Analytical and Numerical Studies for Chaotic Dynamics of a Duffing Oscillator with a Parametric Force

The chaotic dynamics of a Duffing oscillator with a parametric force is investigated. By using the direct perturbation technique, we analytically obtain the general solution of the lst-order equation. Through the boundedness condition of the general solution we get the famous Melnikov function predicting the onset of chaos. When the parametric and external forces are strong, numerical simulations show that increasing the amplitude of the parametric or external force can lead the system into chaos via period doubling.     

Quantum recurrences in driven power-law potentials

The recurrence phenomena of an initially well-localized wave packet are studied in periodically driven power-law potentials. For our general study we divide the potentials in two kinds, namely tightly binding and loosely binding potentials. In the presence of an external periodically modulating force, these potentials may exhibit classical and quantum chaos. We show that in the dynamics of a quantum wave packet in the modulated power law potentials quantum recurrences occur at various time scales. We develop general analytical relations for these times and discuss their parametric dependence.     

Nonlinear oscillations of the FitzHugh-Nagumo equations under combined external and two-frequency parametric excitations

The continuous FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN for short) model is transformed into modified van der Pol oscillator with asymmetry under external and two-frequency parametric excitations. At the first, the dependence of the solutions on a combined external and two-frequency parametric stimulus forcing is investigated. By using the multiple scale method, ranges of applied current and/or parametric forcing in which nonlinear oscillations are observed are described. Second, when the multiple scale method cannot be used, we numerically prove that in the modified van der Pol oscillator with asymmetry under external and two-frequency parametric excitations, chaos and periodic solution depending on the combination between different frequencies of the model should appear. We also show that the amplitude of the oscillations can be reduced or increased. To do this, we perform the study of the FHN model by choosing a range of parameters exhibiting Hopf bifurcation and two qualitative different regimes in phase portrait.     

Controlling of chaos by weak periodic perturbations in Duffing-van der Pol oscillator

This paper investigates the possibility of controlling horseshoe and asymptotic chaos in the Duffing-van der Pol oscillator by both periodic parametric perturbation and addition of second periodic force. Using Melnikov method the effect of weak perturbations on horseshoe chaos is studied. Parametric regimes where suppression of horseshoe occurs are predicted. Analytical predictions are demonstrated through direct numerical simulations. Starting from asymptotic chaos we show the recovery of periodic motion for a range of values of amplitude and frequency of the periodic perturbations. Interestingly, suppression of chaos is found in the parametric regimes where the Melnikov function does not change sign.     

Spatial Chaos of Bose-Einstein Condensates in a Cigar-Shaped Trap

The spatial chaos of Bose-Einstein condensates in a cigar-shaped trap is studied. For a system with a steady current, we construct the general solution of the 1st-order equation. From the boundedness condition of the general solution, we obtain the Melnikov function predicting the onset of chaos. The unpredictability of the system's distribution of atom density is also theoretically analyzed. For a 23Na system meeting the perturbation condition, numerical simulations show the existence of chaos, which is in accordance with our analytical results. Numerical simulations of a 87 Rb system dissatisfying the perturbation condition also demonstrate that there exists chaos in the system. The case without a current is also investigated.

Chaotic phase oscillation of a proton beam in a synchrotron

We investigate the chaotic phase oscillation of a proton beam in a cooler synchrotron. By using direct perturbation method, we construct the general solution of the 1st-order equation. It is demonstrated that the general solution is bounded under some initial and parameter conditions. From these conditions, we get a Melnikov function which predicts the existence of Smale-horseshoe chaos iff it has simple zeros. Our result under the 1st-order approximation is in good agreement with that in [H. Huang et al., Phys. Rev. E 48 (1993) 4678]. When the perturbation method is not suitable for the system, numerical simulation shows the system may present transient chaos before it goes into periodical oscillation; changing the damping parameter can result in or suppress stationary chaos.     

May chaos always be suppressed by parametric perturbations?

The problem of chaos suppression by parametric perturbations is considered. Despite the widespread opinion that chaotic behavior may be stabilized by perturbations of any system parameter, we construct a counterexample showing that this is not necessarily the case. In general, chaos suppression means that parametric perturbations should be applied within a set of parameters at which the system has a positive maximal Lyapunov exponent. Analyzing the known Duffing-Holmes model by a Melnikov method, we showed that chaotic dynamics cannot be suppressed by harmonic perturbations of a certain parameter, independently from the other parameter values. Thus, to stabilize the behavior of chaotic systems, the perturbation and parameters should be carefully chosen.

The elastic field of general-shape 3-D cracks

We extend here the Bilby-Eshelby approach of 2-D crack representation with dislocation pileups to treat 3-dimensional cracks of general geometry. Cracks of any specified external bounding 3-D contour under general loading conditions are represented by sets of parametric Somigliana loops that satisfy total (interaction, self, and external) force equilibrium. Loop positions are solved by using a time integration scheme till equilibrium is achieved. The local Burgers vector is suitably adjusted to be proportional to the local applied surface traction on the crack. The developed method is computationally advantageous, since accurate crack stress fields are obtained with very few concentric parametric loops that adjust to the external crack shape and the local force conditions. The method is tested against known elasticity solutions for 3-D cracks and found to be convergent with an increase in the number of pileup dislocation loops. The method is applied to the determination of the stress field around a 3-D Griffith crack under general loading and a grain boundary crack before and after branching.     

