Extract

The equations of motion of many mechanical systems reduce to ordinary differential equations with time dependent parameters. A single degree of freedom system, with the damping and restoring forces varying with time according to the law … m (t+k)nhas been studied using the WKBJ approximation. The general solution of the differential equation can be used to arrive at the response of such time dependent systems, subjected to excitations which are specified to be of either deterministic or stochastic nature.
