Abstract

This chapter investigates the energy flow characteristics of local bifurcations for nonlinear dynamical systems. Similar to the centre manifold theorem developed from the Jacobian matrix, we propose a centre energy flow theorem based on the eigenvalues of the energy flow matrix, for which two examples are given to demonstrate its applications. Four simplest energy flow bifurcations of equilibria: saddle-node, transcritical, pitchfork and Hopf ones are discussed.
