Abstract
A new, “dual” state variable (DSV) formulation is used to construct a model of the van der Pol oscillator. The model is valid for small degrees of non-linearity, and results are superior to those from a common perturbation technique, especially as non-linearity begins to increase. The DSV formulation utilizes a unique state space, and behavior in this space is illustrated for a wider range of non-linearity.
