Comprehensive study of phase transitions in relaxational systems with field-dependent coefficients

open access: yes, 2003
We present a comprehensive study of phase transitions in single-field systems that relax to a non-equilibrium global steady state. The mechanism we focus on is not the so-called Stratonovich drift combined with collective effects, but is instead similar ...

Recent advances in multifunctional soft robots: A materials–structures–systems co‐design perspective for synergistic integration

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Abstract Soft robots, engineered from highly compliant materials, offer superior adaptability and safety in unstructured environments compared to their rigid counterparts. Recent advancements, fueled by bio‐inspiration and material programmability, have led to the rapid co‐evolution of their core modules: actuation, sensing, protection, energy, and ...

From synchronization to multistability in two coupled quadratic maps

open access: yes, 2000
The phenomenology of a system of two coupled quadratic maps is studied both analytically and numerically. Conditions for synchronization are given and the bifurcations of periodic orbits from this regime are identified.

‘Pre‐Technologies’ and the Lifeworld: Assistive Technologies as ‘Pre‐Technologies’ for Self‐Formation as Freedom

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article identifies assistive technologies (ATs) as ‘pre‐technologies’ mediating access to other technologies for disabled subjects (DSs). The motivation is to show that without ATs, DSs cannot be said to have the same level of access to freedom and self‐forming activities as able‐bodied subjects.

Hidden attractors in fundamental problems and engineering models

open access: yes, 2015
Recently a concept of self-excited and hidden attractors was suggested: an attractor is called a self-excited attractor if its basin of attraction overlaps with neighborhood of an equilibrium, otherwise it is called a hidden attractor.

A Two-Memristor-based Chaotic System with Symmetric Bifurcation and Multistability

open access: yesChaos and Fractals
In this work, the study of an innovative chaotic system made from two memristors with symmetric bifurcation and multistability is presented. Within a four dimensional chaotic framework, the system is architected with two flux controlled memristors ...

Multistability and Phase Synchronization of Rulkov Neurons Coupled with a Locally Active Discrete Memristor

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2023
In order to enrich the dynamic behaviors of discrete neuron models and more effectively mimic biological neural networks, this paper proposes a bistable locally active discrete memristor (LADM) model to mimic synapses.

Interaction Between Vortex‐Induced Vibrations and Base Vibrations in Piezoelectric Harvesters

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the present era, powering sensors using green energy is a significant challenge. One promising solution for the power supply of small sensors relies on piezoelectric energy harvesters excited by vortex‐induced vibrations (VIVs) generated by wind.
