Abstract
This Letter applies He's parameter-expansion method to oscillators with smooth nonlinearities. The method does not depend upon small parameter assumption, hence it is very better than the perturbation method. In parameter-expansion method the solution and unknown frequency of oscillation are expanded in a series by a bookkeeping parameter. By imposing the non-secularity condition at each order in the expansion the method provides different approximations to both the solution and the frequency of oscillation. One iteration step provides an approximate solution which is valid for the whole solution domain. The method can be easily extended to other nonlinear oscillations.
