Hopf-pitchfork bifurcation of coupled van der Pol oscillator with delay

In this paper, the Hopf-pitchfork bifurcation of coupled van der Pol with delay is studied. The interaction coefficient and time delay are taken as two bifurcation parameters. Firstly, the normal form is gotten by performing a center manifold reduction and using the normal form theory developed by Faria and Magalhães. Secondly, bifurcation diagrams and phase portraits are given through analyzing the unfolding structure. Finally, numerical simulations are used to support theoretical analysis

Weakly nonlinear hyperbolic differential equation in Hilbert space

We consider nonlinear perturbations of the hyperbolic equation in the Hilbert space. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions of boundary-value problem for the corresponding equation and iterative procedures for their finding are obtained in the case when the operator in linear part of the problem hasn't inverse and can have nonclosed set of values. As an application we consider boundary-value problems for countable systems of differential equations and van der Pol equation in a separable Hilbert space

Forced large amplitude periodic vibrations of non-linear Mathieu resonators for microgyroscope applications

International audienceThis paper describes a comprehensive non-linear multiphysics model based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam equation that remains valid up to large displacements in the case of electrostatically actuated Mathieu resonators. This purely analytical model takes into account the fringing field effects and is used to track the periodic motions of the sensing parts in resonant microgyroscopes. Several parametric analyses are presented in order to investigate the effect of the proof mass frequency on the bifurcation topology. The model shows that the optimal sensitivity is reached for resonant microgyroscopes designed with sensing frequency four times faster than the actuation one

Dynamics of a Limit Cycle Oscillator under Time Delayed Linear and Nonlinear Feedbacks

We study the effects of time delayed linear and nonlinear feedbacks on the dynamics of a single Hopf bifurcation oscillator. Our numerical and analytic investigations reveal a host of complex temporal phenomena such as phase slips, frequency suppression, multiple periodic states and chaos. Such phenomena are frequently observed in the collective behavior of a large number of coupled limit cycle oscillators. Our time delayed feedback model offers a simple paradigm for obtaining and investigating these temporal states in a single oscillator.We construct a detailed bifurcation diagram of the oscillator as a function of the time delay parameter and the driving strengths of the feedback terms. We find some new states in the presence of the quadratic nonlinear feedback term with interesting characteristics like birhythmicity, phase reversals, radial trapping, phase jumps and spiraling patterns in the amplitude space. Our results may find useful applications in physical, chemical or biological systems.Comment: VERSION 4: Fig. 10(d) added, an uncited reference removed; (To appear in Physica D) (17 pages, 21 figures, two column, aps RevTeX); VERSION 3: Revised.
