Piecewise linear systems constitute a class of nonlinear systems which have recently attracted the interest of researchers because of their interesting properties and the wide range of applications from which they arise. Different authors have used reduced forms when studying these systems, mostly in the case where they are observable. In this work, we focus on bimodal continuous dynamical systems (those consisting of two linear systems on each side of a given hyperplane, having continuous dynamics along that hyperplane) depending on two or three state variables, which are the most common piecewise linear systems found in practice. Reduced forms are obtained for general systems, not necessarily observable. As an application, we calculate the dimension of the equivalence classes.

Abstract A generalized solution methodology based on piecewise linear vector fields is proposed for piecewise linear systems with singular regions or asymmetric restoring forces which vary spatially and temporally. In matrix representation for these systems, state variables in each region can be explicitly expressed as a function of the time the orbit spends between two boundaries or the time the orbit takes to pass through the boundary. The time can be determined by the Brent method, and periodic solutions can then be obtained. Analytical solutions are validated on a system with 3-regions of displacement and 2-regions of time, a circumferential vibration of gear meshing system, by using the newly developed numerical method.

Many natural phenomena can be modeled as discontinuous dynamical systems separated by a nonregular line. The number and distribution of limit cycles in discontinuous linear systems are important topics for research. In this paper, we focus on the limit cycles created by discontinuous planar piecewise linear systems separated by a nonregular line of center–center type, and prove that such systems have at most two limit cycles, which can be reached. Furthermore, the two limit cycles are nested and intersect the separation line at two points or four points, that is, either both intersect the separation line at two points or one intersects the separation line at two points and the other one at four points.

The work presents a mesoscopic approach to general systems modelled by dynamical systems. The quantum formulation is possible to be obtained by their quantum formulation from a second order Hamiltonian. However, only autonomous linear systems are proved to obtain a Hamiltonian like this. Some application cases are presented, and a discussion about how to generalize the formalism to non-linear dynamical systems is sketched.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/IFDP.2016.2795

Abstract A new method is presented for determining periodic steady state response of piecewise linear dynamical systems with time varying coefficients. As an example mechanical model, a gear-pair system with backlash is examined, under the action of a constant torque. Originally, some useful insight is gained on the type of motions expected by investigating the response of a weakly nonlinear Mathieu-Duffing oscillator, subjected to a constant external load. The information obtained is then used in seeking the appropriate form of approximate periodic solutions of the piecewise linear system. Finally, these solutions are determined by developing a new analytical method. This method combines elements from approaches applied for piecewise linear systems with constant coefficients as well as classical perturbation techniques applied for systems with time varying coefficients. The validity and accuracy of the approach is verified by numerical results. In addition, response diagrams are presented, illustrating the effect of the constant load and the damping on the gear-pair response.

We investigate Newton-type optimization methods for solving piecewise linear systems (PLSs) with nondegenerate coefficient matrix. Such systems arise, for example, from the numerical solution of linear complementarity problem, which is useful to model several learning and optimization problems. In this letter, we propose an effective damped Newton method, PLS-DN, to find the exact (up to machine precision) solution of nondegenerate PLSs. PLS-DN exhibits provable semiiterative property, that is, the algorithm converges globally to the exact solution in a finite number of iterations. The rate of convergence is shown to be at least linear before termination. We emphasize the applications of our method in modeling, from a novel perspective of PLSs, some statistical learning problems such as box-constrained least squares, elitist Lasso (Kowalski & Torreesani, 2008 ), and support vector machines (Cortes & Vapnik, 1995 ). Numerical results on synthetic and benchmark data sets are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of PLS-DN on these problems.

We show that a planar slow–fast piecewise-linear (PWL) system with three zones admits limit cycles that share a lot of similarity with van der Pol canards, in particular an explosive growth. Using phase-space compactification, we show that these quasi-canard cycles are strongly related to a bifurcation at infinity. Furthermore, we investigate a limiting case in which we show the existence of a continuum of canard homoclinic connections that coexist for a single-parameter value and with amplitude ranging from an order of ε to an order of 1, a phenomenon truly associated with the non-smooth character of this system and which we call super-explosion .
