Application of modified Mickens iteration procedure to a pendulum and the motion of a mass attached to a stretched elastic wire

The paper deals with the application of a strong method called the modified Mickens iteration technique which is used for solving a strongly nonlinear system. The system describes the motion of a simple mathematical pendulum with a particle attached to it through a stretched wire. This model has great applications especially in the area of nonlinear vibrations and oscillation systems. The proposed method depends on determining the frequency and amplitude of the system through the modified Mickens iterative approach which is a modification of the regular Mickens approach. The preliminaries of the proposed technique are present and the application to the model is discussed. The method depends on the Mickens iteration approach which transforms the considered equation into a linear form and then is solving this equation result in the approximate solution. Some examples are given to validate and illustrate the effectiveness and convenience of the method. These results are compared with other relative techniques from the literature in terms of finding the frequency of the two examined models. The method produces more accurate results when compared to these methods and is considered a strong candidate for solving other nonlinear problems with applications in science and engineering.
