“Steady state” periodic solutions are sought to the forced Duffing equation. The solutions are expressed as formal Fourier series, giving rise to an infinite system of non-linear algebraic equations for the Fourier coefficients. This system is then solved using perturbation series in the amplitude of the forcing term. Solution profiles of high accuracy and phase-plane orbits are presented. The existence of limiting values of the forcing amplitude is discussed, and points of non-linear resonance are identified.
