The non-piecewise-linear autonomous system. I. More details on the periodic waveforms

In the non-piecewise-linear autonomous system (NPLAS) a power avalanche transistor, whose curve measured in the I-V plane is not simply characterized by piecewise straight-line segments, is used for the nonlinear element. From the NPLAS, much more complicated and detailed bifurcation phenomena than that in other nonautonomous and autonomous systems have been observed. This paper presents quite a number of novel and complex waveform. In order to distinguish and investigate the complex waveforms a new numerical symbol representation is advanced
