Abstract
Normal form theory is very useful for direct bifurcation and stability analysis of nonlinear differential equations modeled in real life. This paper develops a new computation method for obtaining a significant refinement of the normal forms for high dimensional nonlinear systems. The method developed here uses the lower order nonlinear terms in the normal form for the simplifications of higher order terms. In the theoretical model for the nonplanar nonlinear oscillation of a cantilever beam, the computation method is applied to compute the coefficients of the normal forms for the case of two non-semisimple double zero eigenvalues. The normal forms of the averaged equations and their coefficients for non-planar non-linear oscillations of the cantilever beam under combined parametric and forcing excitations are calculated.
