1 ENGI Duffing s Equation Page Duffing s Equation Among the simplest models of damped non-linear forced oscillations of a mechanical or electrical system with a cubic stiffness term is Duffing s equation: d x dx 3 + a + bx + cx = d cosωt () In section 4.0, we considered the simple undamped pendulum: d x g + sin x = 0 () L When x is very small, sin x x and () reduces to the ODE for simple harmonic motion. 3 x The next order approximation is sin x x, so that () becomes 6 3 d x g g x + x = 0 (3) L L 6 dx If we add a damping term a and a forcing function d cos ωt, then (3) becomes Duffing s equation ().

2 ENGI Duffing s Equation Page 4.66 Special Case : Conduct a stability analysis for the undamped unforced Duffing s equation d x 3 + ω x + cx = 0 (4) The equivalent first order system is dx dy = y = ω x cx 3 (5) Critical points: ( y = 0) and x= 0 or x = c Near (0, 0) the linear approximation is x 0 x = y ω 0 y The characteristic equation is det(a - λi) = 0 λ + ω = 0 The eigenvalues are a pure imaginary pair (0, 0) is a centre. It is stable but not asymptotically stable. If c > 0, then this is the only critical point of (4). (6) If c < 0, then there are two other critical points, at ±,0. c

They are unstable. c (7)

4 ENGI Duffing s Equation Page 4.68 Exact Solution of Special Case : The system (5), dx = y dy 3 = ω x cx 3 dy dy dx ω x c x = = dx y 4 3 y A ω x cx ydy = ( ω x cx ) dx = 4 4 cx Therefore the orbits in the phase space (x, y) are y = A ω x, where A is an arbitrary constant. If c > 0, then all orbits are closed, about the centre at (0, 0).

5 ENGI Duffing s Equation Page 4.69 Special Case : (continued) If c < 0, then those orbits far enough away from the centre are open, due to the influence of the saddle points at ±,0. c The part of the phase space between the two saddle points resembles that for the undamped pendulum on page 4.07: The orbits passing through the saddle points separates closed orbits from open orbits and is called the separatrix. The positive y axis intercept of each orbit is just the value of A for that orbit. The separatrix has x axis intercepts at the saddle points. Therefore, for the separatrix, cx c ω A = ω x + = ω + c x / c = c c =± ω The equation of the separatrix is 4 4 ω cx y = ω x +, ( c < 0) c

6 ENGI Duffing s Equation Page 4.70 Special Case : Conduct a stability analysis for the damped unforced Duffing s equation d x dx 3 + a + ω x + cx = 0 (8) The equivalent first order system is dx dy = y 3 = ω x cx ay (9) The critical points are the same as in special case : ( y = 0) and x= 0 or x = c Near (0, 0) the linear approximation is x 0 x = y ω a y The characteristic equation is det(a - λi) = 0 λ + aλ + ω = 0 a ± a 4ω λ = The critical point is stable if a > 0 and unstable if a < 0. It is a focus if a 4ω < 0 and a node otherwise. (0) If c > 0, then this is the only critical point of (8). If c < 0, then there are two other critical points, at ±,0. c

7 ENGI Duffing s Equation Page 4.7 Special Case : (continued) Near ±,0 c dx P P = ( y) x y near ( ± ω/ c, 0) near ( / c, 0) x + ± ω ( / c, 0) c y ± ω ( ± ω/ c, 0) = ( 0) x + () y = y c dy 3 Q Q = ( ω x cx ay) x y near ( ) ( ± ω/ c, 0) near / c, 0 x + ± ω ( / c, 0) c y ± ω ( ± ω/ c, 0) = ω 3c x + ( a) y = ω x ay c c c The linear approximation to (9) near ±,0 is c x 0 x c = y ω a y The characteristic equation is det(a - λi) = 0 λ + aλ ω = 0 a ± a + 8ω λ = The eigenvalues are a distinct real pair with opposite sign ±,0 are saddle points. They are unstable. c () The presence of the damping term changes the centre into a stable focus (for physically reasonable values of a, ω and c, or, for particularly strong damping, a stable node). The form of the separatrix is more complicated, as trajectories leaving either saddle point in the direction of the origin are swept by the damping term into the focus (or node) instead of moving around the centre to the other saddle point. There are no closed orbits; just orbits that terminate at the origin or a saddle point and orbits that retreat to infinity.

