The steady state motion of a folded pendulum has been studied using frequencies of drive that are mainly below the natural (resonance) frequency of the instrument. Although the free-decay of this mechanical oscillator appears textbook…

Non-linear equations of radial motion of a gas bubble in a compressible viscous liquid have been modified considering effects of viscosity and compressibility more complete than all previous works. A new set of equations has been derived…

We establish a relationship between the normalized damping coefficients and the time that takes a nonlinear pendulum to complete one oscillation starting from an initial position with vanishing velocity. We establish some conditions on the…

The inadequacy of the classical viscous damping model in capturing dissipation across a wide range of applications has led to the development of non-viscous damping models. While non-viscous models describe damping force satisfactorily,…

A 3D pendulum consists of a rigid body, supported at a fixed pivot, with three rotational degrees of freedom. The pendulum is acted on by a gravitational force. Symmetry assumptions are shown to lead to the planar 1D pendulum and to the…

The humble pendulum is often invoked as the archetype of a simple, gravity driven, oscillator. Under ideal circumstances, the oscillation frequency of the pendulum is independent of its mass and swing amplitude. However, in most real-world…

We investigate the impact of nonlinear damping on the dynamics of a nanomechanical doubly clamped beam. The beam is driven into nonlinear regime and the response is measured by a displacement detector. For data analysis we introduce a…

As the motions of nonconservative autonomous systems are typically not periodic, the definition of nonlinear modes as periodic motions cannot be applied in the classical sense. In this paper, it is proposed 'make the motions periodic' by…

Using the damped pendulum system we introduce the averaging method to study the periodic solutions of a dynamical system with small perturbation. We provide sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic solutions with small amplitude…

The non-linear bubble dynamics equations in a compressible liquid have been modified considering the effects of compressibility of both the liquid and the gas at the bubble interface. A new bubble boundary equation has been derived, which…

A modification of Coulomb's law of friction uses a variable coefficient of friction that depends on a power law in the energy of mechanical oscillation. Through the use of three different exponents: 0, 1/2 and 1; all commonly encountered…

Going beyond the linearized study has been a longstanding problem in the theory of Landau damping. In this paper we establish exponential Landau damping in analytic regularity. The damping phenomenon is reinterpreted in terms of transfer of…

Differential analysis aims at inferring global properties of nonlinear behaviors from the local analysis of the linearized dynamics. The paper motivates and illustrates the use of differential analysis on the nonlinear pendulum model, an…

In the present paper, the nonlinear differential equation of pendulum is investigated to find an exact closed form solution, satisfying governing equation as well as initial conditions. The new concepts used in the suggested method are…

Nonlinear damping, the change in damping rate with the amplitude of oscillations plays an important role in many electrical, mechanical and even biological oscillators. In novel technologies such as carbon nanotubes, graphene membranes or…

The mathematical model representing the equation of motion of a pendulum is nonlinear. Solutions that satisfy the equation cannot be represented by elementary functions, such as trigonometric functions. To solve such problems, it is common…

A new description of the dynamics of warped accretion discs is presented. A theory of fully nonlinear, slowly varying bending waves is developed, involving a proper treatment of viscous fluid dynamics but neglecting self-gravitation. The…

In a recent paper it was proposed that for some nonlinear shell models of turbulence one can construct a linear advection model for an auxiliary field such that the scaling exponents of all the structure functions of the linear and…

We investigate the nonlinear effect of a pendulum with the upper end fixed to an elastic rod which is only allowed to vibrate horizontally. The pendulum will start rotating and trace a delicate stationary pattern when released without…

An analytical theory is developed to describe the dynamics of a closed lipid bilayer membrane (vesicle) freely suspended in a general linear flow. Considering a nearly spherical shape, the solution to the creeping-flow equations is obtained…
