We propose a method of perturbation analysis of nearly sinusoidal oscillators with shifting bias, obtained by generalizing a method recently discussed in the literature [1] (Buonomo A, Di Bello C. IEEE ΒΉransactions on Circuits and Systems, 1996; CAS-43:953}963). The problem of periodic oscillations

β¦ Synopsis
We study the dynamics of a thermo-mechanical model for a forced disc shaped, micromechanical limit cycle oscillator. The forcing can be accomplished either parametrically, by modulating the laser beam incident on the oscillator, or nonparametrically, using inertial driving. The system exhibits both 2:1 and 1:1 resonances, as well as quasiperiodic motions and hysteresis. A perturbation method is used to derive slow flow equations, which are then studied using the software packages AUTO and pplane7. Results show that the model agrees well with experiments. Details of the slow flow behavior explain how and where transitions into and out of entrainment occur.

The limit cycle of a class of strongly nonlinear oscillation equations of the form/2 + g(u) = ef (u, iz) is investigated by means of a modified version of the KBM method, where e is a positive small parameter. The advantage of our method is its straightforwardness and effectiveness, which is suitabl
The new idea of calculation of limit cycles of strongly non-linear systems and its several numerical examples were presented in [1]. It is interesting to study the calculation of limit cycles of non-linear systems further, however some defects have been found in [1].
A perturbation method has been used to prove that in the reversible Selkov model, a model describing glycolytic oscillations, the limit cycles emerging at the Hopf points are stable asymptotically within a range of parameter values.
