The aim of this study is to refine the known Riccati transformation technique to provide new oscillation criteria for solutions to second-order dynamic equations over time. It is important to note that the convergence or divergence of some improper integrals on time scales depends not only on the integration function but also on the integration time scale. Therefore, there has been a motivation to find new oscillation criteria that can be applicable regardless of whether ∫ ζ 0 ∞ Δ ξ a (ξ) is convergent or divergent, in contrast to what has been followed in most previous works in the literature. We have provided an example to illustrate the significance of the obtained results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper focuses on establishing new criteria to guarantee the oscillation of solutions for second-order differential equations with a superlinear and a damping term. New sufficient conditions are presented, aimed at analysing the oscillatory properties of the solutions to the equation under study. To prove these results, we employed various analysis methods, establishing new relationships to address certain problems that have hindered previous research. Consequently, by applying the principles of comparison and the Riccati transformation, we obtained findings that develop and complement those reported in earlier literature. The significance of our results is illustrated with several examples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
