Abstract This paper investigates the dynamics of a Duffing oscillator excited by an unbalanced motor. The interaction between motor and vibrating system is considered as nonideal, which means that excitation provided can be influenced response, case in general for real systems. constitutes important difference with respect to classical (ideally excited) oscillator, where amplitude frequency ext...

This paper revisits the resonant behavior of a harmonically-forced Duffing oscillator with specific attention to phase resonance and its relation amplitude resonance. To this end, different families resonances, namely primary (1:1), superharmonic (k:1), subharmonic (1:ν) ultra-subharmonic (k:ν) resonances are carefully studied using first higher-order averaging. When lag is calculated between k...

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...

In this work, we propose a novel phenomenological model of the EEG signal based on the dynamics of a coupled Duffing-van der Pol oscillator network. An optimization scheme is adopted to match data generated from the model with clinically obtained EEG data from subjects under resting eyes-open (EO) and eyes-closed (EC) conditions. It is shown that a coupled system of two Duffing-van der Pol osci...

An oscillator whose frequency is amplitude dependent can be controlled by a drive whose frequency sweeps through a resonance with the oscillator's fundamental frequency. This phenomenon is called autoresonance, and has been previously investigated for drives with frequencies near the oscillator's fundamental or subharmonic frequencies. This paper examines autoresonance for drives at twice the f...

We study mechanical amplification and noise squeezing in a nonlinear nanomechanical resonator driven by an intense pump near its dynamical bifurcation point, namely, the onset of Duffing bistability. Phase sensitive amplification is achieved by a homodyne detection scheme, where the displacement detector's output, which has a correlated spectrum around the pump frequency, is down-converted by m...

We investigate the dynamic quantum tunneling between two attractors of a mesoscopic driven Duffing oscillator. We find that, in addition to inducing a remarkable quantum shift of the bifurcation point, the mesoscopic nature also results in a perfect linear scaling behavior for the tunneling rate with the driving distance to the shifted bifurcation point.

Dynamic stabilization of an unstable periodic orbit, a new interesting non-equilibrium phenomenon in driven nonlinear systems, has been experimentally observed in an electronic analog circuit of a driven double-well Duffing oscillator. We suggest that the dynamic stabilization is a generic property of driven nonlinear systems with humped potentials. q 2000 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
