APPLICATION OF WAVELET TRANSFORM TO BIFURCATION AND CHAOS STUDY

The response of a nonlinear vibration system may be of three types, namely, periodic, quasiperiodic or chaotic,,when the parameters of the system are changed. The periodic motions can be identified by Poincare map, and harmonic wavelet transform (HWT) can distinguish quasiperiod from chaos, so the existing domains of different types of motions of the system can be revealed in the parametric space with the method of HWT joining with Poincare map.

Bifurcation and chaos in high-frequency peak current mode Buck converter

Bifurcation and chaos in high-frequency peak current mode Buck converter working in continuous conduction mode（CCM） are studied in this paper. First of all, the two-dimensional discrete mapping model is established. Next, reference current at the period-doubling point and the border of inductor current are derived. Then, the bifurcation diagrams are drawn with the aid of MATLAB. Meanwhile, circuit simulations are executed with PSIM, and time domain waveforms as well as phase portraits in i_L–v_C plane are plotted with MATLAB on the basis of simulation data. After that, we construct the Jacobian matrix and analyze the stability of the system based on the roots of characteristic equations. Finally, the validity of theoretical analysis has been verified by circuit testing. The simulation and experimental results show that,with the increase of reference current I_（ref）, the corresponding switching frequency f is approaching to low-frequency stage continuously when the period-doubling bifurcation happens, leading to the converter tending to be unstable. With the increase of f, the corresponding Irefdecreases when the period-doubling bifurcation occurs, indicating the stable working range of the system becomes smaller.

Bifurcation and chaos analysis for aeroelastic airfoil with freeplay structural nonlinearity in pitch

The dynamics character of a two degree-of-freedom aeroelastic airfoil with combined freeplay and cubic stiffness nonlinearities in pitch submitted to supersonic and hypersonic flow has been gaining significant attention. The Poincare mapping method and Floquet theory are adopted to analyse the limit cycle oscillation flutter and chaotic motion of this system. The result shows that the limit cycle oscillation flutter can be accurately predicted by the Floquet multiplier. The phase trajectories of both the pitch and plunge motion are obtained and the results show that the plunge motion is much more complex than the pitch motion. It is also proved that initial conditions have important influences on the dynamics character of the airfoil system. In a certain range of airspeed and with the same system parameters, the stable limit cycle oscillation, chaotic and multi-periodic motions can be detected under different initial conditions. The figure of the Poincare section also approves the previous conclusion.

Linear transfer function approximations of the fractional integrators 1Is~ with m ^- 0.80-0.99 with steps of 0.01 are calculated systemically from the fractional order calculus and frequency-domain approximation method. To illustrate the effectiveness for fractional functions, the magnitude Bode diagrams of the actual and approximate transfer functions 1Ism with a slope of -20m dB//decade are depicted. By using the transfer function approxima- tions of the fractional integrators, a new fractional-order nonlinear system is investigated through the bifurcation diagram and Lyapunov exponent. The corresponding circuit of the fractional-order system is designed and the experimental results match perfectly with the numerical simulations.

Snap-through behaviors and nonlinear vibrations of a bistable composite laminated cantilever shell:an experimental and numerical study

The snap-through behaviors and nonlinear vibrations are investigated for a bistable composite laminated cantilever shell subjected to transversal foundation excitation based on experimental and theoretical approaches.An improved experimental specimen is designed in order to satisfy the cantilever support boundary condition,which is composed of an asymmetric region and a symmetric region.The symmetric region of the experimental specimen is entirely clamped,which is rigidly connected to an electromagnetic shaker,while the asymmetric region remains free of constraint.Different motion paths are realized for the bistable cantilever shell by changing the input signal levels of the electromagnetic shaker,and the displacement responses of the shell are collected by the laser displacement sensors.The numerical simulation is conducted based on the established theoretical model of the bistable composite laminated cantilever shell,and an off-axis three-dimensional dynamic snap-through domain is obtained.The numerical solutions are in good agreement with the experimental results.The nonlinear stiffness characteristics,dynamic snap-through domain,and chaos and bifurcation behaviors of the shell are quantitatively analyzed.Due to the asymmetry of the boundary condition and the shell,the upper stable-state of the shell exhibits an obvious soft spring stiffness characteristic,and the lower stable-state shows a linear stiffness characteristic of the shell.

