In this paper, we first analyze the chaotic dynamics of a higher-dimensional nonlinear system for a composite laminated plate in the case of 1:3:3 internal resonances with the theory of normal form and the energy-phase method. The theory of normal form is used to obtain the simpler normal form of the system. The energy-phase method is employed to analyze the multi-pulse chaotic dynamics of the higher-dimensional nonlinear system for a composite laminated plate. Moreover, the numerical simulation is performed to find the multi-pulse chaotic motion of the composite laminated plate. The global theory analysis and the results of numerical simulation demonstrate that the existence of the periodic motions and chaotic motions with the jumping phenomena in the composite laminated 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 resonant chaotic dynamics of a symmetric cross-ply composite laminated plate are studied using the exponential dichotomies and an averaging procedure for the first time. The partial differential governing equations of motion for the symmetric cross-ply composite laminated plate are derived by using Reddy’s third-order shear deformation plate theory and von Karman type equation. The partial differential governing equations of motion are discretized into two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear systems including the quadratic and cubic nonlinear terms by using Galerkin method. There exists a fixed point of saddle-focus in the linear part for two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system. The Melnikov method containing the terms of the nonhyperbolic mode is developed to investigate the resonant chaotic motions of the symmetric cross-ply composite laminated plate. The obtained results indicate that the nonhyperbolic mode of the symmetric cross-ply composite laminated plate does not affect the critical conditions in the occurrence of chaotic motions in the resonant case. When the resonant chaotic motion occurs, we can draw a conclusion that the resonant chaotic motions of the hyperbolic subsystem are shadowed for the full nonlinear system of the symmetric cross-ply composite laminated 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 energy phase 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 multi-pulse orbits and chaotic dynamics of the cantilevered pipe conveying pulsating fluid with harmonic external force are studied in detail. The nonlinear geometric deformation of the pipe and the Kelvin constitutive relation of the pipe material are considered. The nonlinear governing equations of motion for the cantilevered pipe conveying pulsating fluid are determined by using Hamilton principle. The four-dimensional averaged equation under the case of principle parameter resonance, 1/2 subharmonic resonance and 1:2 internal resonance and primary parametric resonance is obtained by directly using the method of multiple scales and Galerkin approach to the partial differential governing equation of motion for the cantilevered pipe. The system is transformed to the averaged equation. From the averaged equation, the theory of normal form is used to find the explicit formulas of normal form. Based on normal form obtained, the energy phase method is utilized to analyze the multi-pulse global bifurcations and chaotic dynamics for the cantilevered pipe conveying pulsating fluid. The analysis of global dynamics indicates that there exist the multi-pulse jumping orbits in the perturbed phase space of the averaged equation. From the averaged equations obtained, the chaotic motions and the Shilnikov type multi-pulse orbits of the cantilevered pipe are found by using numerical simulation. The results obtained above mean the existence of the chaos for the Smale horseshoe sense for the pulsating fluid conveying cantilevered pipe.

An analysis on the chaotic dynamics of a six-dimensional nonlinear system which represents the averaged equation of an axially moving viscoelastic belt is given in this paper for the first time. We combine the theory of normal form and the global perturbation method to investigate the global bifurcations and chaotic dynamics of the axially moving viscoelastic belt. Firstly, the theory of normal form is used to reduce six-dimensional averaged equation to the simpler normal form. Then, the global perturbation method is employed to analyze the global bifurcations and chaotic dynamics of six-dimensional nonlinear system. The analysis results indicate that there exist the homoclinic bifurcations and the single-pulse in six-dimensional averaged equation. Finally, numerical simulations are also used to investigate the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of the axially moving viscoelastic belt. The results of numerical simulations demonstrate that there exist the chaotic motions and the jumping orbits of the axially moving viscoelastic belt.

This paper focuses on the multi-pulse orbits and chaotic dynamics of the six-dimensional nonlinear system for the composite laminated piezoelectric rectangular plate using the theory of normal form and the energy-phase method. Taking into account that the averaged equation has a double zero and two pairs of pure imaginary eigenvalues, we use the theory of normal form to simplify the six-dimensional averaged equation to a simpler normal form. The energy-phase method is to be extended to study the dynamical characteristic of the six-dimensional nonlinear system. The global theory analysis indicates that there exist the homoclinic bifurcation and Shilnikov type multi-pulse jumping chaotic dynamics in the system under the small perturbation. In order to illustrate the theoretical predictions, the Runge-Kutta algorithm is used to perform numerical simulation. The results of numerical simulations also demonstrate that the jumping phenomena of orbits can occur in the composite laminated piezoelectric rectangular plate.

The multipulse homoclinic orbits and chaotic dynamics of a reinforced composite plate with the carbon nanotubes (CNTs) under combined in-plane and transverse excitations are studied in the case of 1 : 1 internal resonance. The method of multiple scales is adopted to derive the averaged equations. From the averaged equations, the normal form theory is applied to reduce the equations to a simpler normal form associated with a double zero and a pair of pure imaginary eigenvalues. The energy-phase method proposed by Haller and Wiggins is utilized to examine the global bifurcations and chaotic dynamics of the CNT-reinforced composite plate. The analytical results demonstrate that the multipulse Shilnikov-type homoclinic orbits and chaotic motions exist in the system. Homoclinic trees are constructed to illustrate the repeated bifurcations of multipulse solutions. In order to verify the theoretical results, numerical simulations are given to show the multipulse Shilnikov-type chaotic motions in the CNT-reinforced composite plate. The results obtained here imply that the motion is chaotic in the sense of the Smale horseshoes for the CNT-reinforced composite plate.
