Dynamics of a single particle in a horizontally shaken box

摘要: We study the dynamics of a particle in horizontally and periodically shaken box as function parameters coefficient restitution. For certain parameter values, becomes regularly chattered at one walls, thereby loosing all its kinetic energy relative to that wall. The number container oscillations between two chattering events depends fractal manner on system. In contrast vertically vibrated particle, for which is claimed be generic fate, can become trapped periodic orbit follow period-doubling route chaos when restitution changed. also discuss case completely elastic influence friction bottom container.
