In this study, the critical conditions for generating chaos in a Duffing oscillator with nonlinear damping and fractional derivative are investigated. The Melnikov function of the Duffing oscillator is established based on Melnikov theory. The necessary analytical conditions and critical value curves of chaotic motion in the sense of Smale horseshoe are obtained. The numerical solutions of chaotic motion, including time history diagram, frequency spectrum diagram, phase diagram, and Poincare map, are studied. The correctness of the analytical solution is verified through a comparison of numerical and analytical calculations. The effects of linear and nonlinear parameters on chaotic motion are also analyzed. These results are relevant to the study of system dynamics.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>The nonlinear Rayleigh damping term that is introduced to the classical parametrically excited pendulum makes the parametrically excited pendulum more complex and interesting. The effect of the nonlinear damping term on the new excitable systems is investigated based on analytical techniques such as Melnikov theory. The threshold conditions for the occurrence of Smale-horseshoe chaos of this deterministic system are obtained. Compared with the existing conclusion, i.e. the smaller the damping term is, the easier the chaotic motions become when the damping term is linear, our analysis, however, finds that the smaller or the larger the damping term is, the easier the Smale-horseshoe heteroclinic chaotic motions become. Moreover, the bifurcation diagram and the patterns of attractors in Poincaré map are studied carefully. The results demonstrate the new system exhibits rich dynamical phenomena: periodic motions, quasi-periodic motions and even chaotic motions. Importantly, according to the property of transitive as well as the fractal layers for a chaotic attractor, we can verify whether a attractor is a quasi-periodic one or a chaotic one when the maximum lyapunov exponent method is difficult to distinguish. Numerical simulations confirm the analytical predictions and show that the transition from regular to chaotic motion.</p>

Chaotic motion of symmetric laminated composite arch with two hinge supports under transverse periodic excitation was investigated. The nonlinear dynamic equations of the arch are changed into the square-order and cubic nonlinear differential dynamic system by Galerkin method, and its homoclinic orbit parameter equations are also acquired. The critical conditions of horseshoe-type chaos are obtained by using Melnikov function. The influence of loading frequency on chaotic region are analysed by numerical calculation. The motion behaviors of system are described through the bifurcation diagrams, the time-history curve, phase portrait and Poincaré map. The results are given as follows. The influence of loading frequency on chaotic region are significant. When the height of arch reach some value, the system can occur horseshoe-type chaos. The system of symmetric laminated composite arch under transverse periodic excitation may occur steady motion and chaotic motion.

This paper investigates the chaotic motion in forced Duffing oscillator due to linear and nonlinear damping by using Melnikov technique. In particular, the critical value of the forcing amplitude of the nonlinear system is calculated by Melnikov technique. Further, the top Lyapunov exponent of the nonlinear system is evaluated by Wolf’s algorithm to determine whether the chaotic phenomenon of the nonlinear system actually occurs. It is concluded that the chaotic motion of the nonlinear system occurs when the forcing amplitude exceeds the critical value, and the linear and nonlinear damping can generate pronounced effects on the chaotic behavior of the forced Duffing oscillator.

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.

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.

Abstract The conditions for the (M:1) and (2M:1) resonances inside and outside of the separatrix of the parametrically driven Duffing oscillator are determined. The onset of such resonance in the vicinity of separatrix is investigated analytically and numerically. The results presented in this article can be applied to the post-buckled structures under parametric excitations.

A dynamic model of a double-disk rub-impact rotor-bearing system with rubbing fault is established. The dynamic differential equation of the system is solved by combining the numerical integration method with MATLAB. And the influence of rotor speed, disc eccentricity, and stator stiffness on the response of the rotor-bearing system is analyzed. In the rotor system, the time history diagram, the axis locus diagram, the phase diagram, and the Poincaré section diagram in different rotational speeds are drawn. The characteristics of the periodic motion, quasiperiodic motion, and chaotic motion of the system in a given speed range are described in detail. The ways of the system entering and leaving chaos are revealed. The transformation and evolution process of the periodic motion, quasiperiodic motion, and chaotic motion are also analyzed. It shows that the rotor system enters chaos by the way of the period-doubling bifurcation. With the increase of the eccentricity, the quasi-periodicity evolution is chaotic. The quasiperiodic motion evolves into the periodic three motion phenomenon. And the increase of the stator stiffness will reduce the chaotic motion period.

AbstractIn this paper, we introduce a generalization of Lyapunov’s direct method for dynamical systems with fractional damping. Hereto, we embed such systems within the fundamental theory of functional differential equations with infinite delay and use the associated stability concept and known theorems regarding Lyapunov functionals including a generalized invariance principle. The formulation of Lyapunov functionals in the case of fractional damping is derived from a mechanical interpretation of the fractional derivative in infinite state representation. The method is applied on a single degree-of-freedom oscillator first, and the developed Lyapunov functionals are subsequently generalized for the finite-dimensional case. This opens the way to a stability analysis of nonlinear (controlled) systems with fractional damping. An important result of the paper is the solution of a tracking control problem with fractional and nonlinear damping. For this problem, the classical concepts of convergence and incremental stability are generalized to systems with fractional-order derivatives of state variables. The application of the related method is illustrated on a fractionally damped two degree-of-freedom oscillator with regularized Coulomb friction and non-collocated control.

The topology of vortex lines and surfaces is examined in incompressible viscous axisymmetric flows with swirl. We argue that the evolving topology of the vorticity field must be examined in terms of axisymmetric vortex surfaces rather than lines, because only the surfaces enjoy structural stability. The meridional cross-sections of these surfaces are the orbits of a dynamical system with the azimuthal circulation being a Hamiltonian H and with time as a bifurcation parameter μ. The dependence of H on μ is governed by the Navier–Stokes equations; their numerical solutions provide H. The level curves of H establish a time history for the motion of vortex surfaces, so that the circulation they contain remains constant. Equivalently, there exists a virtual velocity field in which the motion of the vortex surfaces is frozen almost everywhere; the exceptions occur at critical points in the phase portrait where the virtual velocity is singular. The separatrices emerging from saddle points partition the phase portrait into islands; each island corresponds to a structurally stable vortex structure. By using the flux of the meridional vorticity field, we obtain a precise definition of reconnection: the transfer of flux between islands. Local analysis near critical points shows that the virtual velocity (because of its singular behaviour) performs ‘cut-and-connect’ of vortex surfaces with the correct rate of circulation transfer - thereby validating the long-standing viscous ‘cut-and-connect’ scenario which implicitly assumes that vortex surfaces (and vortex lines) can be followed over a short period of time in a viscous fluid. Bifurcations in the phase portrait represent (contrary to reconnection) changes in the topology of the vorticity field, where islands spontaneously appear or disappear. Often such topology changes are catastrophic, because islands emerge or perish with finite circulation. These and other phenomena are illustrated by direct numerical simulations of vortex rings at a Reynolds number of 800.
