Modeling of large amplitude of structures such as slender, flexible cantilever beam and fluid-structure resting on nonlinear elastic foundations or subjected to stretching effects often lead to strongly nonlinear models of Duffing equations which are not amendable to exact analytical methods. In this work, explicit analytical solutions to the large amplitude nonlinear oscillation systems of cub...

There has been extensive work on the existence of periodic solutions for nonlinear second order autonomous differantial equations, but little work regarding the third order problems. The popular Poincare-Bendixon theorem applies well to the former but not the latter (see [2] and [3]). We give a necessary condition for the existence of periodic solutions for the third order autonomous system...

In this article the nonlinear mixed Volterra-Fredholm integral equations are investigated by means of the modied three-dimensional block-pulse functions (M3D-BFs). This method converts the nonlinear mixed Volterra-Fredholm integral equations into a nonlinear system of algebraic equations. The illustrative   examples are provided to demonstrate the applicability and simplicity of our   scheme.    

Herein paper compares the analytical model with the FEM based numerical model of the axisymmetric bending of circular sandwich plates. Also, the paper describes equations of the circular symmetrical sandwich plates bending with isotropic face sheets and the nonlinear elastic core material. The method of constructing an analytical solution of nonlinear differential equations has been described. ...

A semi-analytical method is used to study the effects of the multi vibration absorbers on the nonlinear functionally graded (FG) Euler-Bernoulli beam subjected to periodic load. The material properties of the beam are assumed to be continuously graded in the thickness direction. The governing equations of functionally graded beam are obtained based on the Hamilton's principle and these equation...

alternative legendre polynomials (alps) are used to approximate the solution of a class of nonlinear volterra-hammerstein integral equations. for this purpose, the operational matrices of integration and the product for alps are derived. then, using the collocation method, the considered problem is reduced into a set of nonlinear algebraic equations. the error analysis of the method is given an...

in this paper, we apply the laplace decomposition method to obtain a series solutions of the burgers-huxley and burgers-fisher equations. the technique is based on the application of laplace transform to nonlinear partial differential equations. the method does not need linearization, weak nonlinearity assumptions or perturbation theory and the nonlinear terms can be easily handled by using the...
