Abstract
We consider a model example of a quasilinear wave equation in the unit square with zero boundary conditions and use the method of quasinormal forms to prove that there are quite a few dichotomic cycles and tori bifurcating from zero equilibrium. A conjecture concerning the attractor structure is presented.
