Continuous and discontinuous grazing bifurcations in impacting oscillators

Continuous and discontinuous grazing bifurcations in impacting oscillators

Abstract

Grazing bifurcations occur in nonsmooth dynamical systems when the behavior of the system changes discontinuously associated with a grazing contact. By a grazing contact, the interaction of an attractor with a discontinuity of the system is meant. In mechanics, such events represent transitions between non-impacting and impacting dynamics. In this paper, conditions are found for the persistence of a local attractor in the vicinity of a grazing trajectory. While previous papers dealt with periodic grazing trajectories, the authors consider quasiperiodic trajectories. In analogy to the periodic case, the catastrophic loss of a local attractor is associated with the repeated application of a square-root term that appears to lowest order in the normal-form expansion. The main tool employed in this paper is the discontinuity-mapping approach, where a Poincaré mapping for the nonsmooth system is obtained as a composition of a smooth Poincaré mapping and a discontinuity mapping. The results of the paper are illustrated by several model examples.
