AbstractSignificant number of procedures for solving of the finite degree-of-freedom forced nonlinear oscillator are developed. For all of them it is common that they are based on the exact solution of the corresponding linear oscillator. For technical reasons, the aim of this paper is to develop a simpler solving procedure. The rotating vector method, developed for the linear oscillator, is adopted for solving of the nonlinear finite degree-of-freedom oscillator. The solution is assumed in the form of trigonometric functions. Assuming that the nonlinearity is small all terms of the series expansion of the function higher than the first are omitted. The rotating vectors for each mass are presented in the complex plane. In the paper, the suggested rotating vector procedure is applied for solving of a three-degree-of-freedom periodically excited oscillator. The influence of the nonlinear stiffness of the flexible elastic beam, excited with a periodical force, on the resonant properties of the system in whole is investigated. It is obtained that the influence of nonlinearity on the amplitude and phase of vibration is more significant for smaller values of the excitation frequency than for higher ones.

A mathematical model describing the Hering-Breuer reflexes in mechanically ventilated cats is developed. There is good agreement between the properties of the model and experimental studies performed over a wide range of frequencies and volumes of the mechanical ventilator. There is a correspondence between the model and a periodically forced nonlinear oscillator, similar to the van der Pol equation. Brain stem mechanisms underlying the entrainment are discussed.

The periodically forced KdVB and extended KdVB equations are considered. We investigate the structure of the totality of steady profiles. The existence of profiles that are close to any shuffling of two basic profiles is proved, and hence the existence of spatially chaotic and recurrent solutions. The proofs are based on topological degree theory to analyse chaotic behaviour. These proofs combine ideas suggested by P. Zgliczyński ( Zgliczyński 1996 Topol. Methods Nonlinear Anal . 8 , 169–177 ) with the method of topological shadowing. The results are also applicable to the classical problem of a quite general model of a forced nonlinear oscillator with viscous damping.

A forced nonlinear oscillator can exhibit complex transient spectra even in the absence of chaotic phenomena. Series of evenly spaced lines appear in spectrograms of the numerically computed oscillations. They can be explained by means of a simple model describing the dynamics of the energy exchange between the external oscillating force and the nonlinear system. The resulting amplitude and phase modulations are shown to produce the spectral line structures. Frequencies incommensurable with other present frequencies can be generated by the nonlinear system.
