Bifurcations of Heteroclinic Orbits

The search for traveling wave solutions of a semilinear diffusion partial differential equation can be reduced to the search for heteroclinic solutions of the ordinary differential equation ü − cu̇ + f(u) = 0, where c is a positive constant and f is a nonlinear function. A heteroclinic orbit is a solution u(t) such that u(t) → γ ₁ as t → −∞ and u(t) → γ ₂ as t → ∞ where γ ₁, γ ₂ are zeros of f. We study the existence of heteroclinic orbits under various assumptions on the nonlinear function f and their bifurcations as c is varied. Our arguments are geometric in nature and so we make only minimal smoothness assumptions. We only assume that f is continuous and that the equation has a unique solution to the initial value problem. Under these weaker smoothness conditions we reprove the classical result that for large c there is a unique positive heteroclinic orbit from 0 to 1 when f(0) = f(1) = 0 and f(u) > 0 for 0 < u < 1. When there are more zeros of f, there is the possibility of bifurcations of the heteroclinic orbit as c varies. We give a detailed analysis of the bifurcation of the heteroclinic orbits when f is zero at the five points −1 < −θ < 0 < θ < 1 and f is odd. The heteroclinic orbit that tends to 1 as t → ∞ starts at one of the three zeros, −θ, 0, θ as t → −∞. It hops back and forth among these three zeros an infinite number of times in a predictable sequence as c is varied.     

Dynamical Order in Systems of Coupled Noisy Oscillators

We investigate a dynamical order induced by coupling and/or noise in systems of coupled oscillators. The dynamical order is referred to a one-dimensional topological structure of the global attractor of the system in the context of random skew-product flows. We show that if the coupling is sufficiently strong, then the system exhibits one dimensional dynamics regardless of the strength of noise. If the coupling is weak, then it is shown numerically that the system also exhibits one dimensional dynamics provided the noise is sufficiently strong. We also show that for any coupling and any noise, the system has a unique rotation number and hence all the oscillators tend to oscillate with the same frequency eventually (frequency locking).

Innovation Systems by Nonlinear Networks

Cellular Neural Networks (CNNs) constitute a powerful paradigm for modeling complex systems. Innovation systems are complex systems in which small and medium enterprises play the role of simple units interacting with each other. In this paper, innovation systems based on CNN are investigated. It is shown how a model based on CNN can reproduce the main features of innovation systems and how this model can be generalized to include different aspects of the actors of the financial market.     

Nonlinear Dynamic Behaviour of Coupled Suspension Systems

A two degrees of freedom model of two coupled suspension systems characterised by piecewise linear stiffness has been studied. The system, representing a pantograph current collector head, is shown to be sensitive to changes in excitation and system parameters, possessing chaotic, periodic and quasiperiodic behaviour. The coupled system has a more irregular behaviour with larger motions than the uncoupled suspension system, indicating that the response from the uncoupled suspension system cannot be used as a worst case measure. Since small changes in system parameters and excitation affect the results drastically then wear and mounting as well as actual operating conditions are crucial factors for the system behaviour.     

Hopf Bifurcation in Symmetric Networks of Coupled Oscillators with Hysteresis

The standard approach to study symmetric Hopf bifurcation phenomenon is based on the usage of the equivariant singularity theory developed by M. Golubitsky et?al. In this paper, we present the equivariant degree theory based method which is complementary to the equivariant singularity approach. Our method allows systematic study of symmetric Hopf bifurcation problems in non-smooth/non-generic equivariant settings. The exposition is focused on a network of eight identical van der Pol oscillators with hysteresis memory, which are coupled in a cube-like configuration leading to S ₄-equivariance. The hysteresis memory is the source of non-smoothness and of the presence of an infinite dimensional phase space without local linear structure. Symmetric properties and multiplicity of bifurcating branches of periodic solutions are discussed in the context showing a direct link between the physical properties and the equivariant topology underlying this problem.     

Large-Time Behavior of Solutions to Hyperbolic-Elliptic Coupled Systems

We are concerned with the asymptotic behavior of a solution to the initial value problem for a system of hyperbolic conservation laws coupled with elliptic equations. This kind of problem was first considered in our previous paper. In the present paper, we generalize the previous results to a broad class of hyperbolic-elliptic coupled systems. Assuming the existence of the entropy function and the stability condition, we prove the global existence and the asymptotic decay of the solution for small initial data in a suitable Sobolev space. Then, it is shown that the solution is well approximated, for large time, by a solution to the corresponding hyperbolic-parabolic coupled system. The first result is proved by deriving a priori estimates through the standard energy method. The spectral analysis with the aid of the a priori estimate gives the second result.     

耦合故障转子系统中裂纹信息的诊断

旋转机械中,当裂纹与其他故障并存形成耦合故障时,裂纹信息往往被其他故障的信息所掩盖,从而难以从信号特征上诊断出裂纹故障。利用裂纹故障引起的等效外加弯矩特性,采用基于模型的故障诊断方法,可以诊断出耦合故障中的裂纹故障信息。以两种最常见的耦合故障—裂纹碰摩耦合故障、裂纹松动耦合故障为例,采用基于模型的诊断方法诊断耦合故障中的裂纹信息,取得了比较好的效果,并进行试验来验证理论结果。     

Asymptotic Behaviour of Coupled Systems in Discrete and Continuous Time

This paper investigates the asymptotic behaviour of solutions to certain infinite systems of coupled recurrence relations. In particular, we obtain a characterisation of those initial values which lead to a convergent solution, and for initial values satisfying a slightly stronger condition we obtain an optimal estimate on the rate of convergence. By establishing a connection with a related problem in continuous time, we are able to use this optimal estimate to improve the rate of convergence in the continuous setting obtained by the authors in a previous paper. We illustrate the power of the general approach by using it to study several concrete examples, both in continuous and in discrete time.     