Examine the stability of the linear second order differential equation d x dx + + ( 4π + ) x = ( 3π + ) cosπt πsinπ t The complete solution for the initial conditions x( 0) =, y( 0) = x ( 0) = π. can be obtained by building upon the solution to Example 4.. and is ( ) t t ( x() t, y () t ) = cosπt + e sin πt, πsinπt + e ( π cos πt sin πt) In this case, the steady state solution (after the transient terms have vanished) is lim x t, y t = cos πt, π sinπt t ( ( ) ( )) ( ) so that the orbit in the phase space approaches the ellipse π x + y = π This ellipse must therefore be the limit cycle for the system. A plot of the orbit in the phase space is shown here. Note how the solution curve in the phase space can wander inside and outside the limit cycle more than once, before finally settling down to its asymptotic approach as the transient terms become negligible.

12 ENGI More Examples Page 4.76 Example 4.. (continued) Different sets of initial conditions can generate orbits that look very different at first, before they settle down into their steady-state configuration near the limit cycle.

13 ENGI Liénard s Theorem Page Liénard s Theorem If f (x) is an even function for all x and g(x) is an odd function for all x and g(x) > 0 for all x > 0 and F( x) ( ) then the system x = f t is such that F (x) = 0 has exactly one positive root, γ, and 0 F (x) < 0 for 0 < x < γ and F (x) > 0 and non-decreasing for x > γ, or, equivalently, ( ) ( ) x = y, y = f x y g x d x dx + f ( x) + g( x) = 0 has a unique limit cycle enclosing the origin and that limit cycle is asymptotically stable. When all of the conditions of Liénard s theorem are satisfied, the system has exactly one periodic solution, towards which all other trajectories spiral as t. Example 4.3. Let f (x) = μ ( x ) and g(x) = x, (with μ > 0), then Liénard s ODE becomes d x dx μ ( x ) + x = 0 which is Van der Pol s equation (section 4.08). Checking the conditions of Liénard s theorem: f (x) = μ ( x ) is an even function. g(x) = x is an odd function, positive for all x > 0. x x 3 3 t x x F( x) = μ( t ) = μ t = + μ x = μx F (x) = 0 has only one positive root, γ = 3. F (x) < 0 for 0 < x < 3 and F (x) > 0 and increasing for x > 3. 0 Therefore Van der Pol s equation possesses a unique and asymptotically stable limit cycle.

The function z = f (x, y) defines a surface in 3. At any point (x, y) in the x-y plane, the direction in which one must travel in order to experience the greatest possible rate of increase in z at that point is the direction of the gradient vector, f ˆ f f i ˆj x y The magnitude of the gradient vector is that greatest possible rate of increase in z at that point. The gradient vector is not constant everywhere, unless the surface is a plane. (The symbol is usually pronounced del ). The concept of the gradient vector can be extended to functions of any number of variables. If u = f (x, y, z, t), then f f f f f x y z t. If v is a function of position r and time t, while position is in turn a function of time, then by the chain rule of differentiation, d v v dx v dy v dz v dr v v x y z t t d v v v v t which is of use in the study of fluid dynamics.

In orthogonal non-cartesian coordinate systems, the expressions for the gradient operator are not as simple.

19 ENGI Gradient Summary Page 5.06 Example A potential function V r is spherically symmetric, (that is, its value depends only on the distance r from the origin), due solely to a point source at the origin. There are no other sources or sinks anywhere in V r. 3. Deduce the functional form of V r is spherically symmetric V r,, f r In any regions not containing any sources of the vector field, the divergence of the vector field F V (and therefore the Laplacian of the associated potential function V) must be zero.
