Since the idea of synchronizing two identical chaotic systems under different initial conditions was first introduced by Pecora and Carroll, the synchronization of chaotic systems has attracted much attention, and the synchronization of non-identical chaotic systems has also been investigated. Single-Machine Infinite-Bus (SMIB) power system has nonlinear behaviour. On account of avoiding undesi...

We report microwave transmission measurements of superconducting Fabry-Perot resonators, having a superconducting nanowire placed at a supercurrent antinode. As the plasma oscillation is excited, the supercurrent is forced to flow through the nanowire. The microwave transmission of the resonator-nanowire device shows a nonlinear resonance behavior, significantly dependent on the amplitude of th...

A general energy-based theory of autoresonance (self-sustained resonance) in low-dimensional nonautonomous systems is presented. The equations that together govern the autoresonance solutions and excitations are derived with the aid of a variational principle concerning the power functional. These equations provide a feedback autoresonance-controlling mechanism. The theory is applied to Duffing...

We develop a convergent variational perturbation theory for the frequency of time-periodic solutions of nonlinear dynamical systems. The power of the theory is illustrated by applying it to the Duffing oscillator.

We study the periodic solutions of the following kind of non-autonomous Duffing differential equation ÿ+ay− εy = εh(t, y, ẏ), with a > 0, ε a small parameter and h a C2 function in its variables.

By using Mawhin–Manásevich continuation theorem, some new sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of periodic solutions of Duffing type p-Laplacian differential equation are established, which are complement of previously known results. © 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

In recent years, many authors are greatly attached to investigation for the existence and uniqueness of solution of Duffing equations, for example, 1–11 , and so forth. Some authors 8, 11, 12 , etc. proved the existence and uniqueness of solution of Duffing equations underC2 perturbation functions and other conditions at nonresonance by employingminimax theorems. In 1986, Tersian investigated t...

Based on a newly developed canonical dual transformation methodology, this paper presents a potentially useful duality theory and method for solving fully nonlinear distributed-parameter control problems. The extended Lagrange duality and the interesting triality theory proposed recently in finite deformation theory are generalized into nonconvex dissipative Hamiltonian systems. It is shown tha...
