Bifurcation control of nonlinear oscillator in primary and secondary resonance

A weakly nonlinear oscillator was modeled by a sort of differential equation, a saddle-node bifurcation was found in case of primary and secondary resonance. To control the jumping phenomena and the unstable region of the nonlinear oscillator, feedback controllers were designed. Bifurcation control equations were obtained by using the multiple scales method. And through the numerical analysis, good controller could be obtained by changing the feedback control gain. Then a feasible way of further research of saddle-node bifurcation was provided. Finally, an example shows that the feedback control method applied to the hanging bridge system of gas turbine is doable.     

Theoretical and experimental study on non-linear vibration characteristic of gear transmission system

In order to investigate the vibration of gear transmission system with clearance, a vibratory test-bed of the gear transmission system was designed. The non-linear dynamic model of the system was presented, with consideration of the effects of nonlinear dynamic gear mesh excitation, flexible rotors and bearings. Integration method was used to investigate the non-linear dynamic response of the system. The results imply that when the mesh frequency is near the natural frequency of gear pair, it is the first primary resonance, the bifurcation appears, and the vibration becomes to be chaotic motion rapidly. When the speed is close to the natural frequency of the first-order bending vibration, it is the second primary resonance, the periodic motion changes to chaos by period doubling bifurcation. The vibratory measurement of test-bed of the gear transmission system was performed. Accelerometers were employed to measure the high frequency vibration. Experimental results show that the vibration acceleration of the gear transmission system includes mesh frequency and sideband. The numerical calculation results of low speed can be validated by experimental results basically. It means that the presented non-linear dynamic model of the gear transmission system is right.     

Bifurcation analysis for an SMIB power system with series capacitor compensation associated with sub-synchronous resonance

In this paper,an introduction to the bifurcation theory and its applicability to the study of sub-synchronous resonance (SSR) phenomenon in power system are presented. The continuation and bifurcation analysis software AUTO97 is adopted to investigate SSR for a single-machine-infinite-bus power system with series capacitor compensation. The investigation results show that SSR is the result of unstable limit cycle after bifurcation. When the system exhibits SSR, some complex periodical orbit bifurcations, such as torus bifurcation and periodical fold bifurcation, may happen with the variation of limit cycle. Furthermore, the initial operation condition may greatly influence the ultimate state of the system. The time-domain simulation is carried out to verify the effectiveness of the results obtained from the bifurcation analysis.     

Bifurcation and chaos study on transverse-torsional coupled 2K-H planetary gear train with multiple clearances

A new non-linear transverse-torsional coupled model was proposed for 2K-H planetary gear train, and gear's geometric eccentricity error, comprehensive transmission error, time-varying meshing stiffness, sun-planet and planet-ring gear pair's backlashes and sun gear's bearing clearance were taken into consideration. The solution of differential governing equation of motion was solved by applying variable step-size Runge-Kutta numerical integration method. The system motion state was investigated systematically and qualitatively, and exhibited diverse characteristics of bifurcation and chaos as well as non-linear behavior under different bifurcation parameters including meshing frequency, sun-planet backlash, planet-ring backlash and sun gear's bearing clearance. Analysis results show that the increasing damping could suppress the region of chaotic motion and improve the system's stability significantly. The route of crisis to chaotic motion was observed under the bifurcation parameter of meshing frequency. However, the routes of period doubling and crisis to chaos were identified under the bifurcation parameter of sun-planet backlash; besides, several different types of routes to chaos were observed and coexisted under the bifurcation parameter of planet-ring backlash including period doubling, Hopf bifurcation, 3T-periodic channel and crisis. Additionally, planet-ring backlash generated a strong coupling effect to system's non-linear behavior while the sun gear's bearing clearance produced weak coupling effect. Finally, quasi-periodic motion could be found under all above–mentioned bifurcation parameters and closely associated with the 3T-periodic motion.     

Stability switches and Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation in an inertial two-neuron coupling system with multiple delays

In this paper,we investigate an inertial two-neural coupling system with multiple delays.We analyze the number of equilibrium points and demonstrate the corresponding pitchfork bifurcation.Results show that the system has a unique equilibrium as well as three equilibria for different values of coupling weights.The local asymptotic stability of the equilibrium point is studied using the corresponding characteristic equation.We find that multiple delays can induce the system to exhibit stable switching between the resting state and periodic motion.Stability regions with delay-dependence are exhibited in the parameter plane of the time delays employing the Hopf bifurcation curves.To obtain the global perspective of the system dynamics,stability and periodic activity involving multiple equilibria are investigated by analyzing the intersection points of the pitchfork and Hopf bifurcation curves,called the Bogdanov-Takens(BT)bifurcation.The homoclinic bifurcation and the fold bifurcation of limit cycle are obtained using the BT theoretical results of the third-order normal form.Finally,numerical simulations are provided to support the theoretical analyses.     

