This paper presents an investigation of the dynamics of two coupled non-identical FitzHugh-Nagumo neurons with delayed synaptic connection. We consider coupling strength and time delay as bifurcation parameters, and try to classify all possible dynamics which is fairly rich. The neural system exhibits a unique rest point or three ones for the different values of coupling strength by employing t...

We investigate bifurcations of burst oscillations with rectangular waveform observed in a modified Bonhöffer-van der Pol equation, which is considered as a circuit model for neurons of a feeding rhythm generator. In particular, we clarify a mechanism of properties in a one-parameter graph on the period of oscillations, showing a staircase with hysteresis jumps, by studying a successive bifurcat...

In this paper, a predator-prey relationship in the presence of prey refuge was studied. The analysis dependence locally stable equilibrium points on parameters problem carried out. Bifurcation and limit cycles for model were analyzed to show dynamical behaviour system. results showed that system is at constant m = 0.3 harvesting rate H 0.3. However, increasing decreasing or vice versa, remains ...

In this chapter the mathematical tools from bifurcation theory are used within the framework of feedback control systems. The first part deals with a simple example where the amplitude of limit cycles and the appearance of period-doubling bifurcations are controlled using a method derived from the frequency domain approach. In the second part, bifurcation theory is used to analyze the dynamical...

In this paper, we study the global dynamics of an epidemic model with vital dynamics and nonlinear incidence rate of saturated mass action. By carrying out global qualitative and bifurcation analyses, it is shown that either the number of infective individuals tends to zero as time evolves or there is a region such that the disease will be persistent if the initial position lies in the region a...

We study the dynamics of a model of white-blood-cell (WBC) production. The model consists of two compartmental differential equations with two discrete delays. We show that from normal to pathological parameter values, the system undergoes supercritical Hopf bifurcations and saddle-node bifurcations of limit cycles. We characterize the steady states of the system and perform a bifurcation analy...

In systems with switching actuators persistent motions of different nature may occur, such as limit cycles, quasi-periodic and chaotic motions. In this contribution the nature of persistent motions in an attitude control system with switching actuators subject to switching restrictions are examined as a function of controller parameters. Bifurcation diagrams are used to describe observations. I...

Complex dynamics of the most frequently used tritrophic food chain model are investigated in this paper. First it is shown that the model admits a sequence of pairs of Belyakov bifurcations (codimension-two homoclinic orbits to a critical node). Then fold and period-doubling cycle bifurcation curves associated to each pair of Belyakov points are computed and analyzed. The overall bifurcation sc...
