            Abstract : 
A singularly perturbed nonlinear time delay system is considered. It is shown that as the system becomes more singular, it evolves through a series of bifurcations into chaotic behavior. Describing functions are used to predict when the initial bifurcations occur. Based on the attractor dimension, reduced-order finite-dimensional models are obtained that qualitatively reproduce the system dynamics
