Oscillation criteria are established for the second order neutral delay differential equation with distributed deviating argument (r(t) (x(t))Z′(t))′ + ∫ b a q(t, )f [x(g(t, ))] d ( )= 0, t t0, where Z(t)= x(t)+p(t)x(t − ). These results are extensions of the integral averaging techniques due to Coles and Kamenev, and improve some known oscillation criteria in the existing literature. © 2006 El...
