Stochastic auto-oscillations of a nonlinear oscillator with impact energy absorber (Q793524)

One considers a nonlinear van der Pol oscillator with impact energy absorber, determining the dependence of all possible forms of the phase pattern on parameters. Also the conditions of steady stochastic motion are defined. The point mapping method is used. Further, the parameter space is divided in regions that qualitatively correspond to different phase patterns of the system.
