Abstract
The onset of oscillation at non-zero finite amplitude is shown to be governed in the generic case by a scaling law for the frequency of oscillation f in terms of the bifurcation parameter μ – μc namely f ~ (μ – μ)c1/2. This law can be expected to hold whenever such a bifurcation occurs in a nondegenerate system without hysteresis.Keywords
