Complex fluctuations of flexible plates under longitudinal loads with account for white noise

详细

This paper describes the influence of intensity of external additive white noise on the nonlinear dynamics of rectangular plates as mechanical systems with an infinite number of degrees of freedom. A new scenario is discovered, which is a combination of the classic Feigenbaum and Pomeau–Manneville scenarios. The classical methods of nonlinear dynamics and wavelet transforms were used to reveal the peculiarities of a modified scenario. The noise-induced transitions are investigated, and it is shown that the noise exposure is accompanied with the transition to chaotic fluctuations with a lower amplitude of the driving load. It is determined that the presence of external fluctuations does not affect the scenario of transition from harmonic to chaotic fluctuations.
