The equivalent linearization method with a weighted averaging for solving undamped nonlinear oscillators (Q2336991): Difference between revisions

Summary: The Equivalent Linearization Method (ELM) with a weighted averaging is applied to analyze five undamped oscillator systems with nonlinearities. The results obtained via this method are compared with the ones achieved by Parameterized Perturbation Method (PPM), Min-Max Approach (MMA), Variational Iteration Method (VIM), Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM), Energy Balance Method (EBM), Harmonic Balance Method (HBM), 4th-Order Runge-Kutta Method, and the exact ones. The obtained results demonstrate that this method is very convenient for solving nonlinear equations and also can be successfully applied to a lot of practical engineering and physical problems.
