  1. Choose parameters (δ,α,β,γ,ω) of the forced Duffing equation

    x¨+δx˙+αx+βx3=γcos(ωt),

    such that the shows chaotic, period-1, period-2, period-4 behavior. For each case, display the:

    1. Time trajectory x(t), and velocity function x˙(t);

    2. Phase portrait of the system;

    3. Poincaré section.
