Abstract: This paper deals with analytical approximate solutions to the Duffing-Harmonic oscillator by a new method. By combining the Newton method and the method of harmonic balance into the rewritten governing equation, we have established improved analytical approximations to the frequency and the corresponding periodic solution of the oscillator. The improved analytical approximations show excellent agreement with the accurate solution, and are valid for the total range of oscillation amplitudes, including the two extreme cases of the oscillation amplitudes respectively approaching zero and infinity.

Key words: Duffing-Harmonic oscillator, Newton method, harmonic balance
