Codimension two bifurcation and chaos of a vibro-impact forming machine associated with 1：2 resonance case

A vibro-impact forming machine with double masses is considered. The components of the vibrating system collide with each other. Such models play an important role in the studies of dynamics of mechanical systems with impacting components. The Poincaré section associated with the state of the impact-forming system, just immediately after the impact, is chosen, and the period n single-impact motion and its disturbed map are derived analytically. A center manifold theorem technique is applied to reduce the Poincaré map to a two-dimensional map, and the normal form map associated with codimension two bifurcation of 1:2 resonance is obtained. Unfolding of the normal form map is analyzed. Dynamical behavior of the impact-forming system, near the point of codimension two bifurcation, is investigated by using qualitative analyses and numerical simulation. Near the point of codimension two bifurcation there exists not only Neimark-Sacker bifurcation associated with period one single-impact motion, but also Neimark-Sacker bifurcation of period two double-impact motion. Transition of different forms of fixed points of single-impact periodic orbits, near the bifurcation point, is demonstrated, and different routes from periodic impact motions to chaos are also discussed.

Codimension two bifurcation of a vibro-bounce system

A three-degree-of-freedom vibro-bounce system is considered. The disturbed map of period one single-impact motion is derived analytically. A center manifold theorem technique is applied to reduce the Poincaré map to a three-dimensional one, and the normal form map associated with Hopf-flip bifurcation is obtained. Dynamical behavior of the system, near the point of codimension two bifurcation, is investigated by using qualitative analysis and numerical simulation. It is found that near the point of Hopf-flip bifurcation there exists not only Hopf bifurcation of period one single-impact motion, but also Hopf bifurcation of period two double-impact motion. The results from simulation show that there exists an interesting torus doubling bifurcation near the codimension two bifurcation. The torus doubling bifurcation makes the quasi-periodic attractor associated with period one single-impact motion transform to the other quasi-periodic attractor represented by two attracting closed circles. The torus bifurcation is qualitatively different from the typical torus doubling bifurcation occurring in the vibro-impact systems. Different routes from period one single-impact motion to chaos are observed by numerical simulation.The project supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (10172042, 50475109) and the Natural Science Foundation of Gansu Province Government of China (ZS-031-A25-007-Z (key item))

一类碰撞振动系统在内伊马克沙克-音叉分岔点附近的局部两参数动力学

考虑一类具有对称性的三自由度碰撞振动系统.系统的庞加莱映射在一定条件下存在对称不动点,对应于系统的对称周期运动.根据对称性导出庞加莱映射P是另外一个隐式虚拟映射Q的二次迭代.推导了庞加莱映射对称不动点的解析表达式.根据映射不动点的稳定性及分岔理论,映射P的对称不动点发生内伊马克沙克-音叉(Neimark--Saker-pitchfork)分岔对应于映射Q发生内伊马克沙克-倍化(Neimark--Sakerflip)分岔.利用隐式虚拟映射Q,通过对范式作两参数开折分析,研究了映射P的对称不动点在内伊马克沙克-音叉分岔点附近的局部动力学行为.碰撞振动系统在这个余维二分岔点附近的局部动力学行为可能表现为投影后的庞加莱截面上的单一对称不动点、一对共轭不动点、单一对称拟周期吸引子以及一对共轭拟周期吸引子.数值模拟得到了内伊马克沙克-音叉分岔点附近的各种可能情况.内伊马克沙克-分岔和音叉分岔互相作用可能产生新的结果:对称不动点虽然首先分岔为两个共轭不动点,但是这两个共轭不动点是不稳定的,最终收敛到同一个对称拟周期吸引子.

Determining Lyapunov spectrum and Lyapunov dimension based on the Poincaré map in a vibro-impact system

We develop a method to compute the Lyapunov spectrum and Lyapunov dimension, which is effective for both symmetric and unsymmetric vibro-impact systems. The Poincaré section is chosen at the moment after impacting, and the six-dimensional Poincaré map is established. The time between two consecutive impacts is determined by the initial conditions and the impact condition, hence the Poincaré map is an implicit map. The Poincaré map is used to calculate all the Lyapunov exponents and the Lyapunov dimension. By numerical simulations, the attractors are represented in the projected Poincaré section, and the Lyapunov spectrum is obtained. The multi-degree-of-freedom vibro-impact system may exhibit complex quasi-periodic attractors, which can be characterized by the Lyapunov dimension.     

