Abstract

Planar discontinuous piecewise linear systems with two linearity zones, one of them being of focus type, are considered. By using an adequate canonical form under certain hypotheses, the bifurcation of a limit cycle, when the focus changes its stability after becoming a linear center, is completely characterized. Analytic expressions for the amplitude, period and characteristic multiplier of the bifurcating limit cycle are provided. The studied bifurcation appears in real world applications, as shown with the analysis of an electronic Wien bridge oscillator without symmetry.
