Analysis of Stability and Bifurcations of Limit Cycles in Chua’s Circuit Through the Harmonic-Balance Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a spectral approach, based on the harmonic-balance technique, for detecting limit-cycle bifurcations in complex nonlinear circuits. The key step of the proposed approach is a method for a simple and effective computation of the Floquet multipliers (FM’s) that yield stability and bifurcation conditions. As a case-study, a quite complex system, Chua’s circuit, is considered. It is shown that the spectral approach is able to accurately evaluate the most significant bifurcation curves.

Hopf Bifurcations and Degeneracies in Chua’s Circuit a Perspective from a Frequency Domain Approach
In the present work explicit formulas for analyzing the birth of limit cycles arising in the Chua’s circuit through a Hopf bifurcation is provided. A local amplitude equation is derived using a frequency domain approach and harmonic balance approximations. Furthermore, the first Lyapunov index used to detect degenerate Hopf bifurcations is derived in terms of the parameters of the nonlinear cir...
متن کاملAnalysis and Control of Limit Cycle Bifurcations
The chapter addresses bifurcations of limit cycles for a general class of nonlinear control systems depending on parameters. A set of simple approximate analytical conditions characterizing all generic limit cycle bifurcations is determined via a first order harmonic balance analysis in a suitable frequency band. Moreover, due to the existing connection between limit cycle bifurcations and rout...

This paper further investigates on a basic issue that has received attention in the recent literature, namely, the robustness of complete stability of standard Cellular Neural Networks (CNNs) with respect to small perturbations of the nominal symmetric interconnections. More specifically, a class of third-order CNNs with a nominal symmetric interconnection matrix is considered, and the Harmonic...
متن کاملThree Steps to Chaos-Part 11: A Chua’s Circuit Primer
Linear system theory provides an inadequate characterization of sustained oscillation in nature. In this two-part exposition of oscillation in piecewise-linear dynamical systems, we guide the reader from linear concepts and simple harmonic motion to nonlinear concepts and chaos. By means of three worked examples, we bridge the gap from the familiar parallel RLC network to exotic nonlinear dynam...
