Global bifurcations and chaos in nonlinear mechanical systems
The local and global bifurcation behavior of various structural and mechanical systems have been examined in detail. The analysis is divided into three main parts. In the first part, global bifurcation analysis is performed for externally excited nonlinear systems with initial imperfections and a …

Stability analysis and control for bipedal locomotion using energy methods
… is spanned by the total energy of the system and its derivative, and different energy trajectories represent the energy portrait in the plane. One of the advantages of this method is that the stability of the limit cycles can be easily shown in a 2D plane regardless of the dimension of the …
