✦ Synopsis

Non-linear oscillators under harmonic and/or weak stochastic excitations are considered in this paper. Under harmonic excitations alone, an analytical technique based on a set of exponential transformations followed by harmonic balancing is proposed to solve for a variety of one-periodic orbits. The stability boundaries for such orbits in the associated parameter space are constructed using the Floquet theory. Under a combination of harmonic and weak stochastic excitations, a stochastic perturbation approach around the deterministic orbit is adopted to obtain response statistics in terms of the evolving moment functions. In the present study, the stochastic perturbation is assumed to be an additive white noise process and equations for the evolving moments are derived using Ito di!erential rule. A "fth order cumulant neglect closure is used to close the in"nite hierarchy of moment equations. Limited numerical results are presented to illustrate the implementation of the proposed scheme. The method is found to be quite versatile and admits ready extensions to Md.o.f. systems under combined harmonic and white or non-white, multiplicative or additive random excitations.

In this work we expand our research on the global behavior of non-linear oscillators under external and parametric excitations. We consider a non-linear oscillator simultaneously excited by parametric and external functions. The oscillator has a bias parameter that breaks the symmetry of the motion.

The concept of linear systems with random coefficients is used to obtain an analytical approximation of the power spectral density (PSD) function of the response of an oscillator with non-linear inertia, damping and stiffness terms. To identify the parameters involved in the non-linear terms, a proc

Chaotic oscillations of a harmonically excited mass on a non-linear isolator are investigated. The magnitude of the strictly dissipative damping force on the mass, provided by the isolator, is assumed to be proportional to the pth power of velocity. Both symmetric and asymmetric non-linear restoring
