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. & 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Keywords: Parametric resonance Multiple time delayed feedback Random noise

1. Introduction As well known actual systems are inevitably fluctuated by various uncertain factors usually modeled by some kind of stochastic noise. On the other hand, time delay is an intrinsic feature of many mechanical, neural and natural systems [1–5] commonly in consequence of finite propagation speeds of signals, finite processing times in synapses, and so on. Thus, investigation on the interaction influences of random noise excitation and time delayed feedback on non-linear systems is a practical and interesting topic. Up to now, notable attentions among such problems focused on the study of system dynamics in time delay controlled dynamical systems without stochastic forcing, which has fascinated a great deal of researchers in various fields. For instance, Maccari [6,7] examined the resonance response of a parametrically or externally forced van der Pol oscillator with delayed state feedback. Using an asymptotic perturbation method, he pointed out that proper choices of feedback gains and time delay are possible to exclude quasi-periodic motion and reduce the response amplitude. By means of the center manifold technique

and averaging theorem, Xu and Chung [8] described the effect of linear and non-linear time delayed position feedbacks on a Duffing–van der Pol oscillator. The system considered in [8] demonstrated rich dynamical behaviors under time delayed feedbacks, including phase shifting solution, chaos, period doubling and quasi-periodic motion. Through stability analysis and normal forms, Ji and Hansen [9] considered the effect of time delay on the stability of trivial equilibrium. The result indicated that the trivial equilibrium of the controlled system may lose its stability via a subcritical or supercritical Hopf bifurcation and regain its stability via a reverse subcritical or supercritical Hopf bifurcation as the time delay increases. Using the averaging method, Morrison and Rand [10] reported the dynamics of the time delayed Mathieu system in the neighborhood of 2:1 resonance. Mori and Kokame [11] obtained the delay-independent stability criterion in a system with single time delay, then Hu and Wang [12] proposed a practical delay-independent stability criterion for linear damped single degree of freedom system with two time delays. Comparing with the above abundant results provided by deterministic non-linear systems with time delayed feedback, to the author’s most knowledge, little literature [13,14] is available for time delayed non-linear systems subject to stochastic forcing.

Duffing oscillator under a time delay feedback is studied by means of qualitative analysis. In order to reveal potential dynamics in stochastic non-linear systems with time delayed feedback, especially in the case of multiple time delayed feedback, the present work attempts to explore the non-linear dynamics of a self-excited oscillator in the neighborhood of parametric resonance under a combination of two time delayed feedback control and narrow-band noise excitation. As the first study, a stochastic parametrically excited van der Pol system under two time delayed linear feedback control is introduced. The oscillator of van der Pol originally arose as model in electric circuit theory. Now, many applications consisting of vehicle dynamics, oil-film journal bearings, flutter of plates and shells are all related with this system. The motion of the van der Pol oscillator is dominated by the following equation 2 0 u

The technique of multiple scales has been well-established by Hayfeh [16] and the references cited therein. Moreover, it has been extended to deal with the dynamics in non-linear systems with time delay (s) [13,14,17]. By the extended technique, the approximate asymptotic solution of system (1) is firstly derived in this section. A two scales expansion of the solution is sought in the form of ð2Þ

in which Ti ¼ ei t,i ¼ 0,1 are different time scales. The slow scale T0 characterizes the modulation in the amplitude and phase caused by the non-linearity and damping. The fast scale T1 is associated with the relatively fast changes in the response. Denoting Dn ¼ @=@Tn , the first and second derivatives with respect to t are given by d2 ¼ D20 þ 2eD0 D1 þOðe2 Þ dt 2

Clearly, the stability of the trivial response is definitely dependent on the sign of the largest Lyapunov exponent l, namely the trivial solution is almost-sure asymptotic stable if and only if l o 0. Several cases of the variations of l versus noise amplitude, tuning frequency, feedback gains and time delays are described to reveal how these key parameters influence the stability of trivial solution. In the case of o0 ¼ 1:0, a ¼ 0:1, e ¼ 0:1, g ¼ 0:1 (these four parameters are fixed in this section), B ¼ 0:5, C ¼ 0:3, t1 ¼ 4:0, t2 ¼ 1:0, the dependences of the largest Lyapunov exponent l on noise amplitude F and tuning frequency s are illustrated in Fig. 1. The three-dimensional plots of l over the parameter ranges 6 r s r6 and 0 rF r 6 are depicted in Fig. 1(a), through which one can find that there are two different solution ranges for the largest Lyapunov exponent. Near s ¼0, i.e., the parameter resonance at excitation frequency O ¼2o0, the largest Lyapunov exponent increases and reaches its maximum value at the center of the instability region. Out of this mountain, there is a plane in which the largest Lyapunov exponent maintains a certain negative value. To give a vivid description of the largest Lyapunov exponent imposed by tuning frequency, the evolution of l with s are portrayed in Fig. 1(b), which says as the tuning frequency increases, the sign of largest Lyapunov exponent is firstly negative, then positive, and once again negative, then system (1) is correspondingly stable, unstable and stable in succession. Fig. 1 may imply that, when system (1) is far away parameter resonance, the stability of trivial solution is more robust against the disturbance of noise excitation than that when system (1) is near parameter resonance. Moreover, the nearer system (1) approaches parameter resonance, the more unstable the system is.

