The extended homotopy analysis method (EHAM) is presented to establish the analytical approximate solutions for two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) coupled van der Pol-Duffing oscillator Meanwhile the comparisons between the results of the EHAM andstandard Runge-Kutta numerical method are also presented The results demonstrate that the analytical approximate solutions ofthe EHAM agree well with the numerical integration solutions For EHAM as an analytical approximation method we are not surewhether it can apply to all of the nonlinear systems we can only verify its effectiveness through specific cases As a result of theexistence of nonlinear terms we must study different types of systems no matter from the complication of calculation and physicalsignificance
1 Introduction
Mathematical methods for the natural and engineeringsciences problems have drawn considerable attention inrecent years In normal circumstances most of the nonlineardynamical models can be governed by a set of differentialequations and auxiliary conditions from modeling processes[1] Numerous analytical methods have been developed todeal with the nonlinear differential equations such as themodified perturbation methods [2ndash5] improved harmonicbalance methods [6 7] energy balance method [8 9] andthe frequency-amplitude formulation [10 11] Enlighteningfrom the basic concepts of the homotopy in topology [12 13]Liao developed the homotopy analysis method (HAM) [14ndash16] which does not require small parameters as one of theefficient analytical techniques in solving a variety of nonlinearvibration problems
Recently great attention is paid to the discussion ofcoupled oscillators of nonlinear dynamical systems becausemost of practical engineering problems can be governedby such coupled systems [17ndash19] The extended homotopyanalysis method (EHAM) is one method based on the HAMenvisioned first by Liao [16] More recently Qian et al[20] extended the HAM to deal with strongly nonlinear
coupled van der Pol oscillators For EHAM as an analyticalapproximation method we are not sure whether it canapply to all of the nonlinear systems we can only verifyits effectiveness through specific cases As a result of theexistence of nonlinear terms wemust study different types ofsystems no matter from the complication of calculation andphysical significance By solving such example it is illustratedthat the present techniques are not an adhoc approach itcan be generalized to investigate more complicated nonlinearmulti-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) dynamical systems
In the present work the exact analytical series solutionsof the two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) coupled van der Pol-Duffing system are obtained by using the EHAM and we alsoestablish the comparisons between the results of the EHAMand standard Runge-Kutta numerical method It is shownthat the periodic solutions of the EHAM are in excellentagreement with the numerical integration ones even if time119905 progresses to a certain large domain In what followsSection 2 presents the EHAM of the MDOF dynamicalsystem Moreover the EHAM is presented to establish theanalytical approximate solutions for 2-DOF coupled vander Pol-Duffing oscillator in the next section In Section 4numerical comparisons are carried out to authenticate the

2 The Extended Homotopy Analysis Method
TheMDOF dynamical system is considered by the followingequation
119872 119902 + 119866 119902 + 119870119902 = 119865 ( 119902 119902 119905) (1)
where 119902 is an 119899-dimensional unknown vector a dot denotesthe derivative with respect to time 119905 119872 119866 and 119870 arerespectively 119899times 119899mass damping and stiffness matrixes and119865 is the vector function of 119902 119902 and 119905 Let 119865( 119902 119902 119905) equiv 0 then(1) is an autonomous dynamical system
From (1) we define a nonlinear operator as
119873[119906 (119903 119905)] = 1198721205972119906 (119903 119905)

where 119906(119903 119905) is an unknown vector value function and 119903 and119905 are spatial and temporal variables respectively
In (2) the unknown vector functions of 119906(119903 119905)120597119906(119903 119905)120597119905 and 1205972119906(119903 119905)1205971199052 are respectively

According to the fundamental concepts and workingprocedures of the HAM [1 2] the zeroth-order deformationequation can be constructed as follows
(1 minus 119901) 119871 [Φ (119903 119905 119901) minus 1199060(119903 119905)]

21198672(119905) Π [Φ (119903 119905 119901)]
(4)
where 119901 isin [0 1] is an embedding parameter 1199060(119903 119905) is the
solution of initial guess 119871 is an auxiliary linear operator andℎ119894and 119867
119894(119905) are the auxiliary parameters and the functions
respectivelyThe operator Π[Φ(119903 119905 119901)] has the following property
Π [Φ (119903 119905 0)] = Π [Φ (119903 119905 1)] = 0 (5)
When 119901 = 0 and 119901 = 1 the zeroth-order deformationequation (4) is Φ(119903 119905 0) = 119906
0(119903 119905) and Φ(119903 119905 1) = 119906(119903 119905)
respectively Hence as 119901 increases from 0 to 1 the solution
Φ(119903 119905 119901) varies from the initial guess solution 1199060(119903 119905) to the
exact solution 119906(119903 119905) In this paper

Φ1(120591 0) = 119906
10(120591) Φ
2(120591 0) = 119906
20(120591) Ω (0) = 120596

(27)
While 119901 = 1 the zeroth-order deformation equations(24)ndash((26a) (26b)) are equivalent to the original equations(16a) (16b) and (17) Thus we get
Φ1(120591 1) = 119906
1(120591) Φ
2(120591 1) = 119906
2(120591) Ω (1) = 120596 (28)
Obviously as the embedding parameter 119901 varies from 0to 1Φ
119894(120591 119901) changes from the initial guess 119906
1198940(120591) to the exact

initial guess frequency1205960to the nonlinear physical frequency
120596With the help of the Taylor series expansion and (13) we

