An approximation technique for solving nonlinear oscillators

Abstract

Recently, an approximation technique was presented for solving strong nonlinear oscillators modeled by second-order differential equations. Due to the arising of an algebraic complicity, the method fails to determine suitable solution of some important nonlinear problems such as quadratic oscillator, cubical Duffing oscillator of softening springs, and pendulum equation. However, suitable solutions of these oscillators are found by rearranging only an algebraic equation related to amplitude and frequency. The determination of solutions is simpler than the original version.
