SUMMARY:Nonlinear resonance and excitability in interconnected systems - I

DESCRIPTION:Mechanical and electrical systems have long been fundamental e
 xamples for researchers in systems and control theory. In this talk I will
  present how we addressed questions about interconnected systems of intere
 st in two applications: vibration absorption and bursting generation. In t
 he first part I will explain how coupling singularity theory with classica
 l methods gives us a powerful viewpoint on nonlinear frequency responses. 
 In the second part I will address how we can understand bursting as being 
 generated by the interconnection of two active circuits. I think of these 
 two examples as fundamental in the respective domains\, and hope that they
  will form the basis of a systems and control theory away from equilibrium
