Mahmoud Bayat, Mahdi Bayat and Iman Pakar
Abstract
In this paper, He\'s Variational Approach (VA) is used to solve high nonlinear vibration equations. The proposed approach leads us to high accurate solution compared with other numerical methods. It has been established that this method works very well for whole range of initial amplitudes. The method is sufficient for both linear and nonlinear engineering problems. The accuracy of this method is shown graphically and the results tabulated and results compared with numerical solutions.
Key Words
variational approach (VA); nonlinear oscillators; Runge-Kutta\'s algorithm
