Homoclinic Saddle-Node Bifurcations in Singularly Perturbed Systems

In this paper we study the creation of homoclinic orbits by saddle-node bifurcations. Inspired on similar phenomena appearing in the analysis of so-called localized structures in modulation or amplitude equations, we consider a family of nearly integrable, singularly perturbed three dimensional vector fields with two bifurcation parameters a and b. The O() perturbation destroys a manifold consisting of a family of integrable homoclinic orbits: it breaks open into two manifolds, W ^s() and W ^u(), the stable and unstable manifolds of a slow manifold . Homoclinic orbits to correspond to intersections W ^s()W ^u(); W ^s()W ^u()= for a<a*, a pair of 1-pulse homoclinic orbits emerges as first intersection of W ^s() and W ^u() as a>a*. The bifurcation at a=a* is followed by a sequence of nearby, O( ²(log)²) close, homoclinic saddle-node bifurcations at which pairs of N-pulse homoclinic orbits are created (these orbits make N circuits through the fast field). The second parameter b distinguishes between two significantly different cases: in the cooperating (respectively counteracting) case the averaged effect of the fast field is in the same (respectively opposite) direction as the slow flow on . The structure of W ^s()W ^u() becomes highly complicated in the counteracting case: we show the existence of many new types of sometimes exponentially close homoclinic saddle-node bifurcations. The analysis in this paper is mainly of a geometrical nature.     

Global Bifurcations in Parametrically Excited Systems with Zero-to-One Internal Resonance

In this work we study the existence of Silnikov homoclinicorbits in the averaged equations representing the modal interactionsbetween two modes with zero-to-one internal resonance. The fast mode isparametrically excited near its resonance frequency by a periodicforcing. The slow mode is coupled to the fast mode when the amplitude ofthe fast mode reaches a critical value so that the equilibrium of theslow mode loses stability. Using the analytical solutions of anunperturbed integrable Hamiltonian system, we evaluate a generalizedMelnikov function which measures the separation of the stable and theunstable manifolds of an annulus containing the resonance band of thefast mode. This Melnikov function is used together with the informationof the resonances of the fast mode to predict the region of physicalparameters for the existence of Silnikov homoclinic orbits.

Chaos in a pendulum with feedback control

We study chaotic dynamics of a pendulum subjected to linear feedback control with periodic desired motions. The pendulum is assumed to be driven by a servo-motor with small inductance, so that the feedback control system reduces to a periodic perturbation of a planar Hamiltonian system. This Hamiltonian system can possess multiple saddle points with non-transverse homoclinic and/or heteroclinic orbits. Using Melnikov's method, we obtain criteria for the existence of chaos in the pendulum motion. The computation of the Melnikov functions is performed by a numerical method. Several numerical examples are given and the theoretical predictions are compared with numerical simulation results for the behavior of invariant manifolds.

Vibration analysis of a non-linear parametrically andself-excited system of two degrees of freedom was carried out. The modelcontains two van der Pol oscillators coupled by a linear spring with a aperiodically changing stiffness of the Mathieu type. By means of amultiple-scales method, the existence and stability of periodicsolutions close to the main parametric resonances have beeninvestigated. Bifurcations of the system and regions of chaoticsolutions have been found. The possibility of the appearance ofhyperchaos has also been discussed and an example of such solution hasbeen shown.     

Periodic Response and Chaos in Nonlinear Systems with Parametric Excitation and Time Delay

In this paper, the periodic motions of a nonlinear system with quadratic,cubic, and parametrically excited stiffness terms and with time-delayterms are obtained by the incremental harmonic balance (IHB) method. Theelements of the Jacobian matrix and residue vector arising in the IHBformulation are derived in closed form. A mechanism model representingthe one-mode oscillation of beams and plates is considered as anexample. A path-following algorithm with an arc-length parametriccontinuation procedure is used to obtain the response diagrams. Thesystem also exhibits chaotic motion through a cascade of period-doublingbifurcations, which is characterized by phase planes, Poincaré sectionsand Lyapunov exponents. The interpolated cell mapping (ICM) procedure isused to obtain the initial condition map corresponding to multiplesteady-state solutions.     

Chaos of liquid surface waves in a vessel under vertical excitation with slowly modulated amplitude

Free surface waves in a cylinder of liquid under vertical excitation with slowly modulated amplitude are investigated in the current paper. It is shown by both theoretical analysis and numerical simulation that chaos may occur even for a single mode with modulation which can be used to explain Gollub and Meyer's experiment. The implied resonant mechanism accounting for this phenomenon is further elucidated.     

A Direct Approach to Homoclinic Orbits in the Fast Dynamics of Singularly Perturbed Systems

Homoclinic orbits in the fast dynamics of singular perturbation problems are usually analyzed by a combination of Fenichel's invariant manifold theory with general transversality arguments (see Ref. 29 and the Exchange Lemma in Ref. 16). In this paper an alternative direct approach is developed which uses a two-time scaling and a contraction argument in exponentially weighted spaces. Homoclinic orbits with one last transition are treated and it is shown how -expansions can be extracted rigorously from this approach. The result is applied to a singularity perturbed Bogdanov point in the FitzHugh–Nagumo system.Supported by DFG Schwerpunktprogramm Ergodentheorie, Analysis und effiziente Simulation dynamischer Systeme..     

Global bifurcations and chaos in a Van der Pol-Duffing-Mathieu system with three-well potential oscillator

Semi-analytical and semi-numerical method is used to investigate the global bifurcations and chaos in the nonlinear system of a Van der Pol-Duffing-Mathieu oscillator. Semi-analytical and semi-numerical method means that the autonomous system, called Van der Pol-Duffing system, is analytically studied to draw all global bifurcations diagrams in parameter space. These diagrams are called basic bifurcation diagrams. Then fixing parameter in every space and taking parametrically excited amplitude as a bifurcation parameter, we can observe the evolution from a basic bifurcation diagram to chaotic pattern by numerical methods.

Bursting phenomenon in a piecewise mechanical system with parameter perturbation in stiffness

In this paper the existence condition and generation mechanism of the possible bursting phenomenon in a piecewise mechanical system with different time scales are studied. As an example of mechanical systems, a piecewise linear oscillator with parameter perturbation in stiffness and subject to external excitation is examined. The order gaps between the time scales are considered in the model, which are related to the periodic excitation and the changing rates of the variables. The focus-type periodic bursting oscillation with two time scales is presented, and the corresponding generation mechanism is revealed by using slow–fast analysis method. Furthermore, the analytical solution of piecewise linear subsystem as well as the stability condition of the fast subsystem are explored to explain the transition of bursting behaviors coming from the variation of intrinsic parameter and external excitation. The results about bursting phenomenon and its generation mechanism would provide important theoretical basis on the mechanical manufacturing and engineering practice.     

Global dynamical behavior of a three-body system with flexible connection in the gravitational field

Summary In this paper, the global behavior of relative equilibrium states of a three-body satellite with flexible connection under the action of the gravitational torque is studied. With geometric method, the conditions of existence of nontrivial solutions to the relative equilibrium equations are determined. By using reduction method and singularity theory, the conditions of occurrence of bifurcation from trivial solutions are derived, which agree with the existence conditions of nontrivial solutions, and the bifurcation is proved to be pitchfork-bifurcation. The Liapunov stability of each equilibrium state is considered, and a stability diagram in terms of system parameters is presented. Received 10 March 1998; accepted for publication 21 July 1998
