Abstract
The jump and bifurcation of Duffing oscillator with hardening spring subject to narrow-band random excitation are systematically and comprehensively examined. It is shown that, in a certain domain of the space of the oscillator and excitation parameters, there are two types of more probable motions in the stationary response of the Duffing oscillator and jumps may occur. The jump is a transition of the response from one more probable motion to another or vise versa. Outside the domain the stationary response is either nearly Gaussian or like a diffused limit cycle. As the parameters change across the boundary of the domain the qualitative behavior of the stationary response changes and it is a special kind of bifurcation. It is also shown that, for a set of specified parameters, the statistics are unique and they are independent of initial condition. It is pointed out that some previous results and interpretations on this problem are incorrect.