In addition, the noise excitation of large amplitude easily brings stability in resonance region, which is consistent with physical intuition. The influences of feedback gains on the largest Lyapunov exponent are demonstrated in Fig. 2 when t1 ¼ 4:0, t2 ¼ 1:0, s ¼0.2, F¼ 1.4. Fig. 2(a) displays the three-dimensional plots of g over the parameter ranges 3 rB r 3 and 3 r C r 3, from which we can see clearly that l decreases from positive to negative on the whole as both the displacement feedback gain and velocity feedback gain increases. This is further confirmed by the (l,C) curves depicted in Fig. 2(b). Fig. 2 may indicate that large feedback gains enable us easily to stabilize the trivial solution of system (1). When the parameters are fixed as s ¼0.2, F¼1.4, B ¼0.5, C¼ 0.3, Fig. 3(a) depicts the three-dimensional figures of l versus the modulation of two time delays, together with Fig. 3(b) showing the stability boundary of trivial response in t1 2t2 plane. Obviously, the three-dimensional figure presents a variety of l over the parameter ranges 0 r t1 r 6 and 0 r t2 r 6. The t1 2t2 plane is divided into three parts by equating l to zero: region I corresponding to l 4 0 (which consists of two separate parts in the parameter plane) and region II corresponding to l o0. That is to say, if the two time delays fall into region II, trivial solution of system (1) is asymptotically stable, otherwise, the trivial solution is unstable. This may imply proper choices of time delays shall provide a better vibration control.

3.2. The case of non-trivial steady-state solution When g is sufficiently small, the classical perturbation method and the stochastic moment technique [20] are utilized to analyze further the non-trivial steady-state solution of system (1). For

According to the Routh–Hurwitz criterion [20], the steadystate solution of Eq. (13) is asymptotically stable if the following two inequalities hold simultaneously 8 2 < aa0 4 0 a ð16Þ : E3 þ a20 4 0 4 For typical cases, existence regions and stability analysis for the non-trivial steady-state solution are illustrated in (F, s) plane for the uncontrolled system (Fig. 4(a)) and the controlled system (Fig. 4(b)). In Fig. 4, Region I stands for a region where there is no non-trivial steady-state response for system (1), while region II represents a region in which there is an asymptotical stable nontrivial steady-state solution. In the remanent region, there are two non-trivial steady-state solutions with the large solution stable and the small one unstable. Drawing a comparison between these two figures, the region for two non-trivial steady-state solutions is distinctly enlarged when the time delayed feedback control is present in system (1). Setting @a0 =@t1 ¼ 0,@a0 =@t2 ¼ 0 in Eq. (14), one can readily find the time delays ðt 1 , t 2 Þ for the possible maximum or minimum amplitude of the steady-state response. These two time delays, viz. ðt 1 , t 2 Þ, correspond to a maximum value of the response if the second partial derivatives satisfy @2 a0 @2 a0 @ 2 a0  40 2 2 @t1 @t2 @t1 @t2

Fig. 5 exhibits the dependences of the amplitude a0 of the steadystate response on tuning frequency s for the uncontrolled system (the line of A1), a controlled system with no time delay (the line of A2), a controlled system with a certain time delays (the line of A3) and a controlled system with different time delays corresponding to the maximum amplitude for the response (the line of A4). The dashed lines symbolize unstable motion while the solid lines stable motion. Numerical integral of the original system for the maximum response is performed and the results are depicted by asterisks ‘‘ ’’ in Fig. 5. Obviously, numerical results agree well with theoretical ones. Moreover, Fig. 5 reveals that an appropriate modulation between the two time delays in feedback control not only can reduce the response amplitude but also can enlarge the response amplitude. Then time delays appear to be acted as dual roles from the view point of vibration control. In the following part, the steady-state response of system (1) is discussed in a mean square sense when g a0 but is sufficiently small. Let

