Adaptive synchronization of uncertain dynamical networks with delayed coupling

We propose a simple scheme for the synchronization of an uncertain complex dynamical network with delayed coupling. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory of functional differential equations, certain controllers can be designed for ensuring the states of uncertain dynamical network with coupling delays to globally asymptotically synchronize by combining the adaptive method and linear feedback with the updated feedback strength. Different update gains η _i will lead to different rates toward synchrony, the choice of which depends on the concrete systems and network models. This strategy can be applied to any complex dynamical network (regular, small-world, scale-free or random). Numerical examples with respectively nearest-neighbor coupling and scale-free structure are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of our presented scheme.     

Research on parametric resonance in a stochastic van der Pol oscillator under multiple time delayed feedback control

Analytical derivations and numerical calculations are employed to gain insight into the parametric resonance of a stochastically driven van der Pol oscillator with delayed feedback. This model is the prototype of a self-excited system operating with a combination of narrow-band noise excitation and two time delayed feedback control. A slow dynamical system describing the amplitude and phase of resonance, as well as the lowest-order approximate solution of this oscillator is firstly obtained by the technique of multiple scales. Then the explicit asymptotic formula for the largest Lyapunov exponent is derived. The influences of system parameters, such as magnitude of random excitation, tuning frequency, gains of feedback and time delays, on the almost-sure stability of the steady-state trivial solution are discussed under the direction of the signal of largest Lyanupov exponent. The non-trivial steady-state solution of mean square response of this system is studied by moment method. The results reveal the phenomenon of multiple solutions and time delays induced stabilization or unstabilization, moreover, an appropriate modulation between the two time delays in feedback control may be acted as a simple and efficient switch to adjust control performance from the viewpoint of vibration control. Finally, theoretical analysis turns to a validation through numerical calculations, and good agreements can be found between the numerical results and the analytical ones.     

Modeling,nonlinear dynamic analysis and control of fractional PMSG of wind turbine

This study aims to reveal the laws of the relationship between fractional-order system and integer-order system. Meanwhile, delayed feedback control is introduced to control the fractional-order PMSG (permanent magnet synchronous generator) model of a wind turbine. First, the fractional-order mathematical model of PMSG is established. Next, numerical simulations under different system orders are given and the system dynamic behaviors are analyzed in detail. Then, the delayed feedback control method is introduced to control the fractional-order PMSG and the control results when different parameters vary are analyzed. Complex dynamics are presented and some interesting phenomena are discovered. It is found that the system order influences the dynamics of the system in many aspects such as chaos pattern, bifurcation behavior, period window, shape and size of strange attractor. The delayed time, feedback gain, feedback limitation, system order can obviously influence the control result except the initial state of the system. Moreover, the feedback limitation has a minimum to successfully control the system to stable states and the system order also has a maximum to do so.     

Synchronization of a delayed complex dynamical network with free coupling matrix

This paper considers synchronization problem of a delayed complex dynamical network. For the problem, the virtual target node is chosen as one of nodes in the complex network. It should be pointed out that only one connection is needed between a real target node and a virtual target node instead of N connections. Moreover, the proposed synchronization scheme does not require additional conditions for coupling matrix unlike the existing works. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, a new design criterion for an adaptive feedback controller to achieving synchronization between the real target node and all nodes of the delayed complex network is developed. Finally, the proposed method is applied to a numerical example in order to show the effectiveness of our results.     

Time-delayed feedback control of dynamical small-world networks at Hopf bifurcation

We show that time-delayed feedback methods, which have successfully been used to control unstable steady states or periodic orbits, provide a tool to control Hopf bifurcation for a small-world network model with nonlinear interactions and time delays. We choose the interaction strength parameter as a bifurcation parameter. Without control, bifurcation will occur early; meanwhile, the model can maintain a stationary total influenced volume only in a certain domain of the interaction strength parameter. However, outside of this domain the model still possesses a stable total influenced volume that can be guaranteed by delayed feedback perturbation, and the onset of the Hopf bifurcation is postponed. The feedback perturbation vanishes if the stabilization is successful and thus the domain of stability can be extended under only small control force. We present an analytical investigation of the feedback scheme using characteristic equation and discuss effects of both a low-pass filter included in the control loop and nonzero latency times associated with generation and injection of the feedback signal.

