This paper proposes a novel chaotic jerk system, which is defined on four domains, separated by codimension-2 discontinuity surfaces. The dynamics of the proposed system are conveniently described and analyzed through a generalization of the Poincaré map which is constructed via an explicit solution of each subsystem. This provides an approach to formulate a robust bifurcation problem as a nonlinear inhomogeneous eigenvalue problem. Also, we establish some criteria for the existence of a period-doubling bifurcation and discuss some of the interesting categories of complex behavior such as multiple period-doubling bifurcations and chaotic behavior when the trajectory undergoes a segment of sliding motion. Our results emphasize that the sharp switches in the behavior are mainly responsible for generating new and unique qualitative behavior of a simple linear system as compared to the nonlinear continuous system.

Numerical investigations of the global behavior of a model of the convective flow of a binary mixture in a porous medium are reported. We find a complex behavior characterized by the presence of coexisting periodic, quasiperiodic and chaotic attractors. Bifurcations of periodic solutions and routes to chaos via type-I intermittency and period-doubling bifurcations are described. Boundary crises and band merging crises have also been observed.

We study the effect of linear dissipative forces on the chaotic behavior of coupled quartic oscillators with two degrees of freedom. The effect of quadratic Rayleigh dissipation functions, one with diagonal coefficients only and the other with nondiagonal coefficients as well are studied. It is found that the effect of Rayleigh Dissipation function with diagonal coefficients is to suppress chaos in the system and to lead the system to its equilibrium state. However, with a dissipation function with nondiagonal elements, other types of behaviors — including fixed point attractor, periodic attractors and even chaotic attractors — are possible even when there is no external driving. In such a system the route to chaos is through period-doubling bifurcations. This result contradicts the view that linear dissipation always causes decay of oscillations in oscillator models.

Creep groan is the undesirable vibration observed in the brake pad and disc as brakes are applied during low-speed driving. The presence of friction leads to nonlinear behavior even in simple models of this phenomenon. This paper uses tools from bifurcation theory to investigate creep groan behavior in a nonlinear 3-degrees-of-freedom mathematical model. Three areas of operational interest are identified, replicating results from previous studies: region 1 contains repelling equilibria and attracting periodic orbits (creep groan); region 2 contains both attracting equilibria and periodic orbits (creep groan and no creep groan, depending on initial conditions); region 3 contains attracting equilibria (no creep groan). The influence of several friction model parameters on these regions is presented, which identify that the transition between static and dynamic friction regimes has a large influence on the existence of creep groan. Additional investigations discover the presence of several bifurcations previously unknown to exist in this model, including Hopf, torus and period-doubling bifurcations. This insight provides valuable novel information about the nature of creep groan and indicates that complex behavior can be discovered and explored in relatively simple models.

Nonlinear oscillations of a single-degree-of-freedom, parametrically-excited system are considered. The stiffness involves quadratic and cubic nonlinearities and models a shallow arch or buckled mechanism. The excitation frequency is assumed to be close to twice the natural frequency of the system. Numerical integration is used to obtain phase plane portraits, power spectra, and Poincare´ maps for large-time motions. Period-doubling bifurcations and several types of limit cycles and chaotic behavior are observed. Approximate analytical techniques are applied to analyze some of the limit cycles and transitions of behavior. The results are used to estimate the parameter region in which chaos may occur.

The model introduced by Goodwin [1967] in "A Growth Cycle" represents a milestone in the nonlinear modeling of economic dynamics. On the basis of a few simple assumptions, the Goodwin Model (GM) is formulated exactly as the well-known Lotka–Volterra system, in terms of the two variables "wage share" and "employment rate". A number of extensions have been proposed with the aim to make the model more robust, in particular, to obtain structural stability, lacking in GM original formulation. We propose a new extension that: (a) removes the limiting hypothesis of "Harrod-neutral" technical progress: (b) on the line of Lotka–Volterra models with adaptation, introduces the concept of "memory", which plays a relevant role in the dynamics of economic systems. As a consequence, an additional equation appears, the validity of the model is substantially extended and a rich phenomenology is obtained, in particular, transition to chaotic behavior via period-doubling bifurcations.

In this paper, we study the dynamics of a forced nonlinear oscillator with inertial and elastic symmetric nonlinearities using modern nonlinear, bifurcation and chaos theories. The results for the response have shown that, for a certain combination of physical parameters, this oscillator exhibits a chaotic behavior or a transition to chaos through a sequence of period doubling bifurcations. The main objective of this paper is to control the chaotic behavior for this type of oscillator. A nonlinear estimation-based controller is proposed and the transient performance is investigated. The design of the parameter update mechanism is analyzed while discussing ways to extend its performance to further account for other types of uncertainties. We examine robustness problems as well as ways to tune the controller parameters. Simulation results are presented for the uncontrolled and controlled cases, verifying the effectiveness and the capability of the proposed controller. Finally, a discussion and conclusions are given with possible future extensions.

In this paper, the dynamics of a 3D autonomous dissipative nonlinear system of ODEs-Rössler prototype-4 system, was investigated. Using Lyapunov-Andronov theory, we obtain a new analytical formula for the first Lyapunov’s (focal) value at the boundary of stability of the corresponding equilibrium state. On the other hand, the global analysis reveals that the system may exhibit the phenomena of Shilnikov chaos. Further, it is shown via analytical calculations that the considered system can be presented in the form of a linear oscillator with one nonlinear automatic regulator. Finally, it is found that for some new combinations of parameters, the system demonstrates chaotic behavior and transition from chaos to regular behavior is realized through inverse period-doubling bifurcations.

This chapter considers the dynamical behavior of a new form of fractional order three-dimensional continuous time prey-predator system and its discretized counterpart. Existence and uniqueness of solutions is obtained. The dynamic nature of the model is discussed through local stability analysis of the steady states. Qualitative behavior of the model reveals rich and complex dynamics as exhibited by the discrete-time fractional order model. Moreover, the bifurcation theory is applied to investigate the presence of Neimark-Sacker and period-doubling bifurcations at the coexistence steady state taking h as a bifurcation parameter for the discrete fractional order system. Also, the trajectories, phase diagrams, limit cycles, bifurcation diagrams, and chaotic attractors are obtained for biologically meaningful sets of parameter values for the discretized system. Finally, the analytical results are strengthened with appropriate numerical examples and they demonstrate the chaotic behavior over a range of parameters. Chaos control is achieved by the hybrid control method.

This paper addresses the complex nonlinear dynamics involved in controlling chaos in power systems using bifurcation diagrams, time responses, phase portraits, Poincaré maps, and frequency spectra. Our results revealed that nonlinearities in power systems produce period-doubling bifurcations, which can lead to chaotic motion. Analysis based on the Lyapunov exponent and Lyapunov dimension was used to identify the onset of chaotic behavior. We also developed a continuous feedback control method based on synchronization characteristics for suppressing of chaotic oscillations. The results of our simulation support the feasibility of using the proposed method. The robustness of parametric perturbations on a power system with synchronization control was analyzed using bifurcation diagrams and Lyapunov stability theory.
