The chaotic behavior of the modified Rayleigh-Duffing oscillator with φ 6 potential and external excitation is investigated both analytically and numerically. The so-called oscillator models, for example, ship rolling motions. The single well and triple well potential cases are considered. Melnikov method is applied and the conditions for the existence of homoclinic and heteroclinic chaos are obtained. The effects of nonlinear damping on roll motion of ships are analyzed in detail. As it is known, nonlinear roll damping is a very important parameter in estimating ship responses. It is noted that the pure and unpure quadratic damping parameters affect the Melnikov criterion in the heteroclinic and homoclinic cases respectively while the pure cubic parameter affects the amplitude in both cases. The predictions have been tested with numerical simulations based on the basin of attraction. It is pointed out that certain quadratic damping effects are contrary to cubic damping effect.
In this paper, the Helmholtz equation with quadratic damping themes is used for modeling the dynamics of a simple prey-predator system also called a simple Lotka–Volterra system. From the Helmholtz equation with quadratic damping themes obtained after modeling, the equilibrium points have been found, and their stability has been analyzed. Subsequently, the harmonic oscillations have been studied by the harmonic balance method, and the phenomena of resonance and hysteresis are observed. The primary and secondary resonances have been researched by the multiple-scale method, and the conditions of stability of the amplitudes of oscillations are determined. Chaos is detected analytically by the Melnikov method and numerically using the basin of attraction, the bifurcation diagram, the Lyapunov exponent, the phase portrait, and the Poincaré section. The effects of all the parameters of the system are analyzed in detail, and special emphasis is placed on the new parameters. Through this analysis, the complex phenomena such as hysteresis, bistability, amplitude jump, resonances, and chaos have been obtained. The control of the parameters and the necessary conditions to control the aforementioned phenomena have been found.
This paper considers the effect of nonlinear dissipation on the basin boundaries of a driven two-well modified Rayleigh-Duffing oscillator where pure cubic, unpure cubic, pure quadratic and unpure quadratic nonlinearities are considered. By analyzing the potential, an analytic expression is found for the homoclinic orbit. The Melnikov criterion is used to examine a global homoclinic bifurcation and transition to chaos. Unpure quadratic parameter and parametric excitation amplitude effects are found on the critical Melnikov amplitude µ cr . Finally, the phase space of initial conditions is carefully examined in order to analyze the effect of the nonlinear damping, and particularly how the basin boundaries become fractalized.
This paper addresses the issues on the dynamics of nonlinear damping gyros subjected to a quintic nonlinear parametric excitation. The fixed points and their stability are analyzed for the autonomous gyros equation. The number of fixed points of the system varies from one to six. The approximate equation of gyros is considered by expanding the nonlinear restoring force and parametric excitation for the study of the dynamics of gyros. Amplitude and frequency of possible resonances are found by using the multiple scales method. Also obtained are the principal parametric resonance and orders 4 and 6 subharmonic resonances. The stability conditions for each of these resonances are also obtained. Chaotic oscillations, multistability, hysteresis, and coexisting attractors are found using the bifurcation diagrams, the Lyapunov exponents, the phase portraits, the Poincaré section and the time histories. The effects of the damping parameter, the angular spin velocity and the parametric nonlinear excitation are analyzed. Results obtained by using the approximate gyros equation are compared to the dynamics obtained with the exact equation of gyros. The analytical investigations are complemented by numerical simulations.
