This paper analytically and numerically presents global dynamics of the generalized Boussinesq equation (GBE) with cubic nonlinearity and harmonic excitation. The effect of the damping coefficient on the dynamical responses of the generalized Boussinesq equation is clearly revealed. Using the reductive perturbation method, an equivalent wave equation is then derived from the complex nonlinear equation of the GBE. The persistent homoclinic orbit for the perturbed equation is located through the first and second measurements, and the breaking of the homoclinic structure will generate chaos in a Smale horseshoe sense for the GBE. Numerical examples are used to test the validity of the theoretical prediction. Both theoretical prediction and numerical simulations demonstrate the homoclinic chaos for the GBE.

Generalized Boussinesq Equation

Abstract In this work, we apply “the modified reductive perturbation method” to the generalized Boussinesq equation and obtain various form of generalized KdV equations as the evolution equations. Seeking a localized travelling wave solutions for these evolution equations we determine the scale parameters g 1 and g 2, which corresponds to the correction terms in the wave speed, so as to remove the possible secularities that might occur. Depending on the sign and the values of certain parameters the resulting solutions are shown to be a solitary wave or a periodic solution. The suitability of the method is also shown by comparing the results with the exact travelling wave solution for the generalized Boussinesq equation.

Stick Slip

Abstract Systems with discontinuous dynamics can be found in diverse disciplines. Meshing gears with backlash, impact dampers, relative motion of components that exhibit stick-slip phenomena axe but a few examples from mechanical systems. These form a class of dynamical systems where the nonlinearity is so severe that analysis becomes formidable, especially when global behavior needs to be known. Only recently have researchers attempted to investigate such systems in terms of modern dynamical systems theory. In this work, an impact oscillator with two-sided rigid constraints is used as a paradigm for studying the characteristics of discontinuous dynamical systems. The oscillator has zero stiffness and is subjected to harmonic excitation. The system is linear without impacts. However, the impacts introduce nonlinearity and dissipation (assuming inelastic impacts). A numerical algorithm is developed for studying the global dynamics of the system. A peculiar type of solution in which the trajectories in phase space from a certain set of initial conditions merge in finite time, making the dynamics non-invertible, is investigated. Also, the effect of “grazing,” a behavior common to constrained systems, on the dynamics of the system is studied. Based on the experience gained in studying this system, the need for an efficient general-purpose numerical algorithm for solving discontinuous dynamical systems is motivated. Investigation of stress, vibration, wear, noise, etc. that are associated with impact phenomena can benefit greatly from such an algorithm.

We consider the blow up of solution to the initial boundary value problem for the generalized Boussinesq equation with damping term. Under some assumptions we prove that the solution with negative initial energy blows up in finite time
