Abstract
Chebyshev polynomial approximation is applied to the symmetry-breaking bifurcation problem of a stochastic van der Pol system with bounded random parameter subjected to harmonic excitation. The stochastic system is reduced into an equivalent deterministic system, of which the responses can be obtained by numerical methods. Nonlinear dynamical behaviors related to various forms of stochastic bifurcations in stochastic system are explored and studied numerically.
