摘要:In this article, we find a special class of homoclinic solutions which tend to 0 as t → ± ∞ , for a forced generalized Liénard system x ¨ + f 1 ( x ) x ˙ + f 2 ( x ) x ˙ 2 + g ( x ) = p ( t ) . Since it is not a small perturbation of a Hamiltonian system, we cannot employ the well-known Melnikov method to determine the existence of homoclinic solutions. We use a sequence of periodically forced systems to approximate the considered system, and find their periodic solutions. We prove that the sequence of those periodic solutions has an accumulation which gives a homoclinic solution of the forced Liénard type system. MSC:34A34, 34C99.
