Saddle-node bifurcation and homoclinic persistence in AFMs with periodic forcing
Topological structure of integral curves, singular points, limit cycles of ordinary differential equations (34C05) Bifurcation theory for ordinary differential equations (34C23) Normal forms for dynamical systems (37G05) Dynamical systems in classical and celestial mechanics (37N05) Bifurcations and instability for nonlinear problems in mechanics (70K50)
Summary: We study the dynamics of an atomic force microscope (AFM) model, under the Lennard-Jones force with nonlinear damping and harmonic forcing. We establish the bifurcation diagrams for equilibria in a conservative system. Particularly, we present conditions that guarantee the local existence of saddle-node bifurcations. By using the Melnikov method, the region in the space parameters where the homoclinic orbits persist is determined in a nonconservative system.
