In this paper, a modified normal form approach is proposed for the analysis of high dimensional nonlinear systems. Using the modified approach, calculations of normal forms and, in particular, the related coefficients are carried out much more conveniently. Certain high dimensional systems, including systems with inner resonances, are investigated. These systems exist widely in engineering applications. To illustrate the approach, five examples are presented.

AbstractWe examine applicability of normal forms of non-holonomic robotic systems to the problem of motion planning. A case study is analyzed of a planar, free-floating space robot consisting of a mobile base equipped with an on-board manipulator. It is assumed that during the robot’s motion its conserved angular momentum is zero. The motion planning problem is first solved at velocity level, and then torques at the joints are found as a solution of an inverse dynamics problem. A novelty of this paper lies in using the chained normal form of the robot’s dynamics and corresponding feedback transformations for motion planning at the velocity level. Two basic cases are studied, depending on the position of mounting point of the on-board manipulator. Comprehensive computational results are presented, and compared with the results provided by the Endogenous Configuration Space Approach. Advantages and limitations of applying normal forms for robot motion planning are discussed.

Amplitude equation may be used to study pattern formatio. In this chapter, we establish a new mechanical algorithm AE_Hopf for calculating the amplitude equation near Hopf bifurcation based on the method of normal form approach in Maple. The normal form approach needs a large number of variables and intricate calculations. As a result, deriving the amplitude equation from diffusion-reaction is a difficult task. Making use of our mechanical algorithm, we derived the amplitude equations from several biology and physics models. The results indicate that the algorithm is easy to apply and effective. This algorithm may be useful for learning the dynamics of pattern formation of reaction-diffusion systems in future studies.

In this paper, we consider double zero singularity of a symmetric BAM neural network model with a time delay. Based on the normal form approach and the center manifold theory, we obtain the normal form on the centre manifold with double zero singularity. Some numerical simulations support our analysis results.
