Analytical Solutions to Non-linear Mechanical Oscillation Problems

In this paper, the Max-Min Method is utilized for solving the nonlinear oscillation problems. The proposed approach is applied to three systems with complex nonlinear terms in their motion equations. By means of this method, the dynamic behavior of oscillation systems can be easily approximated using He Chengtian’s interpolation. The comparison of the obtained results from Max-Min method with time marching solution and the results achieved from literature verifies its convenience and effectiveness. It is predictable that He’s Max-Min Method will find wide application in various engineering problems as indicated in the following cases.In this paper, the Max-Min Method is utilized for solving the nonlinear oscillation problems.
