A Note on the Solutions of the Van der Pol and Duffing Equations Using a Linearisation Method
We present a novel application of the successive linearisation method to the classical Van der Pol and Duffing oscillator equations. By recasting the governing equations as nonlinear eigenvalue problems we obtain accurate values of the frequency and amplitude. We demonstrate that the proposed method...
