A power series method is presented for the computation of normal modes and frequencies of an elastic beam resting on a non-linear foundation. The equation of motion is first discretized by using the Galerkin procedure. The time-dependent generalized co-ordinates are obtained by transforming the time

A method based on the power series technique is developed for the computation of normal modes and frequencies of a non-linear conservative lumped parameter system. The power series analysis is facilitated upon transforming the time variable into an harmonically oscillating time. Recurrence relations
The Karhunen}Loeve (K}L) decomposition procedure is applied to a system of coupled cantilever beams with non-linear grounding sti!nesses and a system of non-linearly coupled rods. The former system possesses localized non-linear normal modes (NNMs) for certain values of the coupling parameters and h