In this section, numerical simulations are performed by numerically integrating the time delayed van der Pol oscillator (1) using 4th Runge–Kutta algorithm. For the simulations of narrowband noise, readers can refer to Shinozuka [21] and Zhu [22]. Firstly, simulations of the stochastic response for the controlled system (1) are employed to verify the analytical results derived from the largest Lyapunov exponent. Fig. 1(b) shows when freezing noise amplitude the largest Lyapunov exponent is firstly negative, then positive, and once again negative as tuning frequency increases. For instance, when F¼1.4 l is less than zero for s ¼  0.8 and s ¼0.8, while it is more than zero for s ¼  0.0. The change of the largest Lyapunov exponent from minus to plus definitely denotes a switching of the stability, i.e. from stable to unstable, of the trivial response caused only by the frequency. Figs. 6(a) and (c) depict the time histories of system (1) in the case of s ¼  0.8 and s ¼0.8, respectively, showing the controlled van der Pol oscillator is stabilized asymptotically to the stable trivial solution after a short transition, namely the trivial solution of system (1) is asymptotically stable. While the time history of controlled van der Pol oscillator in the case of s ¼  0.0, displayed in Fig. 6(b), is oscillatory regularly, namely the trivial solution of system (1) is not stable. Fig. 3(b) indicates that modulation of the two time delays in displacement feedback and velocity feedback can adjust the stability property of the trivial solution. When the two time delays ðt1 , t2 Þ fall into the stable region, for example t1 ¼ 4, t2 ¼ 0:2 and t1 ¼ 4, t2 ¼ 5, the stochastic response of system (1) undergoes a transition stage and then asymptotically converges to the stable trivial solution, which are displayed in Figs. 7(a) and (c),

respectively. In the case of t1 ¼ 4 and t2 ¼ 3, the two time delays ðt1 , t2 Þ situate in the unstable region of Fig. 3(b), the corresponding oscillatory response is demonstrated in Fig. 7(b). Obviously, numerical calculations for the stability of the trivial solution are consistent with theoretical analysis. Without loss of generality, when the parameters of system (1) are selected as o0 ¼ 1:0, a ¼ 0:1, B ¼ 0:5, C ¼ 0:3, e ¼ 0:1, g ¼ 0:01, s ¼ 0:1, F ¼ 1:0, t1 ¼ 4, t2 ¼ 1, Fig. 8 depicts the variations of steady-state response of the controlled van der Pol oscillator (1). The deterministic steady-state amplitude a0 as a function of noise strength F is showed in Fig. 8(a), and the mean square response Ea2 versus tuning frequency is displayed in Fig. 8(b). The solid lines stand for approximate analytical results obtained in Section 3.2, and the asterisks represent numerical results. The well coincidence of the analytical results and numerical ones readily confirms that the present analysis is effective. Secondly, further numerical calculations are employed to reveal how the bandwidth of narrow-band noise influences the stochastic response of system (1). In the case of o0 ¼ 1:0, a ¼ 0:1, B ¼ 0:5, C ¼ 0:3, e ¼ 0:1, s ¼ 0:1, F ¼ 1:5, t1 ¼ 0:5, t2 ¼ 2:5, the results of time history, phase portrait as well as power spectrum are illustrated in Fig. 9 for different bandwidth of stochastic noise. When g ¼ 0, i.e., the narrow-band noise is degenerated into a deterministic harmonic excitation, the time history along with the phase portrait and the power spectrum of system (1) is portrayed in Figs. 9(a)–(c), respectively. The corresponding results for g ¼ 0.1 and g ¼1.0 are respectively illustrated in Figs. 9(d)–(f) and (h)–(j). These results may indicate that the random noise gW(t) can change the periodic motion to a quasiperiodic motion, and change a limit cycle to a diffused limit cycle. Moreover, the width of the diffused limit cycle increases as the intensity of the random excitation increases. The remarkable influences are further confirmed by the variations of power spectrum, in which it changes from a spectrum with a peak, a spectrum with many discrete peaks to a continuous, broad-band spectrum as the noise intensity increases.

5. Conclusions The present paper studies the principal parametric resonance of a self-excited van der Pol oscillator in the presence of random narrow-band excitation and multiple time delayed state feedback control. The narrow-band noise is a more realistic model in engineering applications than white noise. The state feedback term involves both displacement and velocity feedback. Using a cooperation of analytical methods and numerical analysis, the steady-state trivial and non-trivial responses as well as their dynamic stability have been analyzed in various regimes characterized by tuning frequency, random noise and time delayed feedback. The principal results are presented in these parameter spaces revealing a rich variety of dynamic behaviors including the phenomenon of multiple solutions and time delays induced stabilization or unstabilization. Moreover, an appropriate modulation between the two time delays in feedback control can enhance or reduce the response amplitude. Thus the multiple

time delayed feedback may be acted as a simple and efficient switch to adjust control performance from the viewpoint of vibration control. In addition, the random noise can change a limit cycle to a diffused limit cycle, the width of which increases as the intensity of random excitation increases.
