The multi-pulse Shilnikov orbits and chaotic dynamics for a parametrically excited, simply supported rectangular buckled thin plate are studied by using the extended Melnikov method. Based on von Karman type equation and the Galerkin’s approach, two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system is obtained for the rectangular thin plate. The extended Melnikov method is directly applied to the non-autonomous governing equations of the thin plate. The results obtained here show that the multipulse chaotic motions can occur in the thin plate.

This paper presents an analysis on the nonlinear dynamics and multi-pulse chaotic motions of a simply-supported symmetric cross-ply composite laminated rectangular thin plate with the parametric and forcing excitations. Firstly, based on the Reddy’s three-order shear deformation plate theory and the model of the von Karman type geometric nonlinearity, the nonlinear governing partial differential equations of motion for the composite laminated rectangular thin plate are derived by using the Hamilton’s principle. Then, using the second-order Galerkin discretization approach, the partial differential governing equations of motion are transformed to nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The case of the primary parametric resonance and 1:1 internal resonance is considered. Four-dimensional averaged equation is obtained by using the method of multiple scales. From the averaged equation obtained here, the theory of normal form is used to give the explicit expressions of normal form. Based on normal form, the extended Melnikov method is utilized to analyze the global bifurcations and multi-pulse chaotic dynamics of the composite laminated rectangular thin plate. The results obtained above illustrate the existence of the chaos for the Smale horseshoe sense in a parametrical and forcing excited composite laminated thin plate. The chaotic motions of the composite laminated rectangular thin plate are also found by using numerical simulation. The results of numerical simulation also indicate that there exist different shapes of the multi-pulse chaotic motions for the composite laminated rectangular thin plate.

The Shilnikov-type multipulse orbits and chaotic dynamics for a simply supported rectangular thin plate under combined parametric and external excitations are studied in this paper for the first time. The rectangular thin plate is subjected to spatially and temporally varying transversal and in-plane excitations, simultaneously. The formulas of the rectangular thin plate are derived from the von Kármán equation and Galerkin's method. The method of multiple scales is used to find the averaged equation in the case of 1:2 internal resonance. Based on the averaged equation, the theory of normal form is used to obtain the explicit expressions of normal form associated with a double zero and a pair of purely imaginary eigenvalues using the Maple program. The dissipative version of the energy-phase method is utilized to analyze the multipulse global bifurcations and chaotic dynamics of a parametrically and externally excited rectangular thin plate. The global dynamical analysis indicates that there exist the multipulse jumping orbits in the perturbed phase space of the averaged equation for a parametrically and externally excited rectangular thin plate. These results show that the chaotic motions of the multipulse Shilnikov-type can occur for a parametrically and externally excited rectangular thin plate. Numerical simulation results are presented to verify the analytical predictions. It is also found from the results of numerical simulation that the Shilnikov-type multipulse orbits exist for a parametrically and externally excited thin plate.

The global bifurcations and multi-pulse chaotic dynamics of a simply supported laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular thin plate under combined parametric and transverse excitations are investigated in this paper for the first time. The formulas of the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular plate are derived by using the von Karman-type equation, the Reddy’s third-order shear deformation plate theory and the Galerkin’s approach. The extended Melnikov method is improved to enable us to analyze directly the non-autonomous nonlinear dynamical system, which is applied to the non-autonomous governing equations of motion for the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular thin plate. The results obtained here indicate that the multi-pulse chaotic motions can occur in the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular thin plate. Numerical simulation is also employed to find the multi-pulse chaotic motions of the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular thin plate.

We investigate the global bifurcations and multipulse chaotic dynamics of a simply supported laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular thin plate under combined parametric and transverse excitations. We analyze directly the nonautonomous governing equations of motion for the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular thin plate. The results obtained here indicate that the multipulse chaotic motions can occur in the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular thin plate. Numerical simulations including the phase portraits and Lyapunov exponents are used to analyze the complex nonlinear dynamic behaviors of the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular thin plate.
