Bifurcations of Orbit and Inclination Flips Heteroclinic Loop with Nonhyperbolic Equilibria [PDF]
The bifurcations of heteroclinic loop with one nonhyperbolic equilibrium and one hyperbolic saddle are considered, where the nonhyperbolic equilibrium is supposed to undergo a transcritical bifurcation; moreover, the heteroclinic loop has an orbit flip ...

Invariant manifolds and orbit control in the solar sail three-body problem [PDF]
In this paper we consider issues regarding the control and orbit transfer of solar sails in the circular restricted Earth-Sun system. Fixed points for solar sails in this system have the linear dynamical properties of saddles crossed with centers; thus ...

Extension of the sun-synchronous Orbit [PDF]
Through careful consideration of the orbit perturbation force due to the oblate nature of the primary body a secular variation of the ascending node angle of a near-polar orbit can be induced without expulsion of propellant.

Dynamics of a plant-herbivore model with a chemically-mediated numerical response
A system of two ordinary differential equations is proposed to model chemically-mediated interactions between plants and herbivores by incorporating a toxin-modified numerical response.

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 ...

Bifurcation of Nongeneric Homoclinic Orbit Accompanied by Pitchfork Bifurcation
The bifurcation of a nongeneric homoclinic orbit (i.e., the orbit comes from the equilibrium along the unstable manifold instead of the center manifold) connecting a nonhyperbolic equilibrium is investigated, and the nonhyperbolic equilibrium undergoes ...
