A short remark on the nonlinear oscillator with a damping term

A nonlinear oscillator with a damping term can model many nonlinear vibration problems. This short remark insights into its physical understanding by the variational principle, which is established by the semi-inverse method. The dissipative energy involved in the variational formulation can be expl...

This short remark insights into its physical understanding by the variational principle, which is established by the semi-inverse method.
