Novel equivalent function for deadzone nonlinearity: applied to analytical solution of beam vibration using He's Parameter Expanding Method

This study intends to introduce the novel and efficient exact equivalent function (EF) for well-known deadzone nonlinearity. To indicate the effectiveness of this EF, the nonlinear vibration of cantilever beam in presence of deadzone nonlinear boundary condition is studied. The powerful analytical m...
