In this two-part paper, we investigate nonlinear dynamics in the rotor-active magnetic bearings (AMB) system with 8-pole legs and the time-varying stiffness. The model of parametrically excited two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system with the quadratic and cubic nonlinearities is established to explore the periodic and quasiperiodic motions as well as the bifurcations and chaotic dynamics of the system. The method of multiple scales is used to obtain the averaged equations in the case of primary parameter resonance and 1/2 subharmonic resonance. In Part I of the companion paper, numerical approach is applied to the averaged equations to find the periodic, quasiperiodic solutions and local bifurcations. It is found that there exist 2-period, 3-period, 4-period, 5-period, multi-period and quasiperiodic solutions in the rotor-AMB system with 8-pole legs and the time-varying stiffness. The catastrophic phenomena for the amplitude of nonlinear oscillations are first observed in the rotor-AMB system with 8-pole legs and the time-varying stiffness. The procedures of motion from the transient state chaotic motion to the steady state periodic and quasiperiodic motions are also found. The results obtained here show that there exists the ability of autocontrolling transient state chaos to the steady state periodic and quasiperiodic motions in the rotor-AMB system with 8-pole legs and the time-varying stiffness.

Analytic solutions are derived for the general attitude motion of a near-symmetric rigid body subject to time-varying torques in terms of certain integrals. A methodology is presented for evaluating these integrals in closed form. We consider the case of constant torque about the spin axis and of transverse torques expressed in terms of polynomial functions of time. For an axisymmetric body with constant axial torque, the resulting solutions of Euler’s equations of motion are exact. The analytic solutions for the Eulerian angles are approximate owing to a small angle assumption, but these apply to a wide variety of practical problems. The case when all three components of the external torque vector vary simultaneously with time is much more difficult and is treated in Part II.

This paper presents the stability theory and dynamic behavior of a micro-mechanical parametric-effect resonator. The device is a MEMS time-varying capacitor. The nonlinear dynamics of the MEMS are investigated analytically, and numerically. Applying perturbation methods, and deriving an analytical equation to describe the frequency response of the system enables the designer to study the effect of changes in the system parameters that can be used for design and optimization of the system.