Magneto-elastic dynamics and bifurcation of rotating annular plate

In this paper, magneto-elastic dynamic behavior, bifurcation, and chaos of a rotating annular thin plate with various boundary conditions are investigated. Based on the thin plate theory and the Maxwell equations, the magneto-elastic dynamic equations of rotating annular plate are derived by means of Hamilton＇s principle. Bessel function as a mode shape function and the Galerkin method are used to achieve the transverse vibration differential equation of the rotating annular plate with different boundary conditions. By numerical analysis, the bifurcation diagrams with magnetic induction, amplitude and frequency of transverse excitation force as the control parameters are respectively plotted under different boundary conditions such as clamped supported sides, simply supported sides, and clamped-one-side combined with simply-anotherside. Poincare′ maps, time history charts, power spectrum charts, and phase diagrams are obtained under certain conditions,and the influence of the bifurcation parameters on the bifurcation and chaos of the system is discussed. The results show that the motion of the system is a complicated and repeated process from multi-periodic motion to quasi-period motion to chaotic motion, which is accompanied by intermittent chaos, when the bifurcation parameters change. If the amplitude of transverse excitation force is bigger or magnetic induction intensity is smaller or boundary constraints level is lower, the system can be more prone to chaos.

Bifurcation and dynamic behavior analysis of a rotating cantilever plate in subsonic airflow

Turbo-machineries,as key components,have wide applications in civil,aerospace,and mechanical engineering.By calculating natural frequencies and dynamical deformations,we have explained the rationality of the series form for the aerodynamic force of the blade under the subsonic flow in our earlier studies.In this paper,the subsonic aerodynamic force obtained numerically is applied to the low pressure compressor blade with a low constant rotating speed.The blade is established as a pre-twist and presetting cantilever plate with a rectangular section under combined excitations,including the centrifugal force and the aerodynamic force.In view of the first-order shear deformation theory and von-K′arm′an nonlinear geometric relationship,the nonlinear partial differential dynamical equations for the warping cantilever blade are derived by Hamilton’s principle.The second-order ordinary differential equations are acquired by the Galerkin approach.With consideration of 1:3 internal resonance and 1/2 sub-harmonic resonance,the averaged equation is derived by the asymptotic perturbation methodology.Bifurcation diagrams,phase portraits,waveforms,and power spectrums are numerically obtained to analyze the effects of the first harmonic of the aerodynamic force on nonlinear dynamical responses of the structure.

NONLINEAR OSCILLATIONS AND CHAOS IN A RAILWAY VEHICLE SYSTEM

The study of nonlinear oscillations and chaos of a railway freight car is undertaken. The vehicle is considered as a multiple rigid body system with 9 degrees of freedom. The vehicle forward speed is taken as the control parameter of the system. Hopf bifurcation point, limit cycles, quasiperiodic and chaotic motions of the system are computed by use of numerical methods. The identification of periodic, quasiperiodic and chaotic motions of the system is carried out by using the methods of phase plane portrait and Poincare map. Numerical results show that chaotic motion appears via the route of quasiperiodicity when the vehicle runs over a certain speed.

Nonlinear flutter of a two-dimension thin plate subjected to aerodynamic heating by differential quadrature method

The problem of nonlinear aerothermoelasticity of a two-dimension thin plate in supersonic airflow is examined. The strain-displacement relation of the von Karman＇s large deflection theory is employed to describe the geometric non-linearity and the aerodynamic piston theory is employed to account for the effects of the aerodynamic force. A new method, the differential quadrature method （DQM）, is used to obtain the discrete form of the motion equations. Then the Runge-Kutta numerical method is applied to solve the nonlinear equations and the nonlinear response of the plate is obtained numerically. The results indicate that due to the aerodynamic heating, the plate stability is degenerated, and in a specific region of system parameters the chaos motion occurs, and the route to chaos motion is via doubling-period bifurcations.

