The linear and nonlinear stability analysis on the synchronization process is derived through the Whittaker method and the Floquet theory in addition to the multiple time scales method. A stability map displaying different dynamical states of the system is performed. Numerical simulation is carried out to support and to complement the accuracy of the analytical treatment.

Amplitude control of limit cycle in a van der Pol Duffing system

This paper applies washout filter technology to amplitude control of limit cycles emerging from Hopf bifurcation of the van der Pol--Duffing system. The controlling parameters for the appearance of Hopf bifurcation are given by the Routh--Hurwitz criteria. Noticeably, numerical simulation indicates that the controllers control the amplitude of limit cycles not only of the weakly nonlinear van der Pol--Duffing system but also of the strongly nonlinear van der Pol--Duffing system. In particular, the emergence of Hopf bifurcation can be controlled by a suitable choice of controlling parameters. Gain-amplitude curves of controlled systems are also drawn.     

Response control for the externally excited van der Pol oscillator with non-local feedback

A non-local control force is introduced in such a way to obtain a third-order nonlinear differential equation (jerk dynamics) and to control nonlinear vibrations in an externally excited van der Pol oscillator. Two first-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations governing the modulation of the amplitude and the phase of solutions are derived and subsequently the performance of the control strategy is investigated. Excitation amplitude–response and frequency–response curves are shown. In certain cases when the excitation amplitude is very low an approximate analytic solution corresponding to a modulated two-period quasi-periodic motion can be obtained for the uncontrolled system. Uncontrolled and controlled systems are compared and the appropriate choices for the feedback gains are found in order to reduce the amplitude peak of the response and to exclude the possibility of quasi-periodic motion. Numerical simulation confirms the validity of the new method.     

Analysis of modified Van der Pol’s oscillator using He’s parameter-expanding methods

In this work, a powerful analytical method, called He’s parameter-expanding methods (HPEM) is used to obtain the exact solutions of non-linear modified Van der Pol’s oscillator. The classical Van der Pol equation with delayed feedback and a modified equation where a delayed term provides the damping are considered. It is shown that one term in series expansions is sufficient to obtain a highly accurate solution, which is valid for the whole solution domain. Comparison of the obtained solution with those obtained using perturbation method shows that this method is effective and convenient to solve this problem. This method introduces a capable tool to solve this kind of non-linear problems.

A fuzzy crisis in a Duffing-van der Pol system

A crisis in a Duffing--van del Pol system with fuzzy uncertainties is studied by means of the fuzzy generalised cell mapping (FGCM) method. A crisis happens when two fuzzy attractors collide simultaneously with a fuzzy saddle on the basin boundary as the intensity of fuzzy noise reaches a critical point. The two fuzzy attractors merge discontinuously to form one large fuzzy attractor after a crisis. A fuzzy attractor is characterized by its global topology and membership function. A fuzzy saddle with a complicated pattern of several disjoint segments is observed in phase space. It leads to a discontinuous merging crisis of fuzzy attractors. We illustrate this crisis event by considering a fixed point under additive and multiplicative fuzzy noise. Such a crisis is fuzzy noise-induced effects which cannot be seen in deterministic systems.     

An efficient approach to solving fractional Van der Pol–Duffing jerk oscillator

The motive behind the current work is to perform the solution of the Van der Pol–Duffing jerk oscillator, involving fractional-order by the simplest method. An effective procedure has been introduced for executing the fractional-order by utilizing a new method without the perturbative approach. The approach depends on converting the fractional nonlinear oscillator to a linear oscillator with an integer order. A detailed solving process is given for the obtained oscillator with the traditional system.     

Sinusoidal synchronization of a Duffing oscillator with a chaotic pendulum

In this Letter, analytical conditions for the sinusoidal synchronization of the pendulum and Duffing oscillator are presented. From the analytical conditions, the invariant domain of such sinusoidal synchronization is determined, and the control parameter map of the synchronicity is achieved. Under specific parameters, numerical illustrations of the partial and full sinusoidal synchronizations of the controlled Duffing oscillator with the pendulum are carried out for a better understanding of such synchronization under specific function constraints. The methodology presented in this Letter is applicable to synchronizations with any specific function constraints.

Noise-resistant system of concealed information transfer on a chaotic delayed feedback oscillator with switchable delay time

We propose a system of concealed information transfer based on a delayed feedback oscillator with switchable chaotic regimes. The proposed system is analyzed numerically and experimentally. The dependences of the bit error rate during transmission of a binary information signal on the signal-to-noise ratio, attenuation of the signal in the communication channel, and the duration of the time interval during which a bit is transferred are constructed. The high stability of the system to noise and amplitude distortions of a signal in the communication channel is demonstrated.

A time delay control for a nonlinear dynamic beam under moving load

The bifurcation resulted from moving force may lead to instability for the system. Based on time delay feedback controller, a nonlinear beam under moving load is discussed in the case of the primary resonance and the 1/3 subharmonic resonance. The bifurcation may be eliminated or the bifurcation point's position may be changed. The perturbation method is used to obtain the bifurcation equation of the nonlinear dynamic system. The result indicates time delay feedback controller may work well on this system, but the selection of a proper time delay and its coefficient may depend on the engineering condition. This paper presents some theoretical results.

Instantaneous optimal method for vibration control of linear sampled-data systems with time delay in control

In an actively controlled system, time delay exists inevitably. Neglecting time delay may cause degradation of control performance or even induce instability to the dynamic system. In this paper, instantaneous optimal control method for vibration control of linear sampled-data systems with time delay in control is investigated. By a peculiar integral transformation, the first order state equation with time delay is transformed into the standard first order state equation, which contains no time delay. Then the optimal controller is designed based on the numerical algorithm of the regular fourth order Runge-Kutta method. Since the obtained controller contains integral term, which is not practical for control implementation, the numerical algorithm for this integral term is investigated too. Since the controller is deduced directly from the time-delay differential equation, the control method presented is prone to guarantee system stability. Thus the presented control method can be applicable to the case of large time delay. The performance of the control method is demonstrated by numerical simulation. Simulation results indicate that this control method is feasible and is an attractive strategy for dealing with the time delay in vibration control systems and is effective in suppressing maximum structural responses. Instability in structural responses may occur if the systems with time delay are controlled using the controller designed in the case of no time delay.
