First-guess generation of solar sail interplanetary heteroclinic connections [PDF]
This work deals with the generation of first-guess interplanetary trajectories connecting Libration Point Orbits (LPOs) belonging to different restricted three body problems. With the Sun always as first primary, the Earth, Mars and Mercury are assumed as second primary, and their relative models are coupled together with the view of defining ...

Reconfiguring smart structures using approximate heteroclinic connections [PDF]
A new method is investigated to reconfigure smart structures using the technique of polynomial series to approximate a true heteroclinic connection between unstable equilibria in a smart structure model. We explore the use of polynomials of varying order to first approximate the heteroclinic connection between two equal-energy, unstable equilibrium ...

Heteroclinic connections in singularly perturbed systems
We consider a singularly perturbed system with two normally hyperbolic centre manifolds. We derive one bifurcation function, the zeros of which correspond to heteroclinic connections near such a connection for the unperturbed system, and a second bifurcation function the zeros of which correspond to the vectors in the intersection of the tangent spaces

Reconfiguring Smart Structures Using Approximate Heteroclinic Connections in a Spring-Mass Model [PDF]
Several new methods are proposed to reconfigure smart structures with embedded computing, sensors and actuators. These methods are based on heteroclinic connections between equal-energy unstable equilibria in an idealised spring-mass smart structure ...

A general framework for invasion cycles in ecology. [PDF]
Abstract Theory predicts that indirect interactions in ecological networks sustain species diversity through oscillatory dynamics. However, a framework linking interaction structure to the presence, type, and complexity of these cycles is lacking. Here, we develop an analytical toolbox combining invasion graphs with a mathematical decomposition of ...

Heteroclinic connections in plane Couette flow [PDF]
Plane Couette flow transitions to turbulence at Re ≈ 325 even though the laminar solution with a linear profile is linearly stable for all Re (Reynolds number). One starting point for understanding this subcritical transition is the existence of invariant sets in the state space of the Navier–Stokes equation, such as upper and lower branch equilibria ...

Dynamical Inference of Simple Heteroclinic Networks
Heteroclinic networks are structures in phase space that consist of multiple saddle fixed points as nodes, connected by heteroclinic orbits as edges. They provide a promising candidate attractor to generate reproducible sequential series of metastable ...

Heteroclinic-structure transition of the pure quartic modulation instability
We show that, in the pure-quartic systems, modulation instability (MI) undergoes heteroclinic-structure transitions (HSTs) at two critical frequencies of {\omega} c1 and {\omega} c2 ( {\omega} c2 > {\omega} c1 ), which indicates that there are ...
