Periodic solution for strongly nonlinear vibration systems by using the homotopy analysis method

Vibration Analysis of a Nonlinear Beam Under Axial Force by Homotopy Analysis Method

In this paper, Homotopy Analysis Method is used to analyze free non-linear vibrations of a beam simply supported by pinned ends under axial force. Mid-plane stretching is also considered for dynamic equation extracted for the beam. Galerkin decomposition technique is used to transform a partial dimensionless nonlinear differential equation of dynamic motion into an ordinary nonlinear differenti...

Assessment of Homotopy Analysis Method and Modified Homotopy Perturbation Method for Strongly Nonlinear Oscillator

Some recently developed analytical methods namely; homotopy analysis method, homotopy perturbation method and modified homotopy perturbation method are applied successfully for solving strongly nonlinear oscillators. The analytical results obtained by using HAM are compared with those of HPM, mHPM as well as with numerical results. In this study, different examples with strong nonlinearity are ...

Nonlinear and Non-stationary Vibration Analysis for Mechanical Fault Detection by Using EMD-FFT Method

The Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) is a powerful method for nonlinear and non-stationary vibrations analysis. This approach consists of two basic parts of empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and Hilbert spectral analysis (HSA). To achieve the reliable results, Bedrosian and Nuttall theorems should be satisfied. Otherwise, the phase and amplitude functions are mixed together and consequently, the ...

The modified homotopy perturbation method for solving strongly nonlinear oscillators

In this paper we propose a reliable algorithm for the solution of nonlinear oscillators. Our algorithm is based upon the homotopy perturbation method (HPM), Laplace transforms, and Padé approximants. This modified homotopy perturbation method (MHPM) utilizes an alternative framework to capture the periodic behavior of the solution, which is characteristic of oscillator equations, and to give a ...
