This paper is concerned with the existence of time-periodic solutions to the nonlinear wave equation with x -dependent coefficients u ( x ) y tt − ( u ( x ) y x ) x + au ( x ) y +| y | p −2 y = f ( x ,  t ) on (0,  π )× under the periodic or anti-periodic boundary conditions y (0, t )=± y ( π ,  t ), y x (0,  t )=± y x ( π ,  t ) and the time-periodic conditions y ( x ,  t + T )= y ( x ,  t ), y t ( x ,  t + T )= y t ( x ,  t ). Such a model arises from the forced vibrations of a non-homogeneous string and the propagation of seismic waves in non-isotropic media. A main concept is the notion ‘weak solution’ to be given in §2. For T =2 π / k ( k ∈ ), we establish the existence of time-periodic solutions in the weak sense by investigating some important properties of the wave operator with x -dependent coefficients.

A coupling of double Laplace transform with Iterative method is used to solve linear and nonlinear wave equations subject to initial and boundary conditions. The iteration process leads to disappearance of noise terms and exact solution is obtained at first iteration. Through several examples, the convenience and efficiency of the method is demonstrated, showing its usefulness to overcome difficulties associated with some existing techniques.