     

Stability, bifurcation and chaos of a delayed oscillator with negative damping and delayed feedback control

This paper presents a detailed analysis on the dynamics of a delayed oscillator with negative damping and delayed feedback control. Firstly, a linear stability analysis for the trivial equilibrium is given. Then, the direction of Hopf bifurcation and stability of periodic solutions bifurcating from trivial equilibrium are determined by using the normal form theory and center manifold theorem. It shows that with properly chosen delay and gain in the delayed feedback path, this controlled delayed system may have stable equilibrium, or periodic solutions, or quasi-periodic solutions, or coexisting stable solutions. In addition, the controlled system may exhibit period-doubling bifurcation which eventually leads to chaos. Finally, some new interesting phenomena, such as the coexistence of periodic orbits and chaotic attractors, have been observed. The results indicate that delayed feedback control can make systems with state delay produce more complicated dynamics.     

Impact of node dynamics parameters on topology identification of complex dynamical networks

This paper aims at investigating the topology identification problem of complex dynamical networks with varying node dynamics parameters and fixed inner coupling matrices. In particular, by employing the unified chaotic system as node dynamics, this work further explores the influence of continuously changing node dynamics parameters on topology identification of complex dynamical networks with different coupling strengths. Results show that for sufficiently small or large coupling strengths, the performance of topology identification is not affected by the change of node parameters. Specifically, for small enough coupling strengths, the topological structure can be completely identified regardless of the change of node parameters, while for sufficiently large coupling strengths, the connectivity (presence and absence of connections) cannot be successfully identified. Furthermore, for certain coupling strengths, with the increase of node dynamics parameters, the topology identification varies from completely unidentifiable to partially or event completely identifiable. Therefore, the synchronization-based topology identification depends on node dynamics. Even for the same node dynamical model, different parameters can have a significant impact on identification results. Furthermore, for networks consisting of chaotic oscillators defining node dynamics, small coupling strengths are conducive to topology identification. A broader conclusion is that projective synchronization, rather than just complete synchronization, is an obstacle to the network topology identification. The findings in this paper will add to our understanding of conditions for identifying topologies of complex networks.

时滞反馈控制对弹簧摆动力学行为的影响

利用解析和数值方法,以弹簧摆为对象讨论了线性的时滞位移反馈控制对一类平方非线性系统动力学行为的影响。根据多尺度法得到了1:2内共振情况下一次近似解的慢变方程,基于此讨论了反馈控制参数对零解的稳定性和周期解振幅的影响。结果表明:耦合的反馈项在平均方程中并不出现。根据罗斯-霍尔维茨判据发现,没有反馈控制时该系统的零解总是不稳定的,而通过调整反馈增益或反馈时滞就可以很容易地使零解稳定。反馈时滞对周期解振幅的影响呈现周期性,反馈增益或时滞发生变化时,周期解振幅的变化会表现出鞍结分岔现象;同时基于MATLAB软件的数值计算结果验证了该理论分析的正确性。     

Pinning control of spatially and temporally complex dynamical networks with time-varying delays

In the present paper, two types of complex delayed dynamical networks with spatially and temporally varying state variables are proposed. The first is that all nodes in the network have the same time-varying delay. The second is that different nodes have different time-varying delays. We respectively investigate the stabilization problem of these two types of complex network models by pinning a small fraction of nodes with negative feedback controllers. With the help of Lyapunov functionals and some inequality techniques, several asymptotic stability and exponential stability conditions are established. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the results obtained here.     

Delayed feedback control based on the act-and-wait concept

This paper proposes a delayed feedback control (DFC) based on the act-and-wait concept, which reduces the dynamics of DFC systems to that of discrete-time systems. Based on this concept, a delayed feedback controller is designed for a prototype two-dimensional oscillator using a simple systematic procedure. This control has two advantages: the feedback delay time can be large and it can obtain deadbeat behavior. A numerical example using a double-scroll circuit model demonstrates these theoretical results.     

Non-resonant response, bifurcation and oscillation suppression of a non-autonomous system with delayed position feedback control

The maglev system with delayed position feedback control is excitated by the deflection of flexible guideway and resonant response may take place. This paper concerns the non-resonant response of the system by employing centre manifold reduction and method of multiple time scales. The dynamical model is presented and expanded to the third-order Taylor series. Taking time delay as its bifurcation parameter, the condition with which the Hopf bifurcation may occur is investigated. Centre manifold reduction is applied to get the Poincaré normal form of the nonlinear system so that we can study the relationship between periodic solution and system parameter. At first, the non-resonant periodic solution of the normal form is calculated based on the method of multiple time scales. Then the bifurcation condition of the free oscillation in the solution is analyzed, and we get the conditions with which the free oscillation has maximum and minimum values. The relationship between external excitation and the periodic solution is also discussed in this paper. Finally, numerical simulation results show how system and excitation parameters affect the system response. It is shown that the existence of the free oscillation and the amplitude of the forced oscillation can be determined by time delay and control parameters. So felicitously selecting them can suppress the oscillation effectively.     

