Trajectory design in the spatial circular restricted three-body problem exploiting higher-dimensional Poincare maps
… the role of higher-dimensional Poincaré maps in facilitating trajectory design is explored for a variety of applications. To begin, existing strategies to implement Poincaré maps for trajectory design applications in the spatial CR3BP are evaluated. New applications for these strategies …

Dynamics of 1d granular column
… in fact are enormously complex as computed Poincare maps of the mass center trajectories reveal periodic, period doubling and chaotic regimes.

A theoretical and experimental investigation of parametrically excited nonlinear mechanical systems
… domain. The digital computer is used to obtain Poincare maps of strange attractors, to investigate larger amplitude responses, and to show the transition to a fractal basin of attraction. The system exhibits 2T, 3T, 4T, ST, 6T, 7T, 8T, 12T, 16T, and ∞T period-multiplying bifurcations. The …

Chaotic motions of nonlinearly moored structures
… form of time series, phase portraits, spectra, Poincare maps, and Lyapunov exponents. The influence of various governing parameters on the response is examined. These include a dimensionless wave height, which characterizes the magnitude of the excitation; a relative wave frequency; and gap …

Spacecraft Orbit Design in the Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem Using Higher-Dimensional Poincaré Maps
… are investigated using four-dimensional Poincaré maps. Unlike the planar circular restricted three-body problem, where a two-dimensional map provides a simplified view of a portion of the vast and often chaotic design space, the spatial problem requires a four-dimensional map to achieve an …