Heteroclinic orbits in singular systems: A unifying approach

We consider singularly perturbed systems , such that=f(, _o, 0). _o ^m , has a heteroclinic orbitu(t). We construct a bifurcation functionG(, ) such that the singular system has a heteroclinic orbit if and only ifG(, )=0 has a solution=(). We also apply this result to recover some theorems that have been proved using different approaches.     

Exponentially Small Heteroclinic Breakdown in the Generic Hopf-Zero Singularity

In this paper we prove the breakdown of a heteroclinic connection in the analytic versal unfoldings of the generic Hopf-zero singularity in an open set of the parameter space. This heteroclinic orbit appears at any order if one performs the normal form around the origin, therefore it is a phenomenon “beyond all orders”. In this paper we provide a formula for the distance between the corresponding stable and unstable one-dimensional manifolds which is given by an exponentially small function in the perturbation parameter. Our result applies both for conservative and dissipative unfoldings.     

Geometry of Heteroclinic Cascades in Scalar Parabolic Differential Equations

We investigate the geometrical properties of the attractor for semilinear scalar parabolic PDEs on a bounded interval with Neumann boundary conditions. Using the nodal properties of the stationary solutions which are determined by an ordinary boundary value problem, we obtain crucial information about the long-time behavior for the full PDE. Especially, we prove an exact criterion for the intersection of strong-stable and strong-unstable manifolds in the finite dimensional Morse-Smale flow on the attractor.     

Limit Cycles Near Homoclinic and Heteroclinic Loops

In the study of near-Hamiltonian systems, the first order Melnikov function plays an important role. It can be used to study Hopf, homoclinic and heteroclinic bifurcations, and the so-called weak Hilbert’s 16th problem as well. The form of expansion of the first order Melnikov function at the Hamiltonian value h ₀ such that the curve defined by the equation H(x, y) = h ₀ contains a homoclinic loop has been known together with the first three coefficients of the expansion. In this paper, our main purpose is to give an explicit formula to compute the first four coefficients appeared in the expansion of the first order Melnikov function at the Hamiltonian value h ₀ such that the curve defined by the equation H(x, y) = h ₀ contains a homoclinic or heteroclinic loop, where the formula for the fourth coefficient is new, and to give a way to find limit cycles near the loops by using these coefficients. As an application, we consider polynomial perturbations of degree 4 of quadratic Hamiltonian systems with a heteroclinic loop, and find 3 limit cycles near the loop.

Heteroclinic cycles arising in generic unfoldings of nilpotent singularities

In this paper we study the existence of heteroclinic cycles in generic unfoldings of nilpotent singularities. Namely we prove that any nilpotent singularity of codimension four in \mathbbR⁴{\mathbb{R}^4} unfolds generically a bifurcation hypersurface of bifocal homoclinic orbits, that is, homoclinic orbits to equilibrium points with two pairs of complex eigenvalues. We also prove that any nilpotent singularity of codimension three in \mathbbR³{\mathbb{R}^3} unfolds generically a bifurcation curve of heteroclinic cycles between two saddle-focus equilibrium points with different stability indexes. Under generic assumptions these cycles imply the existence of homoclinic bifurcations. Homoclinic orbits to equilibrium points with complex eigenvalues are the simplest configurations which can explain the existence of complex dynamics as, for instance, strange attractors. The proof of the arising of these dynamics from a singularity is a very useful tool, particularly for applications.     

Heteroclinic bifurcations in completely liquid-filled spacecraft with flexible appendage

In this paper, the chaotic dynamics in an attitude transition maneuver of a rigid body with a completely liquid-filled cavity in going from minor axis to major axis spin under the influence of viscous damping and a small flexible appendage constrained to undergo only torsional vibration is investigated. The focus in this paper is on the way in which the dynamics of the liquid and flexible appendage vibration are coupled. The equations of motion are derived and then transformed into a form suitable for the application of Melnikov's method. Melnikov's integral is used to predict the transversal intersections of the stable and unstable manifolds for the perturbed system. An analytical criterion for chaotic motion is derived in terms of the system parameters. This criterion is evaluated for its significance to the design of spacecraft. The dependence of the onset of chaos on quantities such as body shape and magnitude of damping values, fuel fraction and frequency of flexible appendage vibration are investigated.     

Heteroclinic Cycles and Homoclinic Closures for Generic Diffeomorphisms

We prove some C ¹ generic results about orbit-connecting, in particular about heteroclinic cycles and homoclinic closures. As a consequence we obtain a three-ways C ¹ density theorem: Diffeomorphisms with either infinitely many weakly transitive components or a heterodimensional cycle are C ¹ dense in the complement of the C ¹ closure of Axiom A and no-cycle diffeomorphisms.     

Passive Transient Wave Confinement Due to Nonlinear Joints in Coupled Flexible Systems

We numerically study transient wave propagation in linear flexiblewaveguides coupled by means of nonlinear backlash joints. No structuraldisorder is assumed to exist in the repetitive systems underconsideration. Early-time spatial confinement of the wave motion due tothe backlashes is detected for certain values of the systems'parameters. A discussion of the causes of this nonlinear wavelocalization is given. A transient confinement indicator is establishedand employed for the design optimization of the backlash joints foroptimum energy confinement in the directly forced subsystem. Theoptimization study reveals that strong passive motion confinement canoccur, even when strong coupling between subsystems exists,complementing previous studies in the literature where nonlinearlocalization due to weak subsystem coupling was investigated. Thepresent results have applicability to designs of joints for practicallarge-scale repetitive space structures.
