Abstract A novel procedure to parametrically identify the nonlinearities in a system is presented. In this procedure, the relationships among higher-order transfer functions and higher-order spectra are utilized and expressions are derived for coefficients of non-linearities. Two different nonlinear oscillators are considered as examples to illustrate the procedure. Numerical results are also provided for a nonlinear oscillator.

AbstractThe objective of this paper is to present an investigation to analyze the vibration of a conservative nonlinear oscillator in the form u" + lambda u + u^(2n-1) + (1 + epsilon^2 u^(4m))^(1/2) = 0 for any arbitrary power of n and m. This method converts the differential equation to sets of algebraic equations and solve numerically. We have presented for three different cases: a higher order Duffing equation, an equation with irrational restoring force and a plasma physics equation. It is also found that the method is valid for any arbitrary order of n and m. Comparisons have been made with the results found in the literature the method gives accurate results.

The lagging motion of nonlinear oscillators with respect to the externally driven field was treated analytically and the calculation results were compared with observed results. Such lagging problem may occur in nonlinear systems whose behavior crucially depends on the frequency of the applied force. The lagging motion of the nonlinear oscillator with respect to the harmonically driven field made the oscillator respond in a way that reduced the effect of the applied field. The calculation considering the lagging motion yielded proper results in the expansion ratio of the bubble under ultrasound and trajectories in phase plane, the frequency spectrum for a forced inverted pendulum, and the amplitude response of the Duffing oscillator.

The specific case of scattering of a plane wave by a two-layered penetrable eccentric circular cylinder has been considered and it is about the validity of the on surface radiation condition method and its applications to the scattering of a plane wave by a two-layered penetrable eccentric circular cylinder. The transformation of the problem of scattering by the eccentric circular cylinder to the problem of scattering by the concentric circular cylinder by using higher order radiation conditions, is observed. Numerical results presented the magnitude of the far field.

In this paper, bifurcation trees of periodic motions to chaos in a parametric oscillator with quadratic nonlinearity are investigated analytically as one of the simplest parametric oscillators. The analytical solutions of periodic motions in such a parametric oscillator are determined through the finite Fourier series, and the corresponding stability and bifurcation analyses for periodic motions are completed. Nonlinear behaviors of such periodic motions are characterized through frequency–amplitude curves of each harmonic term in the finite Fourier series solution. From bifurcation analysis of the analytical solutions, the bifurcation trees of periodic motion to chaos are obtained analytically, and numerical illustrations of periodic motions are presented through phase trajectories and analytical spectrum. This investigation shows period-1 motions exist in parametric nonlinear systems and the corresponding bifurcation trees to chaos exist as well.
