Abstract

This paper recommends a simple and excusive approach to a strongly nonlinear oscillator. Its frequency property can be immediately obtained by the simplest calculation. The results show that the method leads to an approximate solution with relatively high accuracy. Considering the simplest solution process, this paper provides a highly efficient tool for fast determination of the amplitude-frequency relationship of a nonlinear oscillator. The large amplitude vibration of a string is used as an example to illustrate the solution process.
