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 ...

Dynamical behaviour of a compound elastic pendulum
The aim of the paper is a comprehensive study of the compound elastic pendulum (CEP) with two degrees of freedom to point out the main complex (chaotic) dynamics that it can exhibit.

The trimaran vessel rolls strongly at low forward speed and may capsize in high sea conditions due to chaos and loss of stability, which is not usually considered in conventional limit-based criteria.

Complex dynamics of a sub-quadratic Lorenz-like system
Motivated by the generic dynamical property of most quadratic Lorenz-type systems that the unstable manifolds of the origin tending to the stable manifold of nontrivial symmetrical equilibria forms a pair of heteroclinic orbits, this technical note ...

Dissipation-Induced Heteroclinic Orbits in Tippe Tops [PDF]
This paper demonstrates that the conditions for the existence of a dissipation-induced heteroclinic orbit between the inverted and noninverted states of a tippe top are determined by a complex version of the equations for a simple harmonic oscillator: the modified Maxwell-Bloch equations.

Saddle-Node Heteroclinic Orbit and Exact Nontraveling Wave Solutions for (2+1)D KdV-Burgers Equation
We have undertaken the fact that the periodic solution of (2+1)D KdV-Burgers equation does not exist. The Saddle-node heteroclinic orbit has been obtained.

Bifurcation of heteroclinic orbits for diffeomorphisms [PDF]
Using the Lyapunov-Schmidt method in bifurcation theory [\textit{S. N. Chow} and \textit{J. K. Hale}, Methods of Bifurcation Theory (1982; Zbl 0487.47039)], the author investigates bifurcations of heteroclinic orbits of diffeomorphisms \(\Phi: \mathbb{R}^ 2\to \mathbb{R}^ 2\), \(\Phi(x,y)=(f(x),g(x,y))\), where \(g(x,0)\equiv0\), \(x\in(-1/2,3/2 ...

Homoclinic and Heteroclinic Orbits in Climbing Cucumber Tendrils. [PDF]
AbstractMany biomaterials utilize chiral growth to imitate biological functions. A prominent example can be found in growing cucumbers, which use tendrils as winding support for both fixation and climbing. A number of tendril-mimicking materials and artificial plant-like mechanical machines have been developed to imitate tendril deformation.

Periodic or homoclinic orbit bifurcated from a heteroclinic loop for high-dimensional systems
Consider an autonomous ordinary differential equation in Rn{{\mathbb{R}}}^{n}, which has a heteroclinic loop. Assume that the heteroclinic loop consists of two degenerate heteroclinic orbits γ1{\gamma }_{1}, γ2{\gamma }_{2} and two saddle points with ...
