The two-dimensional neuron model can not only reproduce abundant firing patterns, but also satisfy the research of dynamical behavior because of its nonlinear characteristics. It is the most simplified model that includes the fast and slow variables required for neuron firing. In this paper, the dynamic characteristics of two-dimensional neuron model are described by both analytical and numerical methods, and the influence of model parameters and external stimuli on dynamic characteristics is described. The firing characteristics of the Prescott model under external electrical stimulation are studied, and the influence of electrophysiological parameters on the firing characteristics is analyzed. The saddle-node bifurcation and Hopf bifurcation characteristics are studied through the distribution of equilibrium points. It is found that there are critical saddle-node bifurcation and critical Hopf bifurcation in the Prescott model. And the value range of the key parameters that cause the critical bifurcation of the model is obtained by analytical methods.

A quantitative mathematical model of neurons should not only include enough details to consider the dynamics of single neurons but also minimize the complexity of the model so that the model calculation is convenient. The two-dimensional Prescott model provides a good compromise between the authenticity and computational efficiency of a neuron. The dynamic characteristics of the Prescott model under external electrical stimulation are studied by combining analytical and numerical methods in this paper. Through the analysis of the equilibrium point distribution, the influence of model parameters and external stimulus on the dynamic characteristics is described. The occurrence conditions and the type of Hopf bifurcation in the Prescott model are analyzed, and the analytical determination formula of the Hopf bifurcation type in the neuron model is obtained. Washout filter control is used to change the Hopf bifurcation type, so that the subcritical Hopf bifurcation transforms to supercritical Hopf bifurcation, so as to realize the change of the dynamic characteristics of the model.

In this study, we examine the bifurcation scenarios of a two-dimensional Hindmarsh–Rose type model [Tsuji et al., 2007] with four parameters and simulate some resemblances of neurophysiological features for this model using spike-and-reset conditions. We present possible classifications based on the results of the following assessments: (1) the number and stability of the equilibria are analyzed in detail using a table to demonstrate the matter in which the stability of the equilibrium changes and to determine which two equilibria collapse through the saddle-node bifurcation; (2) the sufficient conditions for an Andronov–Hopf bifurcation and a saddle-node bifurcation are mathematically confirmed; and (3) we elaborately evaluate the sufficient conditions for the Bogdanov–Takens (BT) and Bautin bifurcations. Several numerical simulations for these conditions are also presented. In particular, two types of bistable behaviors are numerically demonstrated: the BT and Bautin bifurcations. Notably, all of the bifurcation curves in the domain of the remaining parameters are similar when the time scale is large. Additionally, to show the potential for a limit cycle, the existence of a trapping region is demonstrated. These results present a variety of diverse behaviors for this model. The results of this study will be helpful in assessing suitable parameters for fitting the resemblances of experimental observations.

An SIS propagation model with the nonlinear rewiring rate on an adaptive network is considered. It is found by bifurcation analysis that the model has the complex behaviors which include the transcritical bifurcation, saddle-node bifurcation, Hopf bifurcation, and Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation. Especially, a bifurcation curve with “S” shape emerges due to the nonlinear rewiring rate, which leads to multiple equilibria and twice saddle-node bifurcations. Numerical simulations show that the model admits a homoclinic bifurcation and a saddle-node bifurcation of the limit cycle.

A new bifurcation analysis method for analyzing and predicting the complex nonlinear traffic phenomena based on the macroscopic traffic flow model is presented in this paper. This method makes use of variable substitution to transform a traditional traffic flow model into a new model which is suitable for the stability analysis. Although the substitution seems to be simple, it can extend the range of the variable to infinity and build a relationship between the traffic congestion and the unstable system in the phase plane. So the problem of traffic flow could be converted into that of system stability. The analysis identifies the types and stabilities of the equilibrium solutions of the new model and gives the overall distribution structure of the nearby equilibrium solutions in the phase plane. Then we deduce the existence conditions of the models Hopf bifurcation and saddle-node bifurcation and find some bifurcations such as Hopf bifurcation, saddle-node bifurcation, Limit Point bifurcation of cycles and Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation. Furthermore, the Hopf bifurcation and saddle-node bifurcation are selected as the starting point of density temporal evolution and it will be helpful for improving our understanding of stop-and-go wave and local cluster effects observed in the free-way traffic.

Coherence resonance at a saddle-node bifurcation point and the corresponding stochastic firing patterns are simulated in a theoretical neuronal model. The characteristics of noise-induced neural firing pattern, such as exponential decay in histogram of interspike interval (ISI) series, independence and stochasticity within ISI series are identified. Firing pattern similar to the simulated results was discovered in biological experiment on a neural pacemaker. The difference between this firing and integer multiple firing generated at a Hopf bifurcation point is also given. The results not only revealed the stochastic dynamics near a saddle-node bifurcation, but also gave practical approaches to identify the saddle-node bifurcation and to distinguish it from the Hopf bifurcation in neuronal system. In addition, many previously observed firing patterns can be attribute to stochastic firing pattern near such a saddle-node bifurcation.

This work deals with the bifurcation phenomena that occur during the open-loop operation of a single-fed three-phase wound rotor induction motor. This paper demonstrates the occurrence of saddle-node bifurcation, hysteresis, supercritical saddle-node bifurcation, cusp and Hopf bifurcation during the individual operation of this electromechanical system. Some experimental results associated with the bifurcation phenomena are presented.

The bifurcation properties of a predator prey system with refuge and constant harvesting are investigated. The number of the equilibria and the properties of the system will change due to refuge and harvesting, which leads to the occurrence of several kinds bifurcation phenomena, for example, the saddle-node bifurcation, Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation, Hopf bifurcation, backward bifurcation, separatrix connecting a saddle-node and a saddle bifurcation and heteroclinic bifurcation, and so forth. Our main results reveal much richer dynamics of the system compared to the system with no refuge and harvesting.

<abstract><p>In this paper, in order to explore the inhibition mechanism of algicidal bacteria on algae, we constructed an aquatic amensalism model with non-selective harvesting and Allee effect. Mathematical works mainly gave some critical conditions to guarantee the existence and stability of equilibrium points, and derived some threshold conditions for saddle-node bifurcation and transcritical bifurcation. Numerical simulation works mainly revealed that non-selective harvesting played an important role in amensalism dynamic relationship. Meanwhile, we proposed some biological explanations for transcritical bifurcation and saddle-node bifurcation from the aspect of algicidal bacteria controlling algae. Finally, all these results were expected to be useful in studying dynamical behaviors of aquatic amensalism ecosystems and biological algae controlling technology.</p></abstract>
