Abstract In this paper, the semi-analytical method of implicit discrete maps is employed to investigate the nonlinear dynamical behavior of a nonlinear spring pendulum. The implicit discrete maps are developed through the midpoint scheme of the corresponding differential equations of a nonlinear spring pendulum system. Using discrete mapping structures, different periodic motions are obtained for the bifurcation trees. With varying excitation amplitude, a bifurcation tree of period-1 motion to chaos is achieved through the bifurcation tree of period-1 to period-2 motions. The corresponding stability and bifurcations are studied through eigenvalue analysis. Finally, numerical illustrations of periodic motions are obtained numerically and analytically.

The vibration isolation system using a pair of oblique springs or a spring-rod mechanism as a negative stiffness mechanism exhibits a high-static low-dynamic stiffness characteristic and a nonlinear jump phenomenon when the system damping is light and the excitation amplitude is large. It is possible to remove the jump via adjusting the end trajectories of the above springs or rods. To realize this idea, the article presents a vibration isolation system with a cam–roller–spring–rod mechanism and gives the detailed numerical and experimental studies on the effects of the above mechanism on the vibration isolation performance. The comparative studies demonstrate that the vibration isolation system proposed works well and outperforms some other vibration isolation systems.

The static and dynamic bifurcations of an autonomous system associated with a twofold zero eigenvalue (of index one) are studied. Attention is focused on Hopf bifurcation solutions in the neighborhood of such a singularity. The family of limit cycles are analyzed fully by applying the formula type results of the Intrinsic Harmonic Balancing method. Thus, parameter-amplitude and amplitude-frequency relationships as well as an ordered form of approximations for the periodic motions are obtained explicitly. A verification technique, with the aid of MAPLE, is used to show the consistency of ordered approximations.

Vibration properties of most assembled mechanical systems depend on frictional damping in joints. The nonlinear transfer behavior of the frictional interfaces often provides the dominant damping mechanism in structure and plays an important role in the vibratory response of it. For improving the performance of systems, many studies have been carried out to predict measure and enhance the energy dissipation of friction. This paper presents a new approach to vibration reduction of flexible spacecraft with enhancing the energy dissipation of frictional dampers. Spacecraft is modeled as a 3 degree of freedom mass-spring system which is controlled by a lead compensator and System responses to step function evaluated. Coulomb and Jenkins element has been used as vibration suppression mechanisms in joints and sensitivity of their performance to variations of spacecraft excitation amplitude and damper properties is analyzed. The relation between frictional force and displacement derived and used in optimization of control performance. Responses of system and control effort needed for the vibration control are compared for these two frictional joints. It is shown that attitude control effort reduces, significantly with coulomb dampers and response of system improves. On the other hand, due to stick-slip phenomena in Jenkins element, we couldn’t expect the same performance from Jenkins damper.

In this paper, bifurcation trees of periodic motions to chaos in a parametric oscillator with quadratic nonlinearity are investigated analytically as one of the simplest parametric oscillators. The analytical solutions of periodic motions in such a parametric oscillator are determined through the finite Fourier series, and the corresponding stability and bifurcation analyses for periodic motions are completed. Nonlinear behaviors of such periodic motions are characterized through frequency–amplitude curves of each harmonic term in the finite Fourier series solution. From bifurcation analysis of the analytical solutions, the bifurcation trees of periodic motion to chaos are obtained analytically, and numerical illustrations of periodic motions are presented through phase trajectories and analytical spectrum. This investigation shows period-1 motions exist in parametric nonlinear systems and the corresponding bifurcation trees to chaos exist as well.
