Characterization of nonlinear input-output systems using time series analysis

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5360673

Data obtained from time series analysis has been used for a number of years for the characterization and response prediction of linear systems. This paper describes a time series technique for the analysis of nonlinear systems through the use of embeddings using delay coordinates or appropriate transformations of delay coordinates (local singular value decomposition or local canonical variate analysis). Local linear approaches are used to characterize the state evolution. Application of the technique is illustrated for a single degree of freedom oscillator with nonlinear stiffness, a mechanical chaos beam, and a climatic data time series. In each application analysis from measured data is emphasized. State rank, lyapunov exponents, and expected iterated prediction errors are quantified. The technique illustrated should be useful in the analysis of many forms of experimental data, especially where the state rank is not excessively large. 8 refs., 6 figs.
