In this paper an initial}boundary value problem for the vertical displacement of a weakly non-linear elastic beam with an harmonic excitation in the horizontal direction at the ends of the beam is studied. The initial}boundary value problem can be regarded as a simple model describing oscillations o

โฆ Synopsis
This paper investigates the question of interaction of non-linear oscillations. In Part I some general considerations regarding the existence, stability and certain topological rules of selection between several oscillations are outlined. In Part II these results are applied to the differential equation ~-e(x 2 -1)~ -1-[i + (a -cx 2) cos 2t]x = 0 investigated by the stroboscopic method as far as the first approximation is concerned. The problem of interaction of oscillations is studied in the general case and in some special cases. * Prepared under Contract N6-onr-251 Task Order 2 (NR-041-943) for Air Research and Development Command and Office of Naval Research.
