This paper revisits the resonant behavior of a harmonically-forced Duffing oscillator with specific attention to phase resonance and its relation amplitude resonance. To this end, different families resonances, namely primary (1:1), superharmonic (k:1), subharmonic (1:ν) ultra-subharmonic (k:ν) resonances are carefully studied using first higher-order averaging. When lag is calculated between k...

The particular properties of synchronization are discussed for coupled auto-oscillating systems, which are characterized by non-quadratic law of potential dependence on the coordinate. In particular, structure of the parameter plane (frequency mismatch – coupling value) is considered for coupled van der Pol – Duffing oscillators. The arrangement of synchronization tongues and the particular pro...

Time delayed feedback control is well known as a practical method for stabilizing unstable periodic orbits embedded in chaotic attractors. However, this control method still has an open problem of estimating domain of attraction for target unstable periodic orbits. In this paper, we numerically discuss the domain of attraction in Duffing systems under the control method. The disturbance to init...

We show how to achieve large-amplitude oscillation and good frequency stability in a nonlinear NEMS oscillator by using a softening nonlinearity to locally balance the hardening behaviour of the Duffing nonlinearity for a given motion amplitude. The case when the softening behaviour is obtained via electrostatic biasing is theoretically investigated, under parallel-plate assumptions, for a full...

In this paper, we analyze the damped Duffing equation by means of qualitative theory of planar systems. Under certain parametric choices, the global structure in the Poincaré phase plane of an equivalent two-dimensional autonomous system is plotted. Exact solutions are obtained by using the Lie symmetry and the coordinate transformation method, respectively. Applications of the second approach ...

The dynamics of a two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system consisting of a grounded Duffing oscillator coupled to an essentially nonlinear attachment is examined in the present study. The underlying Hamiltonian system is first considered, and its nonlinear normal modes are computed using numerical continuation and gathered in a frequencyenergy plot. Based on these results, the damped system is th...

In this paper, we investigate the synchronization of chaotic systems consisting of non-identical parametrically excited oscillators. The active control technique is employed to design control functions based on Lyapunov stability theory and Routh–Hurwitz criteria so as to achieve global chaos synchronization between a parametrically excited gyroscope and each of the parametrically excited pendu...

Abstract—A two dimensional time-dependent Duffing oscillator model of macroscopic neocortex exhibits chaos for some ranges of parameters. We embed this model in moderate noise, typical of the context presented in real neocortex, using PATHINT, a non-Monte-Carlo path-integral algorithm that is particularly adept in handling nonlinear Fokker-Planck systems. This approach shows promise to investig...
