Resonant parametric perturbations of the Hopf bifurcation

The effects of periodic parametric perturbations on a system undergoing Hopf bifurcation are studied in detail. Of primary interest is the case of resonance between the Hopf bifurcation frequency and the perturbation frequency. Method of alternative problems is used to obtain the small nonlinear periodic solutions. It is shown that for a certain range of parameters, the Hopf solution is modified to give rise to jump response as well as isolated solutions. For some parameter combinations, stable solutions can get unstable and may bifurcate into aperiodic or amplitude modulated motions.

Stochastic resonance induced by novel random transitions of motion of FitzHugh–Nagumo neuron model

In contrast to the previous studies which have dealt with stochastic resonance induced by random transitions of system motion between two coexisting limit cycle attractors in the FitzHugh–Nagumo (FHN) neuron model after Hopf bifurcation and which have dealt with the phenomenon of stochastic resonance induced by external noise when the model with periodic input has only one attractor before Hopf bifurcation, in this paper we have focused our attention on stochastic resonance (SR) induced by a novel transition behavior, the transitions of motion of the model among one attractor on the left side of bifurcation point and two attractors on the right side of bifurcation point under the perturbation of noise. The results of research show: since one bifurcation of transition from one to two limit cycle attractors and the other bifurcation of transition from two to one limit cycle attractors occur in turn besides Hopf bifurcation, the novel transitions of motion of the model occur when bifurcation parameter is perturbed by weak internal noise; the bifurcation point of the model may stochastically slightly shift to the left or right when FHN neuron model is perturbed by external Gaussian distributed white noise, and then the novel transitions of system motion also occur under the perturbation of external noise; the novel transitions could induce SR alone, and when the novel transitions of motion of the model and the traditional transitions between two coexisting limit cycle attractors after bifurcation occur in the same process the SR also may occur with complicated behaviors types; the mechanism of SR induced by external noise when FHN neuron model with periodic input has only one attractor before Hopf bifurcation is related to this kind of novel transition mentioned above.     

Numerical solution of Hopf bifurcation problems

We present two numerical methods for the solution of Hopf bifurcation problems involving ordinary differential equations. The first one consists in a discretization of the continuous problem by means of shooting or multiple shooting methods. Thus a finite-dimensional bifurcation problem of special structure is obtained. It may be treated by appropriate iterative algorithms. The second approach transforms the Hopf bifurcation problem into a regular nonlinear boundary value problem of higher dimension which depends on a perturbation parameter ?. It has isolated solutions in the ?-domain of interest, so that conventional discretization methods can be applied. We also consider a concrete Hopf bifurcation problem, a biological feedback inhibition control system. Both methods are applied to it successfully.     

Bifurcation analysis of a Leslie-type predator–prey system with simplified Holling type IV functional response and strong Allee effect on prey

In this paper, a Leslie-type predator–prey system with simplified Holling type IV functional response and strong Allee effect on prey is proposed. The dissipativity of the system and the existence of all possible equilibria are investigated. The investigation emphasizes the exploring of bifurcation. It is shown that the system exists several non-hyperbolic positive equilibria, such as a weak focus of multiplicities one and two, (degenerate) saddle–nodes and Bogdanov–Takens singularities (cusp case) of codimensions 2 and 3. At these equilibria, it is proved that the system undergoes various kinds of bifurcations, such as saddle–node bifurcation, Hopf bifurcation, degenerate Hopf bifurcation and Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation of codimensions 2 and 3. With the parameters selected properly, there exhibits a limit cycle, a homoclinic loop, two limit cycles, a semistable limit cycle, or the simultaneous occurrence of a homoclinic loop and a limit cycle in the system. Moreover, it is also proved that the system has a cusp of codimension at least 4. Hence, there may exist three limit cycles generated from Hopf bifurcation of codimension 3. Numerical simulations are done to support the theoretical results.     

Analysis of effect of random perturbation on dynamic response of gear transmission system

In order to investigate the effects of random perturbation of a low-frequency excitation caused by torque fluctuations, gear damping ratio, gear backlash, meshing frequency and meshing stiffness, the random dynamic model of a single pair of three-degree-of-freedom spur gear transmission system is established. With gear meshing frequency changing, the dynamic characteristics of the gear transmission system were analyzed by bifurcation diagram, phase diagram, time course diagram and Poincaré map of the system. The effects of random perturbation caused by a low-frequency excitation caused by torque fluctuations, gear damping ratio, gear backlash, meshing frequency and meshing stiffness were comparative analyzed. Numerical simulation shows that the gear transmission system with nonlinear clearance exists rich period-doubling bifurcation phenomenon. With the increasing of the gear meshing frequency, gear transmission system will be from the chaotic motion to periodic motion by inverse period-doubling bifurcation. The effect of the meshing frequency random perturbation on the gear transmission system movement is largest. On the contrary, the effect of the meshing stiffness random perturbation on the system is minimum.     

Modeling and analysis of recurrent autoimmune disease

In this paper, we consider dynamics and bifurcations in two HIV models with cell-to-cell interaction. The difference between the two models lies in the inclusion or omission of the effect of involvement. Particular attention is focused on the effects due to the cell-to-cell transmission and the effect of the involvement. We investigate the local and global stability of equilibria of the two models and give a comparison. We derive the existence condition for Hopf bifurcation and prove no Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation in this system. In particular, we show that the system exhibits the recurrence phenomenon, yielding complex dynamical behavior. It is also shown that the effect of the involvement is the main cause of the periodic symptoms in HIV or malaria disease. Moreover, it is shown that the increase of cell-to-cell interaction may be the main factor causing Hopf bifurcation to disappear, and thus eliminating oscillation behavior. Finally, numerical simulations are present to demonstrate our theoretical results.     

