Solved: Consider the model of an undamped nonlinear spring/mass system given by x 8x 6x3

Chapter 3, Problem 8

(choose chapter or problem)

Consider the model of an undamped nonlinear spring/mass system given by \(x^{\prime \prime}+8 x-6 x^{3}+x^{5}=0\). Use a numerical solver to discuss the nature of the oscillations of the system corresponding to the initial conditions:

x(0)=1,  \(x^{\prime}(0)=1 ;                                    x(0)=-2, \(x^{\prime}(0)=\frac{1}{2}\) ;

\(x(0)=\sqrt{2}\),  \(x^{\prime}(0)=1\) ;                    x(0)=2, \(x^{\prime}(0)=\frac{1}{2}\) ;

x(0)=2,  \(x^{\prime}(0)=0\) ;                                  \(x(0)=-\sqrt{2}\), \(x^{\prime}(0)=-1\) .
