Competition of spatial and temporal instabilities under time delay near codimension-two Turing-Hopf bifurcations
Competition of spatial and temporal instabilities under time delay near the
codimension-two Turing-Hopf bifurcations is studied in a reaction-diffusion
equation. The time delay changes remarkably the oscillation frequency, the
intrinsic wave vector, and the intensities of both Turing and Hopf modes. The
application of appropriate time delay can control the competition between the
Turing and Hopf modes. Analysis shows that individual or both feedbacks can
realize the control of the transformation between the Turing and Hopf patterns.
Two dimensional numerical simulations validate the analytical results.Comment: 13 pages, 6 figure
Post-Double Hopf Bifurcation Dynamics and Adaptive Synchronization of a Hyperchaotic System
In this paper a four-dimensional hyperchaotic system with only one
equilibrium is considered and its double Hopf bifurcations are investigated.
The general post-bifurcation and stability analysis are carried out using the
normal form of the system obtained via the method of multiple scales. The
dynamics of the orbits predicted through the normal form comprises possible
regimes of periodic solutions, two-period tori, and three-period tori in
parameter space.
Moreover, we show how the hyperchaotic synchronization of this system can be
realized via an adaptive control scheme. Numerical simulations are included to
show the effectiveness of the designed control
Stabilizing unstable periodic orbits in the Lorenz equations using time-delayed feedback control
For many years it was believed that an unstable periodic orbit with an odd
number of real Floquet multipliers greater than unity cannot be stabilized by
the time-delayed feedback control mechanism of Pyragus. A recent paper by
Fiedler et al uses the normal form of a subcritical Hopf bifurcation to give a
counterexample to this theorem. Using the Lorenz equations as an example, we
demonstrate that the stabilization mechanism identified by Fiedler et al for
the Hopf normal form can also apply to unstable periodic orbits created by
subcritical Hopf bifurcations in higher-dimensional dynamical systems. Our
analysis focuses on a particular codimension-two bifurcation that captures the
stabilization mechanism in the Hopf normal form example, and we show that the
same codimension-two bifurcation is present in the Lorenz equations with
appropriately chosen Pyragus-type time-delayed feedback. This example suggests
a possible strategy for choosing the feedback gain matrix in Pyragus control of
unstable periodic orbits that arise from a subcritical Hopf bifurcation of a
stable equilibrium. In particular, our choice of feedback gain matrix is
informed by the Fiedler et al example, and it works over a broad range of
parameters, despite the fact that a center-manifold reduction of the
higher-dimensional problem does not lead to their model problem.Comment: 21 pages, 8 figures, to appear in PR
Suppression of Limit Cycle Oscillations using the Nonlinear Tuned Vibration Absorber
The objective of the present study is to mitigate, or even completely
eliminate, the limit cycle oscillations in mechanical systems using a passive
nonlinear absorber, termed the nonlinear tuned vibration absorber (NLTVA). An
unconventional aspect of the NLTVA is that the mathematical form of its
restoring force is not imposed a priori, as it is the case for most existing
nonlinear absorbers. The NLTVA parameters are determined analytically using
stability and bifurcation analyses, and the resulting design is validated using
numerical continuation. The proposed developments are illustrated using a Van
der Pol-Duffing primary system
Time-delayed feedback control of unstable periodic orbits near a subcritical Hopf bifurcation
We show that Pyragas delayed feedback control can stabilize an unstable
periodic orbit (UPO) that arises from a generic subcritical Hopf bifurcation of
a stable equilibrium in an n-dimensional dynamical system. This extends results
of Fiedler et al. [PRL 98, 114101 (2007)], who demonstrated that such feedback
control can stabilize the UPO associated with a two-dimensional subcritical
Hopf normal form. Pyragas feedback requires an appropriate choice of a feedback
gain matrix for stabilization, as well as knowledge of the period of the
targeted UPO. We apply feedback in the directions tangent to the
two-dimensional center manifold. We parameterize the feedback gain by a modulus
and a phase angle, and give explicit formulae for choosing these two parameters
given the period of the UPO in a neighborhood of the bifurcation point. We
show, first heuristically, and then rigorously by a center manifold reduction
for delay differential equations, that the stabilization mechanism involves a
highly degenerate Hopf bifurcation problem that is induced by the time-delayed
feedback. When the feedback gain modulus reaches a threshold for stabilization,
both of the genericity assumptions associated with a two-dimensional Hopf
bifurcation are violated: the eigenvalues of the linearized problem do not
cross the imaginary axis as the bifurcation parameter is varied, and the real
part of the cubic coefficient of the normal form vanishes. Our analysis of this
degenerate bifurcation problem reveals two qualitatively distinct cases when
unfolded in a two-parameter plane. In each case, Pyragas-type feedback
successfully stabilizes the branch of small-amplitude UPOs in a neighborhood of
the original bifurcation point, provided that the phase angle satisfies a
certain restriction.Comment: 35 pages, 19 figure
