Numerous unexplained failures of rotating machinery by nonsynchronous shaft whirling point to a possible driving mechanism or source of energy not identified by previously existing theory. A majority of these failures have been in machines characterized by overhung disks (or disks located close to one end of a bearing span) and/or high power and load torque. This paper gives exact solutions to the nonlinear differential equations of motion for a rotor having both of these characteristics and shows that high ratios of driving torque to damping can produce nonsynchronous whirling with destructively large amplitudes. Solutions are given for two cases: (1) viscous load torque and damping, and (2) load torque and damping proportional to the second power of velocity (aerodynamic case). Criteria are given for avoiding the torquewhirl condition.

In the present article, a direct approach, namely exp(-?)-expansion method, is used for obtaining analytical solutions of the Pochhammer-Chree equations which have a many of models. These solutions are expressed in exponential functions expressed by hyperbolic, trigonometric and rational functions with some parameters. Recently, many methods were attempted to find exact solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations, but it seems that the exp(-?)-expansion method appears to be efficient for finding exact solutions of many nonlinear differential equations.

In this article, exact solutions of two (3+1)-dimensional nonlinear differential equations are derived by using the complex method. We change the (3+1)-dimensional B-type Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (BKP) equation and generalized shallow water (gSW) equation into the complex differential equations by applying traveling wave transform and show that meromorphic solutions of these complex differential equations belong to class W, and then, we get exact solutions of these two (3+1)-dimensional equations.


The homotopy perturbation method (HPM) is employed to compute an approximation to the solution of the system of nonlinear differential equations governing on the problem. It has been attempted to show the capabilities and wide-range applications of the homotopy perturbation method in comparison with the previous ones in solving heat transfer problems. The obtained solutions, in comparison with the exact solutions admit a remarkable accuracy. A clear conclusion can be drawn from the numerical results that the HPM provides highly accurate numerical solutions for nonlinear differential equations.

Analysis of a flexible manipulator as an initial value problem, due to its large deformations, involves nonlinear ordinary differential equations of motion. In the present work, these equations are solved through the general Frechet derivatives and the generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method directly. The results so obtained are compared with those of the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method. It is seen that both the results match each other well. Further considering the same manipulator as a boundary value problem, its governing equation is a highly nonlinear partial differential equation. Again applying the general Frechet derivatives and the GDQ method, it is seen that the results are in good match with the linear theory. In both cases, the general Frechet derivatives are introduced and successfully used for linearization. The results of the present study indicate that the GDQ method combined with the general Frechet derivatives can be successfully used for the solution of nonlinear differential equations.

A new problem is studied, that is to find nonlinear differential equations with special solutions expressed via the Weierstrass function. A method is discussed to construct nonlinear ordinary differential equations with exact solutions. The main step of our method is the assumption that nonlinear differential equations have exact solutions which are general solution of the simplest integrable equation. We use the Weierstrass elliptic equation as building block to find a number of nonlinear differential equations with exact solutions. Nonlinear differential equations of the second, third and fourth order with special solutionsexpressed via theWeierstrass function are given. - PACS: 02.30.Hq (Ordinary differential equations)

A nonlinear purely rotational dynamic model of a multistage closed-form planetary gear set formed by two simple planetary stages is proposed in this study. The model includes time-varying mesh stiffness, excitation fluctuation and gear backlash nonlinearities. The nonlinear differential equations of motion are solved numerically using variable step-size Runge-Kutta. In order to obtain function expression of optimization objective, the nonlinear differential equations of motion are solved analytically using harmonic balance method (HBM). Based on the analytical solution of dynamic equations, the optimization mathematical model which aims at minimizing the vibration displacement of the low-speed carrier and the total mass of the gear transmission system is established. The optimization toolbox in MATLAB program is adopted to obtain the optimal solution. A case is studied to demonstrate the effectiveness of the dynamic model and the optimization method. The results show that the dynamic properties of the closed-form planetary gear transmission system have been improved and the total mass of the gear set has been decreased significantly.

A spatial pendulum with the vertical immobile axis and horizontal mobile axis is studied and the differential equations of motion are obtained applying the method of Lagrange equations. The equations of motion were obtained for the general case; the only simplifying hypothesis consists in neglecting the principal moments of inertia about the axes normal to the oscillation axes. The system of nonlinear differential equations was numerically integrated. The correctness of the obtained solutions was corroborated to the dynamical simulation of the motion via dynamical analysis software. The perfect concordance between the two solutions proves the rightness of the equations obtained.

A new Bernoulli equation-based subequation method is proposed to establish variable-coefficient exact solutions for nonlinear differential equations. For illustrating the validity of this method, we apply it to the asymmetric (2 + 1)-dimensional NNV system and the Kaup-Kupershmidt equation. As a result, some new exact solutions with variable functions coefficients for them are successfully obtained.
