Nonlinear oscillations of a coupled autoparametrical system with ideal and nonideal sources of power

Abstract

An ideal and nonideal autoparametrical system excited by DC motor with unbalanced mass is presented in this work. The system consists of the body of massMwhich is hung on a nonlinear spring with a nonlinear damper, and a pendulum of the lengthland massmmounted to the body of massM. It is assumed that the motion of the pendulum is damped by nonlinear resistive forces. Vibrations of both models (ideal and nonideal) are researched. Solutions for the system response are presented for specific values of the parameters of system and the energy transfer between modes of vibrations is studied. Next excited vibrations for both models have been examined analytically and numerically. Except different kinds of periodic vibrations, there may also appear chaotic vibrations.