Moreover the fifth-order analytical solutions (1199091(119905)
1199092(119905) and 120596) are given as

5 Conclusions
In the present paper the EHAM approach is applied to getasymptotic analytical series solutions of 2-DOF van der Pol-Duffing oscillators with a nonlinear coupling The basic ideadescribed in this paper is expected to be more employedin solving other dynamical systems in engineering andphysical sciences Comparisons with the numerical resultsare presented to demonstrate the validity of this method Insummary compared with some other methods the EHAMhas the following advantages
(1) The EHAM provides an ingenious avenue for con-trolling the convergences of approximation seriesNumerical comparisons demonstrate that the EHAMis an effective and robust analytical method of 2-DOFvan der Pol-Duffing oscillators

According to the fundamental concepts and workingprocedures of the HAM [1 2] the zeroth-order deformationequation can be constructed as follows
(1 minus 119901) 119871 [Φ (119903 119905 119901) minus 1199060(119903 119905)]

where 119901 isin [0 1] is an embedding parameter 1199060(119903 119905) is the
solution of initial guess 119871 is an auxiliary linear operator andℎ119894and 119867
119894(119905) are the auxiliary parameters and the functions
respectivelyThe operator Π[Φ(119903 119905 119901)] has the following property
Π [Φ (119903 119905 0)] = Π [Φ (119903 119905 1)] = 0 (5)
When 119901 = 0 and 119901 = 1 the zeroth-order deformationequation (4) is Φ(119903 119905 0) = 119906
0(119903 119905) and Φ(119903 119905 1) = 119906(119903 119905)
respectively Hence as 119901 increases from 0 to 1 the solution
Φ(119903 119905 119901) varies from the initial guess solution 1199060(119903 119905) to the

The initial conditions of the numerical integrationmethod are 119909

Moreover the fifth-order analytical solutions (1199091(119905)
1199092(119905) and 120596) are given as

5 Conclusions
In the present paper the EHAM approach is applied to getasymptotic analytical series solutions of 2-DOF van der Pol-Duffing oscillators with a nonlinear coupling The basic ideadescribed in this paper is expected to be more employedin solving other dynamical systems in engineering andphysical sciences Comparisons with the numerical resultsare presented to demonstrate the validity of this method Insummary compared with some other methods the EHAMhas the following advantages
(1) The EHAM provides an ingenious avenue for con-trolling the convergences of approximation seriesNumerical comparisons demonstrate that the EHAMis an effective and robust analytical method of 2-DOFvan der Pol-Duffing oscillators

5 Conclusions
In the present paper the EHAM approach is applied to getasymptotic analytical series solutions of 2-DOF van der Pol-Duffing oscillators with a nonlinear coupling The basic ideadescribed in this paper is expected to be more employedin solving other dynamical systems in engineering andphysical sciences Comparisons with the numerical resultsare presented to demonstrate the validity of this method Insummary compared with some other methods the EHAMhas the following advantages
(1) The EHAM provides an ingenious avenue for con-trolling the convergences of approximation seriesNumerical comparisons demonstrate that the EHAMis an effective and robust analytical method of 2-DOFvan der Pol-Duffing oscillators

For 119901 = 0 the solutions of (24)ndash((26a) (26b)) are

While 119901 = 1 the zeroth-order deformation equations(24)ndash((26a) (26b)) are equivalent to the original equations(16a) (16b) and (17) Thus we get

The initial conditions of the numerical integrationmethod are 119909

Moreover the fifth-order analytical solutions (1199091(119905)
1199092(119905) and 120596) are given as
1199091(119905) = 199884944 cos120596119905 + 000321365 sin120596119905

in which
120596 = 120596 + 120592 = 098696631 (39)

In the present paper the EHAM approach is applied to getasymptotic analytical series solutions of 2-DOF van der Pol-Duffing oscillators with a nonlinear coupling The basic ideadescribed in this paper is expected to be more employedin solving other dynamical systems in engineering andphysical sciences Comparisons with the numerical resultsare presented to demonstrate the validity of this method Insummary compared with some other methods the EHAMhas the following advantages
(1) The EHAM provides an ingenious avenue for con-trolling the convergences of approximation seriesNumerical comparisons demonstrate that the EHAMis an effective and robust analytical method of 2-DOFvan der Pol-Duffing oscillators
Abstract and Applied Analysis 7
(2) Because of its flexibility the present techniques canalso be further generalized to analyze more compli-cated nonlinear MDOF dynamical systems that canonly be analyzed by numerical methods

In the present paper the EHAM approach is applied to getasymptotic analytical series solutions of 2-DOF van der Pol-Duffing oscillators with a nonlinear coupling The basic ideadescribed in this paper is expected to be more employedin solving other dynamical systems in engineering andphysical sciences Comparisons with the numerical resultsare presented to demonstrate the validity of this method Insummary compared with some other methods the EHAMhas the following advantages
(1) The EHAM provides an ingenious avenue for con-trolling the convergences of approximation seriesNumerical comparisons demonstrate that the EHAMis an effective and robust analytical method of 2-DOFvan der Pol-Duffing oscillators
Abstract and Applied Analysis 7
(2) Because of its flexibility the present techniques canalso be further generalized to analyze more compli-cated nonlinear MDOF dynamical systems that canonly be analyzed by numerical methods
