In this work, we study the dynamics of an impact hybrid system. We built applications called ZDM (Zero Discontinuity Mapping) and PDM (Poincar\'e Discontinuity Mapping), for points in a neighbourhood of the 4 order regular grazing point,…

The problem of damping a system of linear oscillators is considered. The problem is solved by using a control in the form of dry friction. The motion of the system under the control is governed by a system of differential equations with…

In this paper, conformal fractional order discretization [20, 24, 25] is used to analyze bifurcation analysis and stability of a predator-prey system. A continuous model has been discretized into a discrete one while preserving the…

In piecewise-smooth differential systems, a hyperbolic limit cycle of a subsystem loses its structural stability if it grazes the switching manifold at a tangent point. Such a cycle is called a grazing loop and in this paper we investigate…

The unique fluctuation-dissipation theorem for equilibrium stands in contrast with the wide variety of nonequilibrium linear response formulae. Their most traditional approach is "analytic", which, in the absence of detailed balance,…

Stability is a fundamental notion in dynamical systems and control theory that, traditionally understood, describes asymptotic behavior of solutions around an equilibrium point. This notion may be characterized abstractly as continuity of a…

The dynamics of a one-degree of freedom oscillator with arbitrary polynomial non-linearity subjected to an external periodic excitation is studied. The sequences (cascades) of harmonic and subharmonic stationary solutions to the equation of…

Nonlinear dynamics of a bouncing ball moving vertically in a gravitational field and colliding with a moving limiter is considered and the Poincare map, describing evolution from an impact to the next impact, is described. Displacement of…

The task of inducing, via continuous static state-feedback control, an asymptotically stable heteroclinic orbit in a nonlinear control system is considered in this paper. The main motivation comes from the problem of ensuring convergence to…

Many physical systems can be modelled as parameter-dependent variational problems. In numerous cases, multiple equilibria co-exist, requiring the evaluation of their stability, and the monitoring of transitions between them. Generally, the…

Transient bonds between fast linkers and slower particles are widespread in physical and biological systems. In spite of their diverse structure and function, a commonality is that the linkers diffuse on timescales much faster compared to…

Many practical approximations in physics and engineering invoke a relatively long physical domain with a relatively thin cross-section. In this scenario we typically expect the system to have structures that vary slowly in the long…