Periodic-impact motions and bifurcations in dynamics of a plastic impact oscillator with a frictional slider

A two-degree-of-freedom plastic impact oscillator with a frictional slider is considered. Dynamics of the plastic impact oscillator are analyzed by a three-dimensional map, which describes free flight and sticking solutions of two masses of the system, between impacts, supplemented by transition conditions at the instants of impacts. Piecewise property and singularity are found to exist in the impact Poincaré map. The piecewise property of the map is caused by the transitions of free flight and sticking motions of two masses immediately after the impact, and the singularity of the map is generated via the grazing contact of two masses immediately before the impact. These properties of the map have been shown to exhibit particular types of sliding and grazing bifurcations of periodic-impact motions under parameter variation. The influence of piecewise property, grazing singularity and parameter variation on dynamics of the vibro-impact system is analyzed. The global bifurcation diagrams of before-impact velocity as a function of the excitation frequency are plotted to predict much of the qualitative behavior of the system. The global bifurcations of period-N single-impact motions of the plastic impact oscillator are found to exhibit extensive and systematic characteristics. Dynamics of the impact oscillator, in the elastic impact case, is also analyzed. This type of impact is modelled by using the conditions of conservation of momentum and an instantaneous coefficient of restitution rule. The differences in periodic-impact motions and bifurcations are found by making a comparison between dynamic behaviors of the plastic and elastic impact oscillators with a frictional slider. The best progression of the plastic impact oscillator is found to occur in period-1 single-impact sticking motion with large impact velocity. The largest progression of the elastic impact oscillator occurs in period-1 multi-impact motion. The simulative results show that the plastic impact feature for the impact-progressive oscillator is of a considerable importance in minimizing adverse effects such as high noise levels, wear and tear caused by impacts.     

Hopf-flip bifurcation of high dimensional maps and application to vibro-impact systems

This paper addresses the problem of Hopf-flip bifurcation of high dimensional maps. Using the center manifold theorem, we obtain a three dimensional reduced map through the projection technique. The reduced map is further transformed into its normal form whose coefficients are determined by that of the original system. The dynamics of the map near the Hopf-flip bifurcation point is approximated by a so called ‘‘time-2τ² map’’ of a planar autonomous differential equation. It is shown that high dimensional maps may result in cycles of period two, tori T¹ (Hopf invariant circles), tori 2T¹ and tori 2T² depending both on how the critical eigenvalues pass the unit circle and on the signs of resonant terms’ coefficients. A two-degree-of-freedom vibro-impact system is given as an example to show how the procedure of this paper works. It reveals that through Hopf-flip bifurcations, periodic motions may lead directly to different types of motion, such as subharmonic motions, quasi-periodic motions, motions on high dimensional tori and even to chaotic motions depending both on change in direction of the parameter vector and on the nonlinear terms of the first three orders.The project supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (10472096)The English text was polished by Ron Marshall.     

RESEARCH IN STABILITY OF PERIODIC MOTION,BIFURCATION AND CHAOS IN A VIBRATORY SYSTEM WITH A CLEARANCE

A two-degrees-of-freedom vibratory system with a clearance or gap is under consideration based on the Poincard map. Stability and local bifurcation of the period-one doubleimpact symmetrical motion of the system are analyzed by using the equation of map. The routes from periodic impact motions to chaos, via pitchfork bifurcation, period-doubling bifurcation and grazing bifurcation, are studied by numerical simulation. Under suitable system parameter conditions, Neimark-Sacker bifurcations associated with periodic impact motion can occur in the two-degrees-of-freedom vibro-impact system.

Dynamics of a plastic-impact system with oscillatory and progressive motions

A mathematical model is developed to describe oscillatory and progressive motions in dynamics of a plastic impact oscillator with a frictional slider. Dynamics of the impact oscillator is analyzed by a five-dimensional map, which describes free flight and sticking solutions of two masses of the system, between impacts, supplemented by transition conditions at the instants of impacts. Piecewise property and singularity are found to exist in the Poincaré map. The piecewise property is caused by the transitions of free flight and sticking motions of impacting masses immediately after the impact, and the singularity of the map is generated via the grazing contact of impacting masses immediately before the impact. These properties of the map have been shown to exhibit particular types of sliding and grazing bifurcations of periodic-impact motions under parameter variation. The influence of piecewise property, grazing singularities and various parameters on dynamics of the vibro-impact system is analyzed. The global bifurcation diagrams for before-impact velocity versus forcing frequency are plotted to predict much of the qualitative behavior of the system. The global bifurcations of period-n single-impact motions of the plastic-impact oscillator are found to exhibit extensive and systematic characteristics.     

