Abstract

In this paper, the analytical methods for approximate solutions of periodic motions to chaos in nonlinear dynamical systems are reviewed. Briefly discussed are the traditional analytical methods including the Lagrange stand form, perturbation methods, and method of averaging. A brief literature survey of approximate methods in application is completed, and the weakness of current existing approximate methods is also discussed. Based on the generalized harmonic balance, the analytical solutions of periodic motions in nonlinear dynamical systems with/without time-delay are reviewed, and the analytical solutions for period-m motion to quasi-periodic motion are discussed. The analytical bifurcation trees of period-1 motion to chaos are presented as an application.
