Computation of Normal Forms via a Perturbation Technique
نویسنده
چکیده
Considering qualitative behavior of a non-linear dynamical system often leads to first simplifying the differential equations or finding their normal forms. A perturbation technique for computing normal forms is presented. This technique, associated with the method of multiple scales, can be used to systematically find a unique form for a given set of differential equations. The technique is discussed in detail through the analysis of Hopf bifurcation. It is shown that for Hopf bifurcation, the method only requires solving two dimensional matrix systems for any higher order normal forms of a general n-dimensional system. With the aid of the symbolic language Maple, this approach is straightforward, and is computationally efficient and fast. Furthermore, a simple verification scheme is given for verifying the normal forms and associated non-linear transformations obtained using any methodology. Examples are presented to demonstrate the applicability of the perturbation technique and the computation efficiency of the Maple program. 7 1998 Academic Press Limited

Computation of the normal forms for general M-DOF systems using multiple time scales. Part I: autonomous systems
This paper is concerned with the symbolic computation of the normal forms of general multiple-degreeof-freedom oscillating systems. A perturbation technique based on the method of multiple time scales, without the application of center manifold theory, is generalized to develop efficient algorithms for systematically computing normal forms up to any high order. The equivalence between the pertu...
متن کاملNormal forms of vector fields with perturbation parameters and their application
This paper is concerned with the normal forms of vector fields with perturbation parameters. Usually, such a normal form is obtained via two steps: first find the normal form of a ‘‘reduced’’ system of the original vector field without perturbation parameters, and then add an unfolding to the normal form. This way, however, it does not yield the relation (transformation) between the original sy...
