The bifurcation problem of thin walled structures in contact with rigid surfaces is formulated by adopting the multiple scales asymptotic technique. The general theory developed in this paper is very useful for the bifurcation analysis of waviness instabilities in the sheet metal forming. The formulation is presented in a full Lagrangian formulation. Through this general formulation, the bifurcation functional is derived within an error of O($(E^4)$) (E: shell's thickness parameter). This functional can be used in numerical solutions to sheet metal forming instability problem.

In this paper, we take into account a parasite-host system with reaction-diffusion. Firstly, we derive conditions for Hopf, Turing, and wave bifurcations of the system in the spatial domain by means of linear stability and bifurcation analysis. Secondly, we display numerical simulations in order to investigate Turing pattern formation. In fact, the numerical simulation discloses that typical Turing patterns, such as spotted, spot-stripelike mixtures and stripelike patterns, can be formed. In this study, we show that typical Turing patterns, which are well known in predator-prey systems ([7, 18, 25]), can be observed in a parasite-host system as well.

This study proposes a modified bifurcation model with a computational fluid analysis according to variation of a bifurcation geometry. FLUENT is used for a calculation of the head losses in case of a generation and a pumping. The pressure, velocity field and turbulent intensity are simulated in a bifurcation. With consideration about these flow properties, we propose the modified model to improve a flow efficiency and reduce a sound. The proposed model is able to cut down a head loss by 45% when a generation and 36% when a pumping.

We study bifurcation for the following fractional Schrödinger equation $$\{\left.\begin{eqnarray}(-{\Delta})^su+V(x)u&=&{\lambda}f(u)&&{\text{in}}\;{\Omega}\\u&>&0&&{\text{in}}\;{\Omega}\\u&=&0&&{\hspace{32}}{\text{in}}\;{\mathbb{R}}^n{\backslash}{\Omega}\end{eqnarray}\right$$ where 0 < s < 1, n > 2s, Ω is a bounded smooth domain of ℝⁿ, (-∆)^s is the fractional Laplacian of order s, V is the potential energy satisfying suitable assumptions and λ is a positive real parameter. The nonlinear term f is a positive nondecreasing convex function, asymptotically linear that is $\lim_{t{\rightarrow}+{\infty}}\;{\frac{f(t)}{t}}=a{\in}(0,+{\infty})$. We discuss the existence, uniqueness and stability of a positive solution and we also prove the existence of critical value and the uniqueness of extremal solutions. We take into account the types of Bifurcation problem for a class of quasilinear fractional Schrödinger equations, we also establish the asymptotic behavior of the solution around the bifurcation point.

This paper deals with the bifurcations of non-semi-simple eigenvalues at critical point of Hopf bifurcation to understand the dynamic behavior of the system. By using the Puiseux expansion, the expression of the bifurcation of non-semi-simple eigenvalues and the corresponding topological structure in the parameter space are obtained. The zero-order approximate solutions in the vicinity of the critical points at which the multiple Hopf bifurcation may occur are developed. A numerical example, the flutter problem of an airfoil in simplified model, is given to illustrate the application of the proposed method.

In this paper we study a four dimensional tourism-based social-ecological dynamical system. In fact we analyse tourism profitability, compatibility and sustainability by using bifurcation theory in terms of structural properties of attractors of system. For this purpose first we transformed it into a three dimensional system such that the reduced system is the extended and modified model of the previous three dimensional models suggested for tourism with the same dimension. Then we investigate transcritical, pitchfork and saddle-node bifurcation points of system. And numerically by finding some branches of stable equilibria for system show the profitability of tourism industry. Then by determining the Hopf bifurcation points of system we find a family of stable attractors for that by numerical techniques. Finally we conclude the existence of these stable limit cycles implies profitability and compatibility and then the sustainability of tourism.

In this paper, author describe the simulation results concerning the period doubling bifurcation route to chaos of DC/DC boost converter under current mode control to show that it is common phenomena on switching regulator when parameters are improperly chosen or continuously varied beyond the ensured region by system designer. Bifurcation diagrams of periodic orbits of inductor current and capacitor voltage of DC/DC boost converter are plotted with sampled data at moment of each clock pulse causing switching on. DC/DC boost converter studied on this paper is modelled by its state space equations as per switching condition under continuous conduction mode. Current reference signal and capacitance are chosen as the bifurcation parameters and those are varied in step for iterative calculation to find bifurcation points of periodic orbits of state variables.

Bifurcation analysis of cell cycle regulation in the budding yeast is performed basedon the mathematical model by Chen et al [Molecular biology of cell, 11:369-391, 2000]. On the bifurcation diagram, locations of both stable and unstable solutions of the nonlinear differential equations are presented by taking the mass of cell as a controlparameter. Based on the bifurcation diagram, dynamic mechanism underlying the 'start' transition, initiation of a new round of cell cycle, and the 'finish' transition, completion of cell cycle and returning back to the initial state, is discussed: the 'start' transition is a transition from a stable fixed solution for a small mass and to an oscillatory state for a large mass, and the 'finish' transition is a switching back to the stable fixed solution from the oscillatory state. To understand the role of the genes during the cell cycle regulation, bifurcation diagrams for the mutants are compared with that of the wild type.

Characteristics of solutions of softening plasticity are discussed in this article. The localized and non-localized solutions are obtained for a three-bar truss and their stability is evaluated with the aid of the second-order work. Beyond the bifurcation point, the single stable loading path splits into several post-bifurcation paths and the second-order work exhibits several competing minima. Among the multiple post-bifurcation equilibrium states, the localized solutions correspond to the minimum points of the second-order work, while the non-localized solutions correspond to the saddles and local maximum points. To determine the real post-bifurcation path, it is proposed that the structure should follow the path corresponding to the absolute minimum point of the second-order work. The proposal is further proved equivalent to Bazant's path criterion derived on a thermodynamics basis.

It is known that the parametric boundary equation for the main component in the Mandelbrot set represents a cardioid. We derive an epicy-cloidal boundary equation of the main component in the degree-n bifurcation set by extending the parameter which describes the cardioid in the Mandelbrot set. Computational results as well as some useful properties are presented together with the programming source codes written in Mathematica. Various boundaries are displayed for $2\leqn\leq7$7 and show a good agreement with the theory presented here. The known boundary equation enables us to significantly reduce the construction time for the degree-n bifurcation set.
