Bifurcation Control of Parametrically Excited Duffing System by a Combined Linear-Plus-Nonlinear Feedback Control

For a parametrically excited Duffing system we propose a bifurcation control method in order to stabilize the trivial steady state in the frequency response and in order to eliminate jump in the force response, by employing a combined linear-plus-nonlinear feedback control. Because the bifurcation of the system is characterized by its modulation equations, we first determine the order of the feedback gain so that the feedback modifies the modulation equations. By theoretically analyzing the modified modulation equations, we show that the unstable region of the trivial steady state can be shifted and the nonlinear character can be changed, by means of the bifurcation control with the above feedback. The shift of the unstable region permits the stabilization of the trivial steady state in the frequency response, and the suppression of the discontinuous bifurcation due to the change of the nonlinear character allows the elimination of the jump in the quasistationary force response. Furthermore, by performing numerical simulations, and by comparing the responses of the uncontrolled system and the controlled one, we clarify that the proposed bifurcation control is available for the stabilization of the trivial steady state in the frequency response and for the reduction of the jump in the nonstationary force response.     

Stochastic jump and bifurcation of a slender cantilever beam carrying a lumped mass under narrow-band principal parametric excitation

A detailed theoretical investigation into the single-mode approximate response of a slender cantilever beam carrying a lumped mass subjected to base narrow-band random excitation is presented for the first time. The method of multiple scales is used and the stochastic jump and bifurcation have been investigated for the principal parametric resonance of the system using the stationary joint probability. Results show that stochastic jump occurs mainly in the region of triple-valued solution. For the frequency-response domain, if the excitation central frequency is a variable and others keep constant, the basic phenomena imply that the higher the frequency, the more probable the jump from the stationary non-trivial branch to the stationary trivial one once the frequency exceeds a certain value. If the bandwidth is a variable and others keep constant, the basic phenomena indicate that the most probable motion is around the non-trivial branch when the bandwidth is smaller, whereas the most probable motion gradually approaches the trivial one when the bandwidth becomes higher. For the force-response domain, there is a region of excitation acceleration within which the joint probability density has two peaks: an outer flabellate peak and a central volcano peak. Results show that the outer flabellate peak decreases while the central volcano peak increases as the value of the excitation acceleration decreases.     

Stability and Hopf Bifurcation of Four-Wheel-Steering Vehicles Involving Driver's Delay

A mathematical model is presented for four-wheel-steeringvehicles, with the time delay in driver's response and the nonlinearityin lateral tyre forces taken into account. It is proved that thevehicle-driver system has a trivial steady state motion, as well aseight non-trivial steady state motions due to the nonlinearity of tyreforces. The asymptotic stability and Hopf bifurcation of the trivialsteady state are analyzed for two control strategies ofrear-wheel-steering. It is shown through the numerical simulations thatthe four-wheel-steering technique based on the bilinear control strategyworks better when the driver's response involves time delay.     

NON-LINEAR FORCED VIBRATION OF AXIALLY MOVING VISCOELASTIC BEAMS

The non-linear forced vibration of axially moving viscoelastic beams excited bythe vibration of the supporting foundation is investigated. A non-linear partial-differential equa-tion governing the transverse motion is derived from the dynamical, constitutive equations andgeometrical relations. By referring to the quasi-static stretch assumption, the partial-differentialnon-linearity is reduced to an integro-partial-differential one. The method of multiple scales isdirectly applied to the governing equations with the two types of non-linearity, respectively. Theamplitude of near- and exact-resonant, steady state is analyzed by use of the solvability conditionof eliminating secular terms. Numerical results are presented to show the contributions of foun-dation vibration amplitude, viscoelastic damping, and nonlinearity to the response amplitude forthe first and the second mode.     

Responses of Duffing oscillator with fractional damping and random phase

This paper aims to investigate dynamic responses of stochastic Duffing oscillator with fractional-order damping term, where random excitation is modeled as a harmonic function with random phase. Combining with Lindstedt–Poincaré (L–P) method and the multiple-scale approach, we propose a new technique to theoretically derive the second-order approximate solution of the stochastic fractional Duffing oscillator. Later, the frequency–amplitude response equation in deterministic case and the first- and second-order steady-state moments for the steady state in stochastic case are presented analytically. We also carry out numerical simulations to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method with good agreement. Stochastic jump and bifurcation can be found in the figures of random responses, and then we apply Monte Carlo simulations directly to obtain the probability density functions and time response diagrams to find the stochastic jump and bifurcation. The results intuitively show that the intensity of the noise can lead to stochastic jump and bifurcation.

An improved approach for random parametric response of dynamic systems with non-linear inertia

A non-Gaussian closure scheme is developed for determining the stationary response of dynamic systems including non-linear inertia and stochastic coefficients. Numerical solutions are obtained and examined for their validity based on the preservation of moments properties. The method predicts the jump phenomenon, for all response statistics at an excitation level very close to the threshold level of the condition of almost sure stability. In view of the increased degree of non-linearity, resulting from the non-Gaussian closure scheme, the mean square of the response displacement is found to be less than those values predicted by other methods such as the Gaussian closure or the first order stochastic averaging.     

