In the recent past, a simplified solution was obtained by using a modified Krylov-Bogoliubov-Mitropolskii method for a cubic Duffing oscillator in the presence of a linear damped force. However, a similar solution is not always possible for another class of nonlinear oscillators where the inertia type force is involved in the nonlinear function along with the restoring forces and in the presence of linear damping. In this paper, an alternative modification of the Krylov-Bogoliubov-Mitropolskii method is introduced to overcome this limitation. The approximated solutions are achieved and comparison with the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method which are represented graphically. The comparison reveals excellent consistency between them.
Considerable attention has been focused on studying nonlinear damped oscillators in the fields of nonlinear sciences and engineering which are appearing mathematically in the form of nonlinear differential equations. The nonlinear differential equations play a vital role in modelling the inherent nonlinear properties of cantilever beam models, like, helicopter rotor blades, large-span bridges, aircraft wings and so on. The study of nonlinear damped oscillatory systems also has great importance in both theoretical and practical applications. For the damped nonlinear oscillators, several methods have been developed to determine approximate solutions. The classical perturbation techniques1–4 has been randomly used to solve nonlinear problems to obtain approximate solutions. However, for strong nonlinear damped oscillatory problems, the classical perturbation techniques are almost failed to obtain desire results. A semi-analytical method5,6 has been applied to solve nonlinear damped oscillatory systems. The modification of the Lindstedt-Poincare (LP) method gives desired solutions as well as frequencies close to the resonance for strongly nonlinear oscillatory problems.7–13 However, this modification is failed if it is considered the damping effect in the nonlinear function. The Krylov-Bogoliubov-Mitropolskii (KBM) method provides a significant framework for analyzing nonlinear damped oscillatory problems14–16 with small nonlinearities. Popov et al.17 and Mendelson18 extended this method to solve strongly nonlinear damped oscillatory problems. However, they have considered only the first-order approximation in the amplitude and phase variables to avoid complexity of mathematical calculation. The trial approximate solution of the KBM method has considered as an expanding series involving a small parameter.19–27 Amer et al.28–30 has implemented the KBM method to analyze the 3-D motion for rigid body. Recently, a modified Krylov-Bogoliubov-Mitropolskii method31 has been presented for solving damped nonlinear oscillators with large oscillation. Nevertheless, this modification is not always fruitful for another sort of nonlinear oscillator where the inertia type force is involved in the nonlinear function along with the restoring forces and in the presence of linear damping. In this paper, an alternative modification has been introduced to remove this limitation. This is the prime significance in this paper.
The rest of this paper is organized as follows: Firstly, we present the details discussion of the existing and modified KBM method. Then, we implement the modified KBM method to the nonlinear oscillators where the inertia type force is involved in the nonlinear function along with the restoring forces and in the presence of linear damping force. Afterwards, results and discussions are presented in detail. And finally, concluding remarks are given.
Methodology
The KBM method14,15 was originally developed to solve the following nonlinear equation
where is a small parameter, is unperturbed frequency, over dots denote differentiation with respect to and is a nonlinear function such as . According to this method, a solution is expanded in ascending powers of as
where the amplitude and phase variables are denoted by and separately which satisfy the following two first-order differential equations16 as
Later, Popov et al.17 (also Mendelson18) extended the KBM method for solving another type of nonlinear equation as
where , is a damped constant and . It was considered the same solution equation (2), whereas the amplitude and phase variables satisfying the different form of the first-order differential equations as
where is reduced frequency.
Recently, Alam et al.31 modified the KBM method for solving cubic Duffing oscillator in the presence of a linear damped force where the amplitude and phase variables of equations (6) and (7) were rearranged as
In this paper, it is remarkably important that the nonlinear function contains , such that . In this case, the phase variable equation (9) diverges. Therefore, it is considered equation (9) into another form as
Now differentiating (equation (2)) twice with respect to and substituting it together with equations (8) and (9) into equation (5) and equating the coefficients of various powers of , the following equations are obtained
The above equations are linear and easy to solve. Now solving equation (11), , and are obtained by assuming that do not contain the first harmonic terms. Then substituting the values of , and into equation (12) and solving it, , and are obtained. In a similar procedure, other functions are obtained; but it is a tremendously difficult task to obtain more than a sixth approximation. As a result, an alternate approach is required to remove the algebraic complicity. Since, the limiting values of ; and , at are used (details descriptions are given31), equation (5) is rewritten as
Herein similar equations to equations (11) and (12) take the following form by substituting equations (8) and (10) into equation (13) as
Comparing the above two sets of equations, it is clear that equations (14) and (15), are much simpler than equations (11) and (12), . However, another problem arises in the later approach. Solving equation (14), and are obtained only. Then solving equation (15), , and are obtained. Therefore, are obtained from -th approximation. Still now, the latter approach comparatively easy task and saves a lot of calculations.
Example
Let us consider a nonlinear oscillator19 in the presence of the linear damped force as
For this oscillator first and second approximate solutions were obtained in ref 17,18. In ref 31, the third approximation has been determined. In this paper, the tenth approximation is obtained. However, some lower-order functions are shown as the following
and
As a limit , the -series of amplitude equation (8) and phase equation (10) become
and at this limit, the solution equation (2) becomes
Applying the initial condition and then , equation (21) becomes
From equation (22), is transferred in a series of 26 as
After utilizing of equation (23), -series of amplitude, phase and solution are transformed to as
and
According to the modified KBM method,31 equations (24) and (25) are expressed in -series as
In the case of large oscillations, . In this situation, both series are divergent. However, multiplying these series by , the coefficients of them are much reduced. So that the amplitude and phase equations become
where
and
where .
Equation (29) is analytically solved to obtain the amplitude with the initial condition . Substitute this value into equation (30), and the phase value is numerically solved.
Results and discussion
The KBM method was originally used to solve some weak nonlinear problems with small damping effects. Then its extended versions17,18 were implemented to solve strong nonlinear problems with significant damping effects. In a recent published paper,31 the method was modified to solve the cubic Duffing oscillator in the presence of a linear damped force with large oscillations. However, this technique is not directly used for handling some nonlinear oscillators when the nonlinear function is also dependent on the inertia force . In this paper, equation (16) 19 is considered and an approximate solution is obtained for different initial conditions and system parameters which are shown in Figures 1–8.

When the initial amplitude , the values of and are changed swiftly and the amplitude decreases linearly up to the amplitude . After that, it decreases exponentially and slightly deviates from the numerical results.
Conclusion

The solutions obtained for various system parameters as well as various initial values of have been compared to numerical solutions. It indicates that the solutions are excellent for when and different values of damping coefficient. The approximated solutions show a good coincidence as compared to numerical ones for different initial amplitudes and system parameters. The proposed alternative modification of the KMB method has removed the limitation of the existing one and reveals the novelty, reliability and wider applicability in nonlinear science and engineering.