Hopf bifurcation of the third-order Hénon system based on an explicit criterion

In this paper, Hopf bifurcation of the third-order Hénon system is studied via a simple explicit criterion, which is derived from the Schur–Cohn Criterion. Moreover stability of Hopf bifurcation is also investigated by using the normal form method and center manifold theory for the discrete time system developed by Kuznetsov. Test results containing simulations and circuit measurement are shown to demonstrate that the criterion is correct and feasible.

Exploring action potential initiation in neurons exposed to DC electric fields through dynamical analysis of conductance-based model

Noninvasive direct current (DC) electric stimulation of central nervous system is today a promising therapeutic option to alleviate the symptoms of a number of neurological disorders. Despite widespread use of this noninvasive brain modulation technique, a generalizable explanation of its biophysical basis has not been described which seriously restricts its application and development. This paper investigated the dynamical behaviors of Hodgkin’s three classes of neurons exposed to DC electric field based on a conductance-based neuron model. With phase plane and bifurcation analysis, the different responses of each class of neuron to the same stimulation are shown to derive from distinct spike initiating dynamics. Under the effects of negative DC electric field, class 1 neuron generates repetitive spike through a saddle-node on invariant circle (SNIC) bifurcation, while it ceases this repetitive behavior through a Hopf bifurcation; Class 2 neuron generates repetitive spike through a Hopf bifurcation, meanwhile it ceases this repetitive behavior also by a Hopf bifurcation; Class 3 neuron can generate single spike through a quasi-separatrix-crossing (QSC) at first, then it generates repetitive spike through a Hopf bifurcation, while it ceases this repetitive behavior through a SNIC bifurcation. Furthermore, three classes of neurons’ spiking frequency f–electric field E (f–E) curves all have parabolic shape. Our results highlight the effects of external DC electric field on neuronal activity from the biophysical modeling point of view. It can contribute to the application and development of noninvasive DC brain modulation technique.

Hopf-Bifurkation bei Lasern

The semiclassical equations describing a ring laser show two successive bifurcations, one stationary and one Hopf bifurcation. This phenomenon is analyzed mathematically. The initial value problem for the laser equations and the stability of the stationary solutions are discussed in detail. The transition to ultrashort laser pulses is shown to be a Hopf bifurcation. The direction of the bifurcation is determined for a numerical example. It turns out that it depends on the parameters of the system.     

Hopf bifurcation in doubly fed induction generator under vector control

This paper first presents the Hopf bifurcation phenomena of a vector-controlled doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) which is a competitive choice in wind power industry. Using three-phase back-to-back pulse-width-modulated (PWM) converters, DFIG can keep stator frequency constant under variable rotor speed and provide independent control of active and reactive power output. Main results are illustrated by “exact” cycle-by-cycle simulations. The detailed mathematical model of the closed-loop system is derived and used to analyze the observed bifurcation phenomena. The loci of the Jacobian’s eigenvalues are computed and the analysis shows that the system loses stability via a Hopf bifurcation. Moreover, the boundaries of Hopf bifurcation are also given to facilitate the selection of practical parameters for guaranteeing stable operation.

Homoclinic Tangles, Phase Locking, and Chaos in a Two-Frequency Perturbation of Duffing's Equation

Summary. We study a two-frequency perturbation of Duffing's equation. When the perturbation is small, this system has a normally hyperbolic invariant torus which may be subjected to phase locking. Applying a version of Melnikov's method for multifrequency systems, we detect the occurrence of transverse intersection between the stable and unstable manifolds of the invariant torus. We show that if the invariant torus is not subjected to phase locking, then such a transverse intersection yields chaotic dynamics. When the invariant torus is subjected to phase locking, the situation is different. In this case, there exist two periodic orbits which are created in a saddle-node bifurcation. Using another version of Melnikov's method for slowly varying oscillators, we also give conditions under which the stable and unstable manifolds of the periodic orbits intersect transversely and hence chaotic dynamics may occur. Our results reveal that when the invariant torus is subjected to phase locking, chaotic dynamics resulting from transverse intersection between its stable and unstable manifolds may be interrupted.

Hopf bifurcation in a delayed reaction–diffusion–advection population model

In this paper, we investigate a reaction–diffusion–advection model with time delay effect. The stability/instability of the spatially nonhomogeneous positive steady state and the associated Hopf bifurcation are investigated when the given parameter of the model is near the principle eigenvalue of an elliptic operator. Our results imply that time delay can make the spatially nonhomogeneous positive steady state unstable for a reaction–diffusion–advection model, and the model can exhibit oscillatory pattern through Hopf bifurcation. The effect of advection on Hopf bifurcation values is also considered, and our results suggest that Hopf bifurcation is more likely to occur when the advection rate increases.     

Hopf bifurcation in the Lorenz-type chaotic system

In this paper, we analyze dynamical behaviors of the Lorenz-type system via the complementary-cluster energy-barrier criterion. Moreover the Hopf bifurcation of this system is also investigated by means of the first Lyapunov coefficient. As a consequence, it is proved that this system has three Hopf bifurcation points, at which these Hopf bifurcations are nondegenerate and supercritical.     

Delayed feedback-based bifurcation control in an Internet congestion model

In this paper, the control of Hopf bifurcation in an Internet congestion model with a single link accessed by a single source is presented. By choosing the gain parameter as a bifurcation parameter, it is found that the system without control cannot guarantee a stationary sending rate. Furthermore, Hopf bifurcation occurs when the positive gain parameter of the system exceeds a critical value. For Internet congestion model, a control model based on delayed feedback is proposed and analyzed for delaying the onset of undesirable Hopf bifurcation. Numerical simulations are given to justify the validity of delayed feedback controller in bifurcation control.