Stochastic jump and bifurcation of Duffing oscillator with fractional derivative damping under combined harmonic and white noise excitations

The stochastic jump and bifurcation of Duffing oscillator with fractional derivative damping of order α (0<α<1) under combined harmonic and white noise excitations are studied. First, the system state is approximately represented by two-dimensional time-homogeneous diffusive Markov process of amplitude and phase difference using the stochastic averaging method. Then, the method of reduced Fokker–Plank–Kolmogorov (FPK) equation is used to predict the stationary response of the original system. The phenomenon of stochastic jump and bifurcation as the fractional orders' change is examined.     

Magneto-elastic combination resonances analysis of current-conducting thin plate

Based on the Maxwell equations, the nonlinear magneto-elastic vibration equations of a thin plate and the electrodynamic equations and expressions of electro- magnetic forces are derived. In addition, the magneto-elastic combination resonances and stabilities of the thin beam-plate subjected to mechanical loadings in a constant transverse magnetic filed are studied. Using the Galerkin method, the corresponding nonlinear vibration differential equations are derived. The amplitude frequency response equation of the system in steady motion is obtained with the multiple scales method. The excitation condition of combination resonances is analyzed. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, stabilities of steady solutions are analyzed, and critical conditions of stability are also obtained. By numerical calculation, curves of resonance-amplitudes changes with detuning parameters, excitation amplitudes and magnetic intensity in the first and the second order modality are obtained. Time history response plots, phase charts, the Poincare mapping charts and spectrum plots of vibrations are obtained. The effect of electro-magnetic and mechanical parameters for the stabilities of solutions and the bifurcation are further analyzed. Some complex dynamic performances such as period- doubling motion and quasi-period motion are discussed.     

Nonlinear oscillations of suspended cables containing a two-to-one internal resonance

The near-resonant response of suspended, elastic cables driven by planar excitation is investigated using a two degree-of-fredom model. The model captures the interaction of a symmetric in-plane mode and an out-of-plane mode with near commensurable natural frequencies in a 2:1 ratio. The modes are coupled through quadratic and cubic nonlinearities arising from nonlinear cable stretching. The existence and stability of periodic solutions are investigated using a second order perturbation analysis. The first order analysis shows that suspended cables may exhibit saturation and jump phenomena. The second order analysis, however, reveals that the cubic nonlinearities and higher order corrections disrupt saturation. The stable, steady state solutions for the second order analysis compare favorably with results obtained by numerically integrating the equations of motion.     

RESPONSE OF PARAMETRICALLY EXCITED DUFFING-VAN DER POL OSCILLATOR WITH DELAYED FEEDBACK

The dynamical behaviour of a parametrically excited Duffing-van der Pol oscillator under linear-plus-nonlinear state feedback control with a time delay is concerned. By means of the method of averaging together with truncation of Taylor expansions, two slow-flow equations on the amplitude and phase of response were derived for the case of principal parametric resonance. It is shown that the stability condition for the trivial solution is only associated with the linear terms in the original systems besides the amplitude and frequency of parametric excitation. And the trivial solution can be stabilized by appreciate choice of gains and time delay in feedback control. Different from the case of the trivial solution, the stability condition for nontrivial solutions is also associated with nonlinear terms besides linear terms in the original system. It is demonstrated that nontrivial steady state responses may lose their stability by saddle-node (SN) or Hopf bifurcation (HB) as parameters vary. The simulations, obtained by numerically integrating the original system, are in good agreement with the analytical results.

Two-mode combination resonances of an in-extensional rotating shaft with large amplitude

In this paper, two-mode combination resonances of a simply supported rotating shaft are investigated. The shaft is modeled as an in-extensional spinning beam with large amplitude. Rotary inertia and gyroscopic effects are included, but shear deformation is neglected. The equations of motion are derived with the aid of the Hamilton principle and then transformed to the complex form. The method of harmonic balance is applied to obtain analytical solutions. Frequency-response curves are plotted for the combination resonances of the first and the second modes. The effects of eccentricity and external damping are investigated on the steady state response of the rotating shaft. The loci of saddle node bifurcation points are plotted as functions of external damping and eccentricity. The results are validated with numerical simulations.

Response statistics of two-degree-of-freedom non-linear system to narrow-band random excitation

The principal resonance of two-degree-of-freedom non-linear system to narrow-band random external excitation is investigated. The method of multiple scales is used to determine the equations of modulation of amplitude and phase. The behavior, stability and bifurcation of steady state response are studied by means of qualitative analysis. The effects of damping, detuning, bandwidth, and magnitudes of deterministic and random excitations are analyzed. The theoretical analyses are verified by numerical results. Theoretical analyses and numerical simulations show that when the intensity of the random excitation increases, the nontrivial steady state solution may be changed from a limit cycle to a diffused limit cycle. Under some conditions the system may have two steady state solutions, saturation and jumps may exist.

Bifurcation and Chaos Analysis of Stochastic Duffing System Under Harmonic Excitations

The Chebyshev polynomial approximation is applied to the dynamic response problem of a stochastic Duffing system with bounded random parameters, subject to harmonic excitations. The stochastic Duffing system is first reduced into an equivalent deterministic non-linear one for substitution. Then basic non-linear phenomena, such as stochastic saddle-node bifurcation, stochastic symmetry-breaking bifurcation, stochastic period-doubling bifurcation, coexistence of different kinds of steady-state stochastic responses, and stochastic chaos, are studied by numerical simulations. The main feature of stochastic chaos is explored. The suggested method provides a new approach to stochastic dynamic response problems of some dissipative stochastic systems with polynomial non-linearity.
