By using the foundational solutions of the linear variational equation of the unperturbed system along the homoclinic orbit as the local current coordinates system of the system in the small neighborhood of the homoclinic orbit, we discuss the bifurcation problems of nondegenerated homoclinic loops. Under the nonresonant condition, existence, uniqueness, and incoexistence of 1-homoclinic loop and 1-periodic orbit, the inexistence ofk-homoclinic loop andk-periodic orbit is obtained. Under the resonant condition, we study the existence of 1-homoclinic loop, 1-periodic orbit, 2-fold 1-periodic orbit, and two 1-periodic orbits; the coexistence of 1-homoclinic loop and 1-periodic orbit. Moreover, we give the corresponding existence fields and bifurcation surfaces. At last, we study the stability of the homoclinic loop for the two cases of non-resonant and resonant, and we obtain the corresponding criterions.

By using the foundational solutions of the linear variational equation of the unperturbed system along the heteroclinic orbits to establish the local coordinate systems in the small tubular neighborhoods of the heteroclinic orbits, we study the bifurcation problems of nontwisted heteroclinic loop with resonant eigenvalues. The existence, numbers, and existence regions of 1-heteroclinic loop, 1-homoclinic loop, 1-periodic orbit, 2-fold 1-periodic orbit, and two 1-periodic orbits are obtained. Meanwhile, we give the corresponding bifurcation surfaces.

Like for smooth systems, a typical method to produce multiple limit cycles for a given piecewise smooth planar system is via homoclinic bifurcation. Previous works only focused on limit cycles that bifurcate from homoclinic orbits of piecewise-linear systems. In this paper, we consider for the first time the same problem for a class of general nonlinear piecewise smooth systems. By introducing the Dulac map in a small neighborhood of the hyperbolic saddle, we obtain the approximation of the Poincaré map for the nonsmooth homoclinic orbit. Then, we give conditions for the stability of the homoclinic orbit and conditions under which one or two limit cycles bifurcate from it. As an example, we construct a nonlinear piecewise smooth system with two limit cycles that bifurcate from a homoclinic orbit.

The local moving frame approach is employed to study the bifurcation of a degenerate heterodimensional cycle with orbit-flip in its nontransversal orbit. Under some generic hypotheses, we provide the conditions for the existence, uniqueness and noncoexistence of the homoclinic orbit, heteroclinic orbit and periodic orbit. And we also present the coexistence conditions for the homoclinic orbit and the periodic orbit. But it is impossible for the coexistence of the periodic orbit and the persistent heterodimensional cycle or the coexistence of the homoclinic loop and the persistent heterodimensional cycle. Moreover, the double and triple periodic orbit bifurcation surfaces are established as well. Based on the bifurcation analysis, the bifurcation surfaces and the existence regions are located. An example of application is also given to demonstrate our main results.

A codimension-4 homoclinic bifurcation with one orbit flip and one inclination flip at principal eigenvalue direction resonance is considered. By introducing a local active coordinate system in some small neighborhood of homoclinic orbit, we get the Poincaré return map and the bifurcation equation. A detailed investigation produces the number and the existence of 1-homoclinic orbit, 1-periodic orbit, and double 1-periodic orbits. We also locate their bifurcation surfaces in certain regions.

The bifurcation problems of twisted heteroclinic loop with two hyperbolic critical points are studied for the case [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are the pair of principal eigenvalues of unperturbed system at the critical point [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. Under the transversal conditions, the authors obtained some results of the existence and the number of 1-homoclinic loop, 1-periodic orbit, double 1-periodic orbit, 2-homoclinic loop and 2-periodic orbit. Moreover, the relative bifurcation surfaces and the existence regions are given, and the corresponding bifurcation graphs are drawn.

The regions of stability for plain cylindrical journal bearings have been determined analytically here. The linear “variational” equation of motion has been employed to obtain the stability regions bounded by families of load-carrying capacity and operating eccentricity curves. The results were applied to the “quasi-static” equilibrium case for gas lubricated cylindrical journal bearings of L/D = 2. They show that there exists a “minimum” in the stability curves, a prediction supported by experimental evidence. The results of this work seem to bridge together observation on stability at very small clearances and large ones.

Abstract A solution is obtained for forced oscillations with nonlinear second-order terms. The stability of this solution is given by its variational equation. The boundary of stability is analyzed by both the perturbation and continued fraction methods. The amplitude of osclllation with damping terms is also determined by the iteration procedure.

AbstractPropagation of nonlinear and supernonlinear positron-acoustic periodic waves is examined in an electron-positron-ion plasma composed of static positive ions, mobile cold positrons, and q-nonextensive electrons and hot positrons. Employing the phase plane theory of planar dynamical systems, all qualitatively different phase portraits that include nonlinear positron-acoustic homoclinic orbit, nonlinear positron-acoustic periodic orbit, supernonlinear positron-acoustic homoclinic orbit, and supernonlinear positron-acoustic periodic orbit are demonstrated subjected to the parameters $q,{\mu_{1}},{\mu_{2}},{\sigma_{1}},{\sigma_{2}}$, and V. The nonlinear and supernonlinear positron-acoustic periodic wave solutions are reported for different situations through numerical computations. It is observed that the nonextensive parameter (q) acts as a controlling parameter in the dynamic motion of nonlinear and supernonlinear positron-acoustic periodic waves. The dynamic motions for the positron-acoustic traveling waves with the influence of an extrinsic periodic force are investigated through distinct qualitative approaches, such as phase portrait analysis, sensitivity analysis, time series analysis, and Poincaré section. The results of this paper may be applicable in understanding nonlinear, supernonlinear positron-acoustic periodic waves, and their chaotic motion in space plasma environments.

The bifurcations near a primary homoclinic orbit to a saddle-center are investigated in a 4-dimensional reversible system. By establishing a new kind of local moving frame along the primary homoclinic orbit and using the Melnikov functions, the existence and nonexistence of 1-homoclinic orbit and 1-periodic orbit, including symmetric 1-homoclinic orbit and 1-periodic orbit, and their corresponding codimension 1 or codimension 3 surfaces, are obtained.
