Abstract

A generalized Van del Pol oscillator with slowly varying parameter is studied. The leading order approximate solutions are obtained respectively by three methods and comparisons are made with numerical results. Different amplitudes are also made to compare the accuracy of the three methods.
Keywords: Van del Pol equation; slowly varying parameter; approximate potential method; equivalent nonlinearization method; multiple scales method; numerical verification Van del Pol equation; slowly varying parameter; approximate potential method; equivalent nonlinearization method; multiple scales method; numerical verification