Effect of rectified and modulated sine forces on chaos in Duffing oscillator

The effect of rectified and modulated sine forces on the onset of horseshoe chaos is studied both analytically and numerically in the Duffing oscillator. With single force analytical threshold condition for the onset of horseshoe chaos is obtained using the Melnikov method. The Melnikov threshold curve is drawn in a parameter space. For the rectified sine wave, onset of cross-well asymptotic chaos is observed just above the Melnikov threshold curve. For the modulus of sine wave long time transient motion followed by a periodic attractor is realized. The possibility of controlling of chaos by the addition of second modulated force is then analyzed. Parametric regimes where suppression of horseshoe chaos occurs are predicted analytically and verified numerically. Interestingly, suppression of chaos is found in the parametric regimes where the Melnikov function does not change sign.     

Controlling chaos based on an adaptive nonlinear compensator mechanism

The control problems of chaotic systems are investigated in the presence of parametric uncertainty and persistent external disturbances based on nonlinear control theory. By using a designed nonlinear compensator mechanism, the system deterministic nonlinearity, parametric uncertainty and disturbance effect can be compensated effectively. The renowned chaotic Lorenz system subjected to parametric variations and external disturbances is studied as an illustrative example. From the Lyapunov stability theory, sufficient conditions for choosing control parameters to guarantee chaos control are derived. Several experiments are carried out, including parameter change experiments, set-point change experiments and disturbance experiments. Simulation results indicate that the chaotic motion can be regulated not only to steady states but also to any desired periodic orbits with great immunity to parametric variations and external disturbances.     

CHAOS, CHAOS CONTROL AND SYNCHRONIZATION OF A GYROSTAT SYSTEM

The dynamic behavior of a gyrostat system subjected to external disturbance is studied in this paper. By applying numerical results, phase diagrams, power spectrum, period-T maps, and Lyapunov exponents are presented to observe periodic and choatic motions. The effect of the parameters changed in the system can be found in the bifurcation and parametric diagrams. For global analysis, the basins of attraction of each attractor of the system are located by employing the modified interpolated cell mapping (MICM) method. Several methods, the delayed feedback control, the addition of constant torque, the addition of periodic force, the addition of periodic impulse torque, injection of dither signal control, adaptive control algorithm (ACA) control and bang-bang control are used to control chaos effectively. Finally, synchronization of chaos in the gyrostat system is studied.     

Chaotic Dynamics of a Josephson Junction with a Ratchet Potential and Current-Modulating Damping

The chaotic dynamics of a Josephson junction with a ratchet potential and current-modulating damping are studied. Under the first-order approximation, we construct the general solution of the first-order equation whose boundedness condition contains the famous Melnikov chaotic criterion. Based on the general solution, the incomputability and unpredictability of the system’s chaotic behavior are discussed. For the case beyond perturbation conditions, the evolution of stroboscopic Poincaré sections shows that the system undergoes a quasi-periodic transition to chaos with an increasing intensity of the rf-current. Through a suitable feedback controlling strategy, the chaos can be effectively suppressed and the intensity of the controller can vary in a large range. It is also found that the current between the two separated superconductors increases monotonously in some specific parameter spaces.     

On the ponderomotive force and the effect of loss reaction on parametric instability

In this paper, the growth rate, ponderomotive force and the exciting condition for parametric instability are derived by considering the loss reaction using a new method. On the basis of the hydrodynamic equations, we take the production and loss reactions in plasma into account to derive the coupling equations for the electron plasma oscillation and ion acoustic oscillation, and obtain the growth rate for the parametric instability, the ponderomotive force and the exciting condition. The result shows that (a) the production reaction has no effect on the parametric instability, and the effect of loss reaction on the parametric instability is a damping one, (b) the more intensive the external field or pump is, the larger the growth rate is, (c) there exist two modes of the ponderomotive force, i.e.\ the high frequency mode and the low frequency mode, and (d) when ponderomotive force counteracts the damping force, the oscillations become non-damping and non-driving. The ratio of the electron plasma oscillation to ion acoustic oscillation is independent of the loss reaction and the external field.

By applying numerical results, phase diagrams, power spectrum, Poincaré maps, and Lyapunov exponents are presented to observe periodic and chaotic motions. The effect of the parameter changes in the system can be found in the bifurcation and parametric diagrams. Finally, eight methods are used to control chaos effectively.

Chaotic Dynamics of a Periodically Modulated Josephson Junction

We study the chaotic dynamics of a periodically modulated Josephson junction with damping. The general solution of the first-order perturbed equation is constructed by using the direct perturbation technique. It is theoretically found that the boundedness conditions of the general solution contain the Melnikov chaotic criterion. When the perturbation conditions cannot be satisfied, numerical simulations demonstrate that the system can step into chaos through a period doubling route with the increase of the amplitude of the modulating term. Regulating specific parameters can effectively suppress the chaos.
