✦ Synopsis

This paper explores the effect of the deformability that certain systems undergo on their chaotic behavior, in the case where they are driven by both direct and parametric forces. The deformability of a system is accounted for by allowing its substrate potential to depend explicitly on a parameter that can varies continuously in a given range. The Remoissenet and Peyrard (RP) potential that we use additionally generates heteroclinic orbits, which enables an analytical approach of MelnikovÕs type to the problem. The system is also investigated numerically by constructing Poincar e e surfaces of sections and bifurcation diagrams and by computing Lyapunov exponents. It is found that the complexity of the modelÕs dynamics increases with the increase of the potential wellsÕ width. The analytical MelnikovÕs type result is inconclusive with respect to this effect of the shape of the potential, but agree well with numerical analysis for fixed value of the shape parameter.

The chaotic dynamics of a single-degree-of-freedom nonlinear mechanical system under periodic parametric excitation is investigated. Besides the well known type-I and type-III intermittent transitions to chaos we give numerical evidence that the system can follow an alternative route to chaos via in

In this work we expand our research on the global behavior of non-linear oscillators under external and parametric excitations. We consider a non-linear oscillator simultaneously excited by parametric and external functions. The oscillator has a bias parameter that breaks the symmetry of the motion.