Forced oscillations with time-varying mesh stiffness and backlash in gear systems

A dynamic model to describe the torsional vibration behaviors of a spur gear system is presented in this paper.Differential equations of nonlinear dynamics for the gear system exhibiting combined nonlinearity influence such as time-varying mesh stiffness,backlash and dynamic transmission error(DTE) were obtained.The method of multiple scales was employed to solve the nonlinear differential equations with parametric excitation in gear systems,by which both the frequency-response curves of the primary resonance caused by internal excitation and the analytical periodic solutions of nonlinear differential equations were obtained.The nonlinear influence of stiffness variation,the damping and the internal excitation on the system response was shown by frequency-response curves.Compared with numerical examples,the approximate analytical solutions are in good agreement with exact solutions,which proves that the method of multiple scales is effective for solving nonlinear problems in gear systems.     

Nonlinear instability and dynamic bifurcation of a plane interface during solidification

By taking average over the curvature, the temperature and its gradient, the solute concentration and its gradient at the flange of planar interface perturbed by sinusoidal ripple during solidification, the nonlinear dynamic equations of the sinusoidal perturbation wave have been set up. Analysis of the nonlinear instability and the behaviors of dynamic bifurcation of the solutions of these equations shows that (i) the way of dynamic bifurcation of the flat-to-cellular interface transition varies with different thermal gradients. The quasi-subcritical-lag bifurcation occurs in the small interface thermal gradient scope, the supercritical-lag bifurcation in the medium thermal gradient scope and the supercritical bifurcation in the large thermal gradient scope. (ii) The transition of cellular-to-flat interface is realized through supercritical inverse bifurcation in the rapid solidification area.     

Nonlinear dynamic behaviors of ball bearing rotor system

Nonlinear forces and moments caused by ball bearing were calculated based on relationship of displacement and deflection and quasi-dynamic model of bearing.Five-DOF dynamic equations of rotor supported by ball bearings were estimated.The Newmark-β method and Newton-Laphson method were used to solve the equations.The dynamic characteristics of rotor system were studied through the time response,the phase portrait,the Poincar?maps and the bifurcation diagrams.The results show that the system goes through the quasi-periodic bifurcation route to chaos as rotate speed increases and there are several quasi-periodic regions and chaos regions.The amplitude decreases and the dynamic behaviors change as the axial load of ball bearing increases;the initial contact angle of ball bearing affects dynamic behaviors of the system obviously.The system can avoid non-periodic vibration by choosing structural parameters and operating parameters reasonably.     

Nonlinear dynamics and coupling effect of libration and vibration of tethered space robot in deorbiting process

In order to control the growth of space debris,a novel tethered space robot(TSR) was put forward.After capture,the platform,tether,and target constituted a tethered combination system.General nonlinear dynamics of the tethered combination system in the post-capture phase was established with the consideration of the attitudes of two spacecrafts and the quadratic nonlinear elasticity of the tether.The motion law of the tethered combination in the deorbiting process with different disturbances was simulated and discussed on the premise that the platform was only controlled by a constant thrust force.It is known that the four motion freedoms of the tethered combination are coupled with each other in the deorbiting process from the simulation results.A noticeable phenomenon is that the tether longitudinal vibration does not decay to vanish even under the large tether damping with initial attitude disturbances due to the coupling effect.The approximate analytical solutions of the dynamics for a simplified model are obtained through the perturbation method.The condition of the inter resonance phenomenon is the frequency ratio λ_1=2.The case study shows good accordance between the analytical solutions and numerical results,indicating the effectiveness and correctness of approximate analytical solutions.     

Potassium-induced bifurcations and chaos of firing patterns observed from biological experiment on a neural pacemaker

Changes of neural firing patterns and transitions between firing patterns induced by the introduction of external stimulation or adjustment of biological parameter have been demonstrated to play key roles in information coding.In this paper,bifurcation processes of bursting patterns were observed from an experimental neural pacemaker,through the adjustment of potassium parameter including ion concentration and calcium-dependent channel conductance.The adjustment of calcium-dependent potassium channel conductance was achieved by changing the extracellular tetraethylammonium concentration.The deterministic dynamics of chaotic bursting patterns induced by period-doubling bifurcation and intermittency,and lying between two periodic bursting patterns in a period-adding bifurcation process was investigated with a nonlinear prediction method.The bifurcations included period-doubling and period-adding bifurcations of bursting patterns.The experimental bifurcations and chaos closely matched those previously simulated in the theoretical neuronal model by adjusting potassium parameter,which demonstrated the simulation results of the theoretical model.The experimental results indicate that the potassium concentration and conductance of calcium-dependent potassium channel can induce bifurcations of the neural firing patterns.The potential role of these bifurcation structures in neural information coding mechanism is discussed.
