Approximate Potentials with Applications to Strongly Nonlinear Oscillators with Slowly Varying Parameters
A method of approximate potential is presented for the study of certain kinds of strongly nonlinear oscillators. This method is to express the potential for an oscillatory system by a polynomial of degree four such that the leading approximation may be derived in terms of elliptic functions. The adv...
