Exact Solutions to Cubic Duffing Equation by Leaf Functions Under Free Vibration

Abstract

Exact solutions with the initial conditions are presented in the cubic duffing equation. These exact solutions are expressed in terms of the leaf function and the trigonometric function. The leaf functions: $r=sleaf_n(t) $ or $ r=cleaf_n(t)$ satisfy the ordinary differential equation: $ dx^2/dt^2=-nr^{2n-1}$. The second order differential of the leaf function is equal to $-n$ times the function raised to the $(2n-1)$ power of the leaf function. By using the Leaf functions, the exact solutions of the cubic Duffing equation can be derived under several conditions. In this paper, seven types of the exact solutions are presented based on the leaf functions. This paper reveals the derivation of the seven exact solutions. Finally, the waves based on the exact solutions are visualized by the numerical results in the graphs

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
