By adding a suitable real function on both sides of the quadratic Riccati differential equation, we propose a weighted type of Adams-Bashforth rules for solving it, in which moments are used instead of the constant coefficients of Adams-Bashforth rules. Numerical results reveal that the proposed method is efficient and can be applied for other nonlinear problems.

In this article, we study the oscillation of solutions to a nonlinear forced fractional differential equation. The fractional derivative is defined in the sense of the modified Riemann-Liouville derivative. Based on a transformation of variables and properties of the modified Riemann-liouville derivative, the fractional differential equation is transformed into a second-order ordinary different...

In this paper, based on the classical Fourth-Order Runge-Kutta method, the modified FourthOrder Runge-Kutta method is presented for solving nonlinear vibration of axially travelling string system, that is to solve time varying and nonlinear differential equations. The classical Fourth-Order Runge-Kutta method can only be used to solve first-order linear differential equations. Its main idea is ...

In this paper, the nonlinear vibrations analysis of functionally graded (FG) rectangular plate in contact with fluid are investigated analytically using first order shear deformation theory (FSDT). The pressure exerted on the free surface of the plate by the fluid is calculated using the velocity potential function and the Bernoulli equation. With the aid of von Karman nonlinearity strain-displ...

Laboratory experiments have shown that when nonlinear, dispersive waves are forced periodically from one end of an undisturbed stretch of the medium of propagation, the signal eventually becomes temporally periodic at each spatial point. It is our purpose here to establish this as a fact at least in the context of a damped Korteweg-de Vries equation. Thus, consideration is given to the initial-...

We study the Whitham equations for the defocusing complex modified KdV (mKdV) equation. These Whitham equations are quasilinear hyperbolic equations and they describe the averaged dynamics of the rapid oscillations which appear in the solution of the mKdV equation when the dispersive parameter is small. The oscillations are referred to as dispersive shocks. The Whitham equations for the mKdV eq...

to start with, having employed transformation wave, some nonlinear partial differential equations have been converted into an ode. then, using the infinite series method for equations with similar linear part, the researchers have earned the exact soliton solutions of the selected equations. it is required to state that the infinite series method is a well-organized method for obtaining exact s...

DAESA, Differential-Algebraic Equations Structural Analyzer, is a MATLAB tool for structural analysis of differential-algebraic equations (DAEs). It allows convenient translation of a DAE system into MATLAB and provides a small set of easy-to-use functions. DAESA can analyze systems that are fully nonlinear, highindex, and of any order. It determines structural index, number of degrees of freed...

Complete nonlinear differential-algebraic equation (DAE) sub-system models are considered in the paper when designing controllers of components in power systems. First-principle models are nonlinear DAE sub-system models, but they use non-local measurable variables to describe the mutual relation (interconnection) between component and the AC grid, and thus they are not suitable for designing d...
