Bifurcation Of Limit Cycle

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In the present study, a nonlinear model is formulated to demonstrate crop - weed interactions, when they both grow together on agricultural land and compete with each other for the same resources like sunlight, water, nutrients etc., under the aegis of herbicides. The developed model is mathematically analyzed through qualitative theory of differential equations to demonstrate rich dynamical characteristics of the system, which are important to be known for maximizing crop yield. The qualitative results reveal that the system not only exhibits stability of more than one equilibrium states, but also undergoes saddle - node, transcritical and Hopf bifurcations, however, depending on parametric combinations. The results of saddle - node and transcritical bifurcations help to plan strategies for maximum crop yield by putting check over the parameters responsible for the depletion of crops due to their interaction with weeds and herbicides. Hopf - bifurcation shows bifurcation of limit cycle through Hopf - bifurcation threshold, which supports that crop - weed interactions are not always of regular type, but they can also be periodic.</p>

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.

Purpose This paper aims to assess agri-environment (AE) scheme options on cultivated agricultural land in England for their impact on agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It considers both absolute emissions reduction and reduction incorporating yield decrease and potential production displacement. Similarities with Ecological Focus Areas (EFAs) introduced in 2015 as part of the post-2014 Common Agricultural Policy reform, and their potential impact, are considered. Design/methodology/approach A life-cycle analysis approach derives GHG emissions for 18 key representative options. Meta-modelling is used to account for spatial environmental variables (annual precipitation, soil type and erosion risk), supplementing the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change methodology. Findings Most options achieve an absolute reduction in GHG emissions compared to an existing arable crop baseline but at the expense of removing land from production, risking production displacement. Soil and water protection options designed to reduce soil erosion and nitrate leaching decrease GHG emissions without loss of crop yield. Undersown spring cereals support decreased inputs and emissions per unit of crop yield. The most valuable AE options identified are included in the proposed EFAs, although lower priority is afforded to some. Practical implications Recommendations are made where applicable to modify option management prescriptions and to further reduce GHG emissions. Originality/value This research is relevant and of value to land managers and policy makers. A dichotomous key summarises AE option prioritisation and supports GHG mitigation on cultivated land in England. The results are also applicable to other European countries.

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.
