Vibrating Systems

Oscillations of weakly nonlinear autonomous multiple-degree-of-freedom dynamical systems are studied. The analysis includes nonlinear effects arising from the potential as well as the kinetic energies of the systems and the systems include elements that produce nonlinear dissipative forces. The method of averaging is applied to a suitably transformed set of equations. In several important cases nonperiodic solutions for arbitrary initial conditions are obtained by quadratures.

This paper develops a predictive modeling algorithm, denoted as Real-Time Vector Fitting (RTVF), which is capable of approximating the real-time linearized dynamics of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) dynamical systems via rational transfer function matrices. Based on a generalization of the well-known Time-Domain Vector Fitting (TDVF) algorithm, RTVF is suitable for online modeling of dynamical systems which experience both initial-state decay contributions in the measured output signals and concurrently active input signals. These adaptations were specifically contrived to meet the needs currently present in the electrical power systems community, where real-time modeling of low frequency power system dynamics is becoming an increasingly coveted tool by power system operators. After introducing and validating the RTVF scheme on synthetic test cases, this paper presents a series of numerical tests on high-order closed-loop generator systems in the IEEE 39-bus test system.

AbstractWe study the theory of universality for the nonautonomous dynamical systems from topological point of view related to hypercyclicity. The conditions are provided in a way that Birkhoff transitivity theorem can be extended. In the context of generalized linear nonautonomous systems, we show that either one of the topological transitivity or hypercyclicity give sensitive dependence on initial conditions. Meanwhile, some examples are presented for topological transitivity, hypercyclicity and topological conjugacy.

Contemporary Technology

Pseudorandom number generators are used in many areas of contemporary technology such as modern communication systems and engineering applications. In recent years a new approach to secure transmission of information based on the application of the theory of chaotic dynamical systems has been developed. In this paper we present a method of generating pseudorandom numbers applying discrete chaotic dynamical systems. The idea of construction of chaotic pseudorandom number generators (CPRNG) intrinsically exploits the property of extreme sensitivity of trajectories to small changes of initial conditions, since the generated bits are associated with trajectories in an appropriate way. To ensure good statistical properties of the CPRBG (which determine its quality) we assume that the dynamical systems used are also ergodic or preferably mixing. Finally, since chaotic systems often appear in realistic physical situations, we suggest a physical model of CPRNG.

Ship Capsizing

The dynamics and hydrodynamics of ship capsizing include strong nonlinearities, transient effects, and physical phenomena that have not been fully identified or studied. This paper presents a study of some of the various mechanisms associated with this extreme behavior. A quasi-nonlinear three degree of freedom numerical model is employed to examine the effects of initial conditions on the ultimate state of a box barge model. The numerical results are then used to provide structure and understanding to otherwise seemingly inconsistent and ambiguous experiments.

Stick Slip

Abstract Systems with discontinuous dynamics can be found in diverse disciplines. Meshing gears with backlash, impact dampers, relative motion of components that exhibit stick-slip phenomena axe but a few examples from mechanical systems. These form a class of dynamical systems where the nonlinearity is so severe that analysis becomes formidable, especially when global behavior needs to be known. Only recently have researchers attempted to investigate such systems in terms of modern dynamical systems theory. In this work, an impact oscillator with two-sided rigid constraints is used as a paradigm for studying the characteristics of discontinuous dynamical systems. The oscillator has zero stiffness and is subjected to harmonic excitation. The system is linear without impacts. However, the impacts introduce nonlinearity and dissipation (assuming inelastic impacts). A numerical algorithm is developed for studying the global dynamics of the system. A peculiar type of solution in which the trajectories in phase space from a certain set of initial conditions merge in finite time, making the dynamics non-invertible, is investigated. Also, the effect of “grazing,” a behavior common to constrained systems, on the dynamics of the system is studied. Based on the experience gained in studying this system, the need for an efficient general-purpose numerical algorithm for solving discontinuous dynamical systems is motivated. Investigation of stress, vibration, wear, noise, etc. that are associated with impact phenomena can benefit greatly from such an algorithm.

Two Degree Of Freedom

This paper explores a two degree-of-freedom nonlinearly coupled system with two distinct potential wells. The system consists of a pair of linear mass-spring-dampers with a non-linear, mechanical coupling between them. This nonlinearity creates fractal boundaries for basins of attraction and forced well-escape response. The inherent uncertainty of these fractal boundaries is quantified for errors in the initial conditions and parameter space. This uncertainty relationship provides a measure of the final state and transient sensitivity of the system.

Several numerical approaches have been developed to capture nonlinear effects of dynamical systems. In this paper we present a mixed shooting-harmonic balance method to solve large mechanical systems with local nonlinearities efficiently. The Harmonic Balance Method as well as the shooting method have both their pros and cons. The proposed mixed shooting-HBM approach combines the efficiency of HBM and the accuracy of the shooting method and has therefore advantages of both.

Weakly Nonlinear Theory

The classical theory of modulation instability (MI) attributed to Bespalov–Talanov in optics and Benjamin–Feir for water waves is just a linear approximation of nonlinear effects and has limitations that have been corrected using the exact weakly nonlinear theory of wave propagation. We report results of experiments in both optics and hydrodynamics, which are in excellent agreement with nonlinear theory. These observations clearly demonstrate that MI has a wider band of unstable frequencies than predicted by the linear stability analysis. The range of areas where the nonlinear theory of MI can be applied is actually much larger than considered here.
