interaction into account in the framework of the Redfield theory. We obtain closed expressions for Redfield-tensor elements, which allows finding the explicit time dependence of the average vibrational energy. We show that the energy loss rate is temperature-independent, is the same for all wave packets, and depends only on the spectral function of the bath. We determine the degree of coherence of the vibrational motion as the trace of the density-matrix projection on a coherently moving wave packet. We find an explicit expression for the initial coherence loss rate, which depends on the wave packet width and is directly proportional to the intensity of the interaction with the bath. The minimum coherence loss rate is observed for a “coherent” Gaussian wave packet whose width corresponds to the oscillator frequency. We calculate the limiting value of the degree of coherence for large times and show that it is independent of the structural characteristics of the bath and depends only on the parameters of the wave packet and on the temperature. It is possible that residual coherence can be preserved at low temperatures. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 153, No. 1, pp. 130–144, October, 2007.     

Reflection of short rectangular pulses in the ideal string attached to strongly nonlinear oscillator

The system under consideration is ideal elastic string attached to strongly nonlinear oscillator with cubic nonlinearity by two different ways – immediately and by weak linear spring. The reflection of short rectangular pulses from the oscillator is accompanied by excitation of vibrations. The type of mode excited determines the amount of energy transferred to the oscillator as well as the structure of the reflected wave.     

Dynamical properties of a particle in a wave packet: Scaling invariance and boundary crisis

Some dynamical properties present in a problem concerning the acceleration of particles in a wave packet are studied. The dynamics of the model is described in terms of a two-dimensional area preserving map. We show that the phase space is mixed in the sense that there are regular and chaotic regions coexisting. We use a connection with the standard map in order to find the position of the first invariant spanning curve which borders the chaotic sea. We find that the position of the first invariant spanning curve increases as a power of the control parameter with the exponent 2/3. The standard deviation of the kinetic energy of an ensemble of initial conditions obeys a power law as a function of time, and saturates after some crossover. Scaling formalism is used in order to characterise the chaotic region close to the transition from integrability to nonintegrability and a relationship between the power law exponents is derived. The formalism can be applied in many different systems with mixed phase space. Then, dissipation is introduced into the model and therefore the property of area preservation is broken, and consequently attractors are observed. We show that after a small change of the dissipation, the chaotic attractor as well as its basin of attraction are destroyed, thus leading the system to experience a boundary crisis. The transient after the crisis follows a power law with exponent −2.     

Adaptive synchronization of a modified and uncertain chaotic Van der Pol-Duffing oscillator based on parameter identification

This paper considers the problem of adaptive synchronization and parameter identification of an uncertain chaotic oscillator. Using recent results on adaptive control, we design a controller which enables both the synchronization of two unidirectionally coupled modified Van der Pol-Duffing oscillators and the estimation of unknown parameters of the drive oscillator.

Inducing or suppressing chaos in a double-well Duffing oscillator by time delay feedback

The chaotic behavior of a double-well Duffing oscillator with both delayed displacement and velocity feedbacks under a harmonic excitation is investigated. By means of the Melnikov technique, necessary condition for onset of chaos resulting from homoclinic bifurcation is derived analytically. The analytical results reveal that for negative feedback the presence of time delay lowers the threshold and enlarges the possible chaotic domain in parameter space; while for positive feedback the presence of time delay enhances the threshold and reduces the possible chaotic domain in parameter space, which are further verified numerically through Poincare maps of the original system. Furthermore, the effect of the control gain parameters on the chaotic motion of the original system is studied in detail.