We present a generalized analytical solution to the normalized state equations of a class of coupled simple secondorder non-autonomous circuit systems. The analytical solutions thus obtained are used to study the synchronization dynamics of two different types of circuit systems, differing only by their constituting nonlinear element. The synchronization dynamics of the coupled systems is studied through two-parameter bifurcation diagrams, phase portraits, and time-series plots obtained from the explicit analytical solutions. Experimental figures are presented to substantiate the analytical results. The generalization of the analytical solution for other types of coupled simple chaotic systems is discussed. The synchronization dynamics of the coupled chaotic systems studied through two-parameter bifurcation diagrams obtained from the explicit analytical solutions is reported for the first time.

In this papcr,bifurcations and chaos control in a discrete-time Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model have been studied in quadrant-I.It is shown that for all parametric values,model hus boundary equilibria:P00(0,0),Px0(1,0),and the unique positive equilibrium point:P^+xy(d/c,r(c-d)/bc) if c>d.By Linearization method,we explored the local dynamics along with different topological classifications about equilibria.We also explored the boundedness of positive solution,global dynamics,and existence of prime-period and periodic points of the model.It is explored that flip bifurcation occurs about boundary equilibria:Poo(0,0),P.o(1,0),and also there exists a flip bifurcation when parameters of the discrete-time model vary in a small neighborhood of P^+xy(d/c,r(c-d)/bc).Further,it is also explored that about P^+xy(d/c,r(c-d)/bc) the model undergoes a N-S bifurcation,and meanwhile a stable close invariant curves appears.From the perspective of biology,these curves imply that betwecn predator and prey populations,there exist periodic or quasi-periodic oscillations.Some simulations are presented to illustrate not only main results but also reveals the complex dynamics such as the orbits of period-2,3,13,15,17 and 23.The Maximum Lyapunov exponents as well as fractal dimension are computed numeri-cally to justify the chaotic behaviors in the model.Finally,feedback control method is applied to stabilize chaos existing in the model.

Polyps and paralysis phonation classification with nonlinear dynamics model

In order to provide the basis for parameter selection of vocal diseases classification,a nonlinear dynamic modeling method is proposed.A biomechanical model of vocal cords with polyp or paralysis,which couples to glottal airflow to produce laryngeal sound source,is introduced.And then the fundamental frequency and its perturbation parameters are solved.Poincare section and bifurcation diagram are applied to nonlinear analysis of model vibration.By changing the pathological parameters or subglottal pressure,the changes of fundamental frequency and Lyapunov exponents are analyzed.The simulation results show that,vocal cord paralysis reduces the fundamental frequency,and the chaos occurs only within a certain pressure range;while vocal cord with a polyp don＇t reduce the fundamental frequency,chaos distributes throughout the entire range of pressure.Therefore this study is helpful for classification of polyp and paralysis by the acoustic diagnoses.

Large-Amplitude Oscillations of Hyperelastic Cylindrical Membrane Under Thermal-Mechanical Fields

In this paper,the nonlinear dynamic behaviors of a hyperelastic cylindrical membrane composed of the incompressible Ogden material are examined,where the membrane is subjected to uniformly distributed radial periodic loads at the internal surface and surrounded by a thermal field.A second-order nonlinear differential equation describing the radially symmetric motion of the membrane is obtained.Then,the dynamic characteristics of the system are qualitatively analyzed in terms of different material parameter spaces and ambient tem-peratures.Particularly,for a given constant load,the bifurcation phenomenon of equilibrium points is examined.It is shown that there exists a critical load,and the phase orbits may be the asymmetrie homoclinic orbits of the“oo”type.Moreover,for the system with two centers and one saddle point,the dynamic behaviors of the system show softening phenomena at both centers,but the temperature has opposite effects on the stiffness of the structure.For a given periodically perturbed load superposed on the constant term,some complex dynamic behaviors such as quasiperiodic and chaotic oscillations are analyzed.With the Poincare section and the maximum Lyapunov characteristic exponent,it is found that the ambient temperature could lead to the irregularity and unpredictability of the nonlinear system,and also changes the threshold of chaos.
