IRREGULAR MOTION OF A NONLINEAR TEMPERATURE-PERTURBED VIBRATOR WITH LIMITED-POWER EXTERNAL DRIVE

The motion of a two-mass nonlinear vibrator in the field of potential forces with the energy dissipation depending on the ambient temperature is considered. The effect of a limited-power external moment applied to a subsystem is analyzed. The systemʹs stability is examined. The conditions for irregular motions setting in in the examined dissipative system due to its dissipative characteristics depending on temperature variations, are studied. The results of computer experiments are presented.
