Abstract

The 1/3 subharmonic solution for the Duffing's equation is investigated by using the methods of harmonic balance and numerical integration. The sensitivity of parameter variation for the transient process and the transient process for the perturbance initial conditions are studied. Over and above, the precision of numerical integration method is discussed and the numerical integration method is compared with the harmonic balance method. Finally, asymptotical stability of the pure subharmonic oscillations element is inspected.
