Simple examples of one-parameter planar bifurcations.

Armengol Gasull, Rafel Prohens (2000)

Extracta Mathematicae

Similarity:

In this paper we give simple and low degree examples of one-parameter polynomial families of planar differential equations which present generic, codimension one, isolated, compact bifurcations. In contrast with some examples which appear in the usual text books each bifurcation occurs when the bifurcation parameter is zero. We study the total number of limit cycles that the examples present and we also make their phase portraits on the Poincaré sphere.

Local Bifurcations in a Nonlinear Model of a Bioreactor

Dimitrova, Neli (2009)

Serdica Journal of Computing

Similarity:

This paper is partially supported by the Bulgarian Science Fund under grant Nr. DO 02– 359/2008. We consider a nonlinear model of a continuously stirred bioreactor and study the stability of the equilibrium points with respect to practically important model parameters. We determine regions in the parameter space where the steady states undergo transcritical and Hopf bifurcations. In the latter case, the stability of the emerged limit cycles is also studied.
