Welander developed two versions of his model, one with a smooth transition between convective states, and one with an abrupt non-smooth change. Our focus in this paper is to study the non-smooth model. Approaching through the Poincare Map, we demonstrate analytically the bifurcation of a stable limit cycle surrounding an escaping segment.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-09-07T01:21:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "non-smooth welanders system", "poincare map", "abrupt non-smooth change", "ocean convection", "welanders model" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
