Abstract:
This chapter introduces the concept of bifurcation in a dynamical system, focusing primarily on planar systems. It begins by discussing the bifurcations of equilibrium points that occur in conservative mechanical systems and planar systems. Then, it describes the main bifurcations related to limit cycles, including the Hopf bifurcation, bifurcation from a center, and bifurcation from a homoclinic loop. Finally, specific systems are presented and studied, including a nonlinear oscillator and a chemical oscillator.
