Bifurcation Analysis of a Rigid Impact Oscillator with Bilinear Damping

Figure 6

Evolution of the basins of attraction for the impact oscillator with bilinear damping obtained for ,,,,, (a) , (b) , (c) , (d) , (e) , and (f) . Here the period-1 orbit with one impact per period shown in red has a cyan basin, and the period-1 orbit with two impacts per period shown in blue has a magenta basin.
