Abstract

It is not easy to find periodic motions to chaos in a pendulum system even though the periodically forced pendulum is one of the simplest nonlinear systems. However, the inherent complex dynamics of the periodically forced pendulum is much beyond our imaginations through the traditional approach of linear dynamical systems. Until now, we did not know complex motions of pendulum yet. What are the mechanism and mathematics of such complex motions in the pendulum? The results presented herein give a new view of complex motions in the periodically forced pendulum. Thus, in this paper, periodic motions to chaos in a periodically forced pendulum are predicted analytically by a semi-analytical method. The method is based on discretization of differential equations of the dynamical system to obtain implicit maps. Using the implicit maps, mapping structures for specific periodic motions are developed, and the corresponding periodic motions can be predicted analytically through such mapping structures. Analytical bifurcation trees of periodic motions to chaos are obtained, and the corresponding stability and bifurcation analysis of periodic motions to chaos are carried out by eigenvalue analysis. From the analytical prediction of periodic motions to chaos, the corresponding frequency-amplitude characteristics are obtained for a better understanding of motions' complexity in the periodically forced pendulum. Finally, numerical simulations of selected periodic motions are illustrated. The nontravelable and travelable periodic motions on the bifurcation trees are discovered. Through this investigation, the periodic motions to chaos in the periodically forced pendulums can be understood further. Based on the perturbation method, one cannot achieve the adequate solutions presented herein for periodic motions to chaos in the periodically forced pendulum.

What bifurcations are observed in periodic motions of a driven pendulum?add

The study identifies multiple bifurcation types, including saddle-node and period-doubling, impacting periodic motion stability and transitions to chaos. Specifically, asymmetric period-1 motions exhibit bifurcations at excitation frequencies around 0.3112 and 0.3485.

How does the semi-analytical method contribute to understanding pendulum chaos?add

This method systematically derives implicit maps from discretizing differential equations, enabling detailed bifurcation analysis. Results include bifurcation trees illustrating chaotic transitions in periodically forced pendulums, such as period-doubling leading to chaos.

What unique features characterize travelable versus nontravelable periodic motions?add

Travelable motions do not possess a center, showing mod(x, 2π) periodicity without x0 = xmT, unlike nontravelable motions, which do have fixed points. This distinction influences their dynamical behavior and chaos emergence.

What findings clarify the motion complexity in periodically forced pendulums?add

The research reveals intricate oscillatory behavior, with the potential for chaos determined by parameters such as excitation amplitude and frequency. Numerical simulations corroborated predictions, enhancing understanding of complex dynamics in pendulated systems.

How does the frequency-amplitude characteristic curves enhance chaos prediction?add

These curves illustrate the dependence of harmonic amplitudes on excitation frequencies, revealing stability and transition points toward chaotic behavior. Notably, maximum amplitude levels were identified around 130.0 for initial periodic states.
