Bifurcation Analysis in a Kind of Fourth-Order Delay Differential Equation

A kind of fourth-order delay differential equation is considered. Firstly, the linear stability is investigated by analyzing the associated characteristic equation. It is found that there are stability switches for time delay and Hopf bifurcations when time delay cross through some critical values....
