This paper shows how the Lighthill-Poincaré perturbation technique may be used to determine the transient response of ‘lightly coupled’ non-linear multi-degree-of-freedom oscillatory systems subject to arbitrary forcing functions. The results in general are complex but simplify in many important cases. A comparison is made between the analytical results and results obtained by a numerical integration of the equations on a computer. Good agreement is noted. The method fails under conditions of ‘internal resonance’ of the system.
