Wilson-Theta Algorithm Approach to solution of Dynamic Vibration Equations

Abstract/Overview

In this paper, we examine conservative autonomous dynamic vibration equation, x¨ = − tanh2 x, which is time vibration of the displacement of a structure due to the internal forces, with no damping or external forcing. Numerical results using Wilson-theta method are tabulated and then represented graphically. Further the stability of the algorithms employed are also discussed.
