Nonlinear dynamics of hysteretic oscillators

The dynamic response and bifurcations of a harmonic oscillator with a hysteretic restoring force and sinusoidal excitation are investigated. A multilinear model of hysteresis is presented. A hybrid system approach is used to formulate and study the problem. A novel method for obtaining exact transie...
