Many problems of engineering and applied science result in the consideration of piecewise-smooth dynamical systems. Examples are relay and pulse-width control systems, impact oscillators, power converters, and various electronic circuits with piecewise-smooth characteristics. The subject of investigation in the present paper is the dynamical model of a constant voltage converter which represents a three-dimensional piecewise-smooth system of nonautonomous differential equations. A specific type of phenomena that arise in the dynamics of piecewise-smooth systems are the so-called border-collision bifurcations. The paper contains a detailed analysis of this type of bifurcational transition in the dynamics of the voltage converter, in particular, the merging and subsequent disappearance of cycles of different types, change of solution type, and period-doubling, -tripling, -quadrupling and -quintupling. We show that a denumerable set of unstable cycles can arise together with stable cycles at border-collision bifurcations. The characteristic peculiarities of border-collision bifurcational transitions in piecewise-smooth systems are described and we provide a comparison with some recent results.

Earlier investigations have demonstrated how a quasiperiodic orbit in a three-dimensional smooth map can bifurcate into a quasiperiodic orbit with two disjoint loops or into a quasiperiodic orbit of double the length in the shape of a Möbius strip. Using a three-dimensional piecewise smooth (PWS) normal form map, we show that in a piecewise smooth system, in addition to the mechanisms reported earlier, new pathways of creation of tori with multiple loops may result from border collision bifurcations. We also illustrate the occurrence of multiple attractor bifurcations due to the interplay between the stable and the unstable manifolds. Two techniques of analyzing bifurcations of ergodic tori are available in literature: the second Poincaré section method and the Lyapunov bundle method. We have shown that these methods can explain the period-doubling and double covering bifurcations in PWS systems, but fail in some cases — especially those which result from nonsmoothness of the system. We have shown that torus bifurcations due to border collision can be explained by change in eigenvalues of the unstable fixed points.

Smooth Map

In this work, we study the dynamics of a three-dimensional, continuous, piecewise smooth map. Much of the nontrivial dynamics of this map occur when its fixed point or periodic orbit hits the switching manifold resulting in the so-called border collision bifurcation. We study the local and global bifurcation phenomena resulting from such borderline collisions. The conditions for the occurrence of nonsmooth period-doubling, saddle-node, and Neimark–Sacker bifurcations are derived. We show that dangerous border collision bifurcation can also occur in this map. Global bifurcations arise in connection with the occurrence of nonsmooth Neimark–Sacker bifurcation by which a spiral attractor turns into a saddle focus. The global dynamics are systematically explored through the computation of resonance tongues and numerical continuation of mode-locked invariant circles. We demonstrate the transition to chaos through the breakdown of mode-locked torus by degenerate period-doubling bifurcation, homoclinic tangency, etc. We show that in this map a mode-locked torus can be transformed into a quasiperiodic torus if there is no global bifurcation.

In this paper, we discuss the bifurcation of periodic orbits in planar piecewise smooth systems with discontinuities on finitely many smooth curves intersecting at the origin. We assume that the unperturbed system has either a limit cycle or a periodic annulus such that the limit cycle or each periodic orbit in the periodic annulus crosses every switching curve transversally multiple times. When the unperturbed system has a limit cycle, we give the conditions for its stability and persistence. When the unperturbed system has a periodic annulus, we obtain the expression of the first order Melnikov function and establish sufficient conditions under which limit cycles can bifurcate from the annulus. As an example, we construct a concrete nonlinear planar piecewise smooth system with three zones with 11 limit cycles bifurcated from the periodic annulus.

In this paper, we extend the well-known Melnikov method for smooth systems to a class of periodic perturbed planar hybrid piecewise-smooth systems. In this class, the switching manifold is a straight line which divides the plane into two zones, and the dynamics in each zone is governed by a smooth system. When a trajectory reaches the separation line, then a reset map is applied instantaneously before entering the trajectory in the other zone. We assume that the unperturbed system is a piecewise Hamiltonian system which possesses a piecewise-smooth homoclinic solution transversally crossing the switching manifold. Then, we study the persistence of the homoclinic orbit under a nonautonomous periodic perturbation and the reset map. To achieve this objective, we obtain the Melnikov function to measure the distance of the perturbed stable and unstable manifolds and present the theorem for homoclinic bifurcations for the class of planar hybrid piecewise-smooth systems. Furthermore, we employ the obtained Melnikov function to detect the chaotic boundaries for a concrete planar hybrid piecewise-smooth system.

The Stability

Piecewise smooth maps have been a focus of study for scientists in a wide range of research fields. These maps show qualitatively different types of bifurcations than those exhibited by generic smooth maps. We present a theoretical framework for analyzing three-dimensional piecewise smooth maps by deriving a suitable normal form and then finding the stability criteria for periodic orbits. We also show by numerical simulation different types of border collision bifurcations that can occur in such a map. We have also been able to observe a border collision bifurcation from a period-2 to a quasiperiodic orbit.