Analyzing projective synchronization on different scaling factors in a drive-response coupling dynamical network with time-varying delays

In this paper, projective synchronization of drive-response coupled dynamical network with delayed system nodes and coupling time-varying delay is investigated via impulsive control, where the scaling factors are different from each other. Different controllers are designed to achieve the projective synchronization: only impulsive control is used when the scaling factors need extra limitation, while an extra controller, that is, a simple linear feedback controller, is added when the scaling factors don??t need extra limitation. Based on the stability analysis of the impulsive functional differential equation, the sufficient conditions for achieving projective synchronization of such coupled network are established, and an estimate of the upper bound of impulsive intervals ensuring global exponential synchronization of drive-response coupled dynamical network is also given. Numerical examples on the time-delay Lorenz chaotic systems are presented finally to illustrate the effectiveness and advantage of the proposed synchronization criteria.     

Effects of small world connection on the dynamics of a delayed ring network

This paper presents a detailed analysis on the dynamics of a ring network with small world connection. On the basis of Lyapunov stability approach, the asymptotic stability of the trivial equilibrium is first investigated and the delay-dependent criteria ensuring global stability are obtained. The existence of Hopf bifurcation and the stability of periodic solutions bifurcating from the trivial equilibrium are then analyzed. Further studies are paid to the effects of small world connection on the stability interval and the stability of periodic solution. In particular, some complex dynamical phenomena due to short-cut strength are observed numerically, such as: period-doubling bifurcation and torus breaking to chaos, the coexistence of multiple periodic solutions, multiple quasi-periodic solutions, and multiple chaotic attractors. The studies show that small world connection may be used as a simple but efficient “switch” to control the dynamics of a system.     

Synchronization analysis of directed complex networks with time-delayed dynamical nodes and impulsive effects

In this paper, the effect of impulses on the synchronization of a class of general delayed dynamical networks is analyzed. The network topology is assumed to be directed and weakly connected with a spanning tree. Two types of impulses occurred in the states of nodes are considered: (i) synchronizing impulses meaning that they can enhance the synchronization of dynamical networks; and (ii) desynchronizing impulses defined as the impulsive effects can suppress the synchronization of dynamical networks. For each type of impulses, some novel and less conservative globally exponential synchronization criteria are derived by using the concept of average impulsive interval and the comparison principle. It is shown that the derived criteria are closely related with impulse strengths, average impulsive interval, and topology structure of the networks. The obtained results not only can provide an effective impulsive control strategy to synchronize an arbitrary given delayed dynamical network even if the original network may be asynchronous itself but also indicate that under which impulsive perturbations globally exponential synchronization of the underlying delayed dynamical networks can be preserved. Numerical simulations are finally given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

A feedback linearization design for the control of vehicle’s lateral dynamics

In this paper, the feedback linearization scheme is applied to the control of vehicle’s lateral dynamics. Based on the assumption of constant driving speed, a second-order nonlinear lateral dynamical model is adopted for controller design. It was observed in (Liaw, D.C., Chung, W.-C. in 2006 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, 2006) that the saddle-node bifurcation would appear in vehicle dynamics with respect to the variation of the front wheel steering angle, which might result in spin and/or system instability. The vehicle dynamics at the saddle node bifurcation point is derived and then decomposed as an affine nominal model plus the remaining term of the overall system dynamics. Feedback linearization scheme is employed to construct the stabilizing control laws for the nominal model. The stability of the overall vehicle dynamics at the saddle-node bifurcation is then guaranteed by applying Lyapunov stability criteria. Since the remaining term of the vehicle dynamics contains the steering control input, which might change system equilibrium except the designed one. Parametric analysis of system equilibrium for an example vehicle model is also obtained to classify the regime of control gains for potential behavior of vehicle’s dynamical behavior.     

Principal resonance of a Duffing oscillator with delayed state feedback under narrow-band random parametric excitation

The principal resonance of a Duffing oscillator with delayed state feedback under narrow-band random parametric excitation is studied by using the method of multiple scales and numerical simulations. The first-order approximations of the solution, together with the modulation equations of both amplitude and phase, are derived. The effects of the frequency detuning, the deterministic amplitude, the intensity of the random excitation and the time delay on the dynamical behaviors, such as stability and bifurcation, are studied through the largest Lyapunov exponent. Moreover, the appropriate choice of the feedback gains and the time delay is discussed from the viewpoint of vibration control. It is found that the appropriate choice of the time delay can broaden the stable region of the trivial steady-state solution and enhance the control performance. The theoretical results are well verified through numerical simulations.
