Abstract

A general algorithm is presented for estimating the nonlinear instability threshold, σc\sigma_c, for subcritical transitions in systems where the linearized dynamics is significantly non-normal (i.e. subcritical bifurcations of {\em Takens-Bogdanov} type). The NN-dimensional degenerate node is presented as an example. The predictions are then compared to numerical studies with excellent agreement.