Order reduction and nonlinear behaviors of a continuous rotor system

An isotropic flexible shaft, acted by nonlinear fluid-induced forces generated from oil-lubricated journal bearings and hydrodynamic seal, is considered in this paper. Dimension reductions of the rotor system were carried out by both the standard Galerkin method and the nonlinear Galerkin method. Numerical simulations provide bifurcation diagrams, spectrum cascade, orbits of the disk center and Poincaré maps, to demonstrate the dynamical behaviors of the system. The results reveal transitions, or bifurcations, of the rotor whirl from being synchronous to non-synchronous as the unstable speed is exceeded. The non-synchronous oil/seal whirl is a quasi-periodic motion. In the regime of quasi-periodic motion, the “windows” of multi-periodic motion were found. The investigation shows that the nonlinear Galerkin method has an advantage over the standard one with the same order of truncations, because the influences of higher modes are considered by the former.

Bifurcation phenomena in non-smooth dynamical systems

The aim of the paper is to give an overview of bifurcation phenomena which are typical for non-smooth dynamical systems. A small number of well-chosen examples of various kinds of non-smooth systems will be presented, followed by a discussion of the bifurcation phenomena in hand and a brief introduction to the mathematical tools which have been developed to study these phenomena. The bifurcations of equilibria in two planar non-smooth continuous systems are analysed by using a generalised Jacobian matrix. A mechanical example of a non-autonomous Filippov system, belonging to the class of differential inclusions, is studied and shows a number of remarkable discontinuous bifurcations of periodic solutions. A generalisation of the Floquet theory is introduced which explains bifurcation phenomena in differential inclusions. Lastly, the dynamics of the Woodpecker Toy is analysed with a one-dimensional Poincaré map method. The dynamics is greatly influenced by simultaneous impacts which cause discontinuous bifurcations.     

Elucidating the escape dynamics of the four hill potential

This paper treads discontinuous bifurcation in piecewise smooth systems of Filippov type. These bifurcations occur when a fixed point or a periodic orbit crosses with the border between two regions of smooth behavior. A detailed analysis of generalization Poincaré map and monodromy matrix which are related shows that subfamily of system with invariant cone-like objects is foliated by periodic orbits and determines its stability. In addition, we introduce a theoretical framework for analyzing 3D perturbed nonlinear piecewise smooth systems and give necessary conditions so that different types of bifurcations occur. The analysis identifies criteria for the existence of a novel bifurcation based on sensitively the location of the return map. Moreover, the piecewise smooth Melnikov function and sufficient conditions of the existence of the periodic orbits for nonlinear perturbed system are explicitly obtained.     

Detecting unstable periodic orbits and unstable quasiperiodic orbits in vibro-impact systems

In this paper, unstable dynamics is considered for the models of vibro-impact systems with linear differential equations coupled to an impact map. To provide a skeleton for the organization of chaotic attractors, we propose a method for detecting unstable periodic orbits embedded in chaotic attractors through a combination of unconstrained optimization technique and Poincaré map. Three numerical examples from different vibro-impact models demonstrate that the strategy can efficiently detect unstable periodic orbits in chaotic attractors. In order to explore the mechanism responsible for the creation of multi-dimensional tori attractors, we also present another method to detect unstable quasiperiodic orbits embedded multi-dimensional tori attractors by examining a specially transient time series. The upper bound and lower bound of the transient time series (in the Poincaré map) can be obtained by analyzing transient Lyapunov exponent and transient Lyapunov dimension. Some examples verify the effectiveness of the numerical algorithm.     

An Alternative Approach to Study Bifurcation from a Limit Cycle in Periodically Perturbed Autonomous Systems

The goal of this paper is to present a new method to prove bifurcation of a branch of asymptotically stable periodic solutions of a T-periodically perturbed autonomous system from a T-periodic limit cycle of the autonomous unperturbed system. The method is based on a linear scaling of the state variables to convert, under suitable conditions, the singular Poincaré map (with two singularity conditions) associated to the perturbed autonomous system into an equivalent non-singular equation to which the classical implicit function theorem applies directly. As a result we obtain the existence of a unique branch of T-periodic solutions (usually found for bifurcations of co-dimension 2) as well as a relevant property of the spectrum of their derivatives. Finally, by a suitable representation formula of the classical Malkin bifurcation function, we show that our conditions are equivalent to the existence of a non-degenerate simple zero of the Malkin function. The novelty of the method is that it permits to solve the problem without explicit reduction of the dimension of the state space as it is usually done in the literature by the Lyapunov–Schmidt method.
