This paper analyzes the role of nonlinear dissipation on the universal escape oscillator. Nonlinear damping terms proportional to the power of the velocity are assumed and an investigation on its effects on the dynamics of the oscillator, such as the threshold of period-doubling bifurcation, fractal basin boundaries and how the basins of attraction are destroyed, is carried out. The results suggest that increasing the power of the nonlinear damping, has similar effects as of decreasing the damping coefficient for a linearly damped case, showing the very importance of the level or amount of energy dissipation.

This paper considers the effect of nonlinear dissipation on the basin boundaries of a driven two-well modified Rayleigh–Duffing oscillator where pure cubic, unpure cubic, pure quadratic and unpure quadratic nonlinearities are considered. By analyzing the potential, an analytic expression is found for the homoclinic orbit. The Melnikov criterion is used to examine a global homoclinic bifurcation and transition to chaos. Unpure quadratic parameter and parametric excitation amplitude effects are found on the critical Melnikov amplitude μ cr . Finally, the phase space of initial conditions is carefully examined in order to analyze the effect of the nonlinear damping, and particularly how the basin boundaries become fractalized.

This study investigates chaotic response in the spring-pendulum system. In this system beside of strange attractors, multiple regular attractors may coexist for some values of system parameters, where it is important to study the global behavior of the system using the basin boundaries of the attractors. Multiple scales method is used to distinguish the regions of stable and unstable attractors. In unstable regions, bifurcation diagram and poincare´ maps are used to study the existence of quasi-periodic and chaotic attractors. Results show that the jumping phenomena may occur when multiple regular attractors exist and for this case fractal basins of attraction are developed using numerical simulations.


A nonlinear dynamical system incorporating a time delay has an infinite­-dimensional phase space, making difficult any exploration of its basins of attraction and their boundaries. In this paper the straddle-orbit method is used to explore the basic sets lying within and governing the basin boundaries of the differential-difference equation of Minorsky. An interesting example in which these unstable boundary sets follow a period-doubling cascade to chaos is presented.

This paper reports on the effect of nonlinear damping on certain nonlinear oscillators, where analytical estimates provided by the Melnikov theory are obtained. We assume general nonlinear damping terms proportional to the power of velocity. General and useful expressions for the nonlinearly damped Duffing oscillator and for the nonlinearly damped simple pendulum are computed. They provide the critical parameters in terms of the damping coefficient and damping exponent, that is, the power of the velocity, for which complicated behavior is expected. We also consider generalized nonlinear damped systems, which may contain several nonlinear damping terms. Using the idea of Melnikov equivalence, we show that the effect of nonlinear dissipation can be equivalent to a linearly damped nonlinear oscillator with a modified damping coefficient.

In this paper, nonlinear dynamics of Duffing system with fractional order damping is investigated. The fourth-order Runge–Kutta method and tenth-order CFE-Euler method are introduced to simulate the fractional order Duffing equations. The effect of taking fractional order on system dynamics is investigated using phase diagram, bifurcation diagram and Poincaré map. The bifurcation diagram is introduced to exam the effect of excitation amplitude, frequency, and damping coefficient on the Duffing system with fractional order damping. The analysis results show that the fractional order damped Duffing system exhibits periodic motion, chaos, periodic motion, chaos, and periodic motion in turn when the fractional order varies from 0.1 to 2.0. The period doubling bifurcation route to chaos and inverse period doubling bifurcation out of chaos are clearly observed in the bifurcation diagrams with various excitation amplitude, frequency, and damping coefficient.

A fractal basin boundary is a Wada fractal basin boundary if it contains at least three different basins. The corresponding basin is called a Wada fractal basin. Previous results show that some oscillators possess Wada fractal basins with common basin boundaries. Here we find that a nonlinear vibration isolation system can possess abundant coexisting basins and every basin is a Wada fractal basin. These Wada fractal basin boundaries separate different basins in the different regions. A proper classification of these Wada fractal basins is provided according to the order of saddles and Wada numbers. Basin organization is systematic and all basins spiral outward toward the infinity. The entangled basin boundaries are described by the manifolds of saddles and basins (tongues) accumulation.

The wear resistance and wear characteristics of cluster-gradient architecture (CGA) nanostructured topocomposites are studied. The specifics of tribocontact interaction under microcutting conditions is considered. The reasons for retention of high wear resistance of this class of nanostructured topocomposites are studied. The mechanisms of energy dissipation from the tribocontact zone, due to the nanogeometry and the structural-phase structure of CGA topocomposites are analyzed. The role of triboactivated deformation and diffusion processes in providing increased wear resistance of carbide-based topocomposites is shown. They are tested under the conditions of blade processing of heat-resistant titanium alloy.

AbstractMechanical sources of nonlinear damping play a central role in modern physics, from solid-state physics to thermodynamics. The microscopic theory of mechanical dissipation suggests that nonlinear damping of a resonant mode can be strongly enhanced when it is coupled to a vibration mode that is close to twice its resonance frequency. To date, no experimental evidence of this enhancement has been realized. In this letter, we experimentally show that nanoresonators driven into parametric-direct internal resonance provide supporting evidence for the microscopic theory of nonlinear dissipation. By regulating the drive level, we tune the parametric resonance of a graphene nanodrum over a range of 40–70 MHz to reach successive two-to-one internal resonances, leading to a nearly two-fold increase of the nonlinear damping. Our study opens up a route towards utilizing modal interactions and parametric resonance to realize resonators with engineered nonlinear dissipation over wide frequency range.

AbstractChaotic phenomena are observed in several practical and scientific fields; however, the chaos is harmful to systems as they can lead them to be unstable. Consequently, the purpose of this study is to analyze the bifurcation of permanent magnet direct current (PMDC) motor and develop a controller that can suppress chaotic behavior resulted from parameter variation such as the loading effect. The nonlinear behaviors of PMDC motors were investigated by time-domain waveform, phase portrait, and Floquet theory. By varying the load torque, a period-doubling bifurcation appeared which in turn led to chaotic behavior in the system. So, a fuzzy logic controller and developing the Floquet theory techniques are applied to eliminate the bifurcation and the chaos effects. The controller is used to enhance the performance of the system by getting a faster response without overshoot or oscillation, moreover, tends to reduce the steady-state error while maintaining its stability. The simulation results emphasize that fuzzy control provides better performance than that obtained from the other controller.
