X Abstract

New phenomena of the dynamics of oscillators with impacts, when the stiffness of the stop changes from zero to infinity, are described. Dynamics of one example of the system with soft impacts, as the model of the piercing machine, is explained in more detail by bifurcation diagrams, time series, phase trajectories and Poincare maps of periodic and chaotic impact motions. Optimal combinations of system parameters are found for the obtaining of maximum before-impact velocities.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
