Abstract The autoparametric vibratory system consisting of a primary spring-mass-dashpot system coupled with a damped simple pendulum serves as an useful example of two degree-of-freedom nonlinear systems that exhibit complex dynamic behavior. It exhibits 1:2 internal resonance and amplitude modulated chaos under harmonic forcing conditions. First-order averaging studies of this system using AUTO and KAOS have yielded useful information about the amplitude dynamics of this system. Response curves of the system indicate saturation and the pitchfork bifurcation sets are found to be symmetric. The period-doubling route to chaotic solutions is observed. However questions about the range of the small parameter ε (a function of the forcing amplitude) for which the solutions are valid cannot be answered by a first-order study. Some observed dynamical behavior, like saturation, may not persist when higher-order nonlinear effects are taken into account. Second-order averaging of the system, using Mathematica (Maeder, 1991; Wolfram, 1991) is undertaken to address these questions. Loss of saturation is observed in the steady-state amplitude responses. The breaking of symmetry in the various bifurcation sets becomes apparent as a consequence of ε appearing in the averaged equations. The dynamics of the system is found to be very sensitive to damping, with extremely complicated behavior arising for low values of damping. For large ε second-order averaging predicts additional Pitchfork and Hopf bifurcation points in the single-mode response.

A generalized expression for electromagnetic polarization under level crossing in a single-mode gas laser is derived up to the third order in the field strength. This is made possible by the use of the probability integral of complex arguments to avoid the Doppler limit approximation. The level crossing effect is seen to appear in the third order, and its linewidth is shown to be asymmetric. It is also broader than the Lorentzian shape usually obtained under the Doppler limit. The dimensionless intensity parameter of the laser field is seen to lose its symmetry about the resonance value in the presence of level crossing. This is attributed to incoherence among different transitions. Further, the other terms like those describing the two-photon process in the third-order value are briefly discussed.
