On the implementation of the eigenvalue method for limit cycle determination in nonlinear systems
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract: In many practical systems, limit cycles can be predicted with suitable precision by frequency domain methods using describing functions. Within such an approach, limit cycles can be predicted using the “eigenvalue method” [7]. This contribution presents a novel and advantageous implementation of this method, using singular value instead of eigenvalue calculations, and enhancing computational efficiency by avoiding a so called “frequency iteration”.

Design and Implementation of a Control System for a DC Servomechanism with an Internal Dither Created by a Limit Cycle
Purpose of this paper is designing of a positional angle control system for a DC servomechanism. The servomechanism system consists of a direct current (DC) motor, a motor driver, a measuring sensor, and a control board to adjust angular position. The motor in the servomechanism has a non-linear element called dead-zone. Presence of dead-zone causes the nonlinear behavior of system. Injecting a...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Centre Manifold Method for Limit Cycle Calculations of a Nonlinear Structural Wing
In this study the centre manifold is applied for reduction and limit cycle calculation of a highly nonlinear structural aeroelastic wing. The limit cycle is arisen from structural nonlinearity due to the large deflection of the wing. Results obtained by different orders of centre manifolds are compared with those obtained by time marching method (fourth-order Runge-Kutta method). These comparis...

The Proposed method is a combinati...
متن کاملDetermination of Gain and Phase Margins in Lur’e Nonlinear Systems using Extended Circle Criterion
Nonlinearity is one of the main behaviors of systems in the real world. Therefore, it seems necessary to introduce a method to determine the stability margin of these systems. Although the gain and phase margins are established criteria for the analysis of linear systems, finding a specific way to determine the true value of these margins in nonlinear systems in general is an ongoing research i...

Finding a suitable estimation of stability domain around stable equilibrium points is an important issue in the study of nonlinear dynamical systems. This paper intends to apply a set of analytical-numerical methods to estimate the region of attraction for autonomous nonlinear systems. In mechanical and structural engineering, autonomous systems could be found in large deformation problems or c...
