The Duffing Oscillator: Applications and Computational Simulations
Journal Title: Asian Research Journal of Mathematics - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Duffing oscillator (or Duffing Equation) is one of the most significant and classical nonlinear ordinary differential equations in view of its diverse applications in science and engineering. This paper attempts to study some applications of Duffing oscillator and also develop an alternative computational method that may be used to simulate it. In developing the computational method for simulating the Duffing oscillator, power series was adopted as the basis function with the integration carried out within a one-step interval. The computational method developed was applied on some modeled Duffing oscillators and from the results obtained; it is evident that the method developed is computationally reliable.

Decay for Solutions to Semilinear Regularity-Loss Type Equations with Memory
In this paper we consider the initial value problem of an inertial model for a generalized semilinear plate equation with memory in Rn (n ≥ 1). We study the decay and the regularity-loss property for this type of equatio...
Nonparametric Stepwise Procedure for Identification of Maximum Safe Dose (MSD)
In this article we consider identification of maximum safe dose (MSD) in a dose response study for distribution-free endpoints. Where the maximum safe dose is the highest dose level that does not exceed the median toxici...
