By introducing an auxiliary ordinary differential equation and solving it by the method of variable separation, abundant types of explicit and exact solutions for the double sinh–Gordon equation are derived in a simple manner.
Bifurcation characteristics of the Langford system in a general form are systematically analysed, and nonlinear controls of periodic solutions changing into invariant tori in this system are achieved. Analytical relationship between control gain and bifurcation parameter is obtained. Bifurcation diagrams are drawn, showing the results of control for secondary Hopf bifurcation and sequences of bifurcations route to chaos. Numerical simulations of quasi-periodic tori validate analytic predictions.
