    The authors obtain new sufficient conditions for the oscillation of solutions to a class of homogeneous nonlinear damped second-order differential equations of the form \[ \bigl(r(t)y'\bigr)'+ p(t)y'+q(t) f(y)=0. \] Here, the information of \(q(t)\) on a sequence of subintervals of \([t_0,\infty)\) is needed rather than on the whole interval \([t_0,\infty)\) as in earlier works. These results generalize and extend some of the previous results [see \textit{Q. Kong}, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 229, No. 1, 258-270 (1999; Zbl 0924.34026)].
