This paper investigates the applicability of the ancient Chinese algorithm jointly with the two-scale fractal dimension transform to find the frequency–amplitude relationship of fractal equations of motion with and without damping terms. Analytical results show that for a fractal equation of motion without damping terms, the oscillation amplitudes do not exhibit decaying effects. However, when damping terms are included, the fractal parameter tends to shift the decaying oscillation amplitudes that decrease faster with time for fractal values less than one. This paper provides an efficient tool for finding the amplitude–frequency relationship of damped fractal oscillators. To illustrate the solution process, the steady-state solution of the fractal equation of motion that arises in plasma physics is derived. The proposed approach elucidates the applicability of He's formulation jointly with the two-scale fractal calculus to find the frequency–amplitude of fractal systems with and without damping terms.

In this paper, the ancient Chinese algorithm is applied to derive fractal microgravity forced oscillator's frequency–amplitude response curves using the two-scale fractal transform derivative. Depending on the fractal parameter values, it is shown that the system restoring forces exhibit hardening or softening behavior. Furthermore, the proposed solution approach is simple, efficient, and accurate for obtaining the approximate steady-state solution of a fractal microgravity nonlinear oscillator with a purely nonlinear power-form restoring force.

This paper aims to derive the equivalent power-form representation for the Toda oscillator, which describes the intensity fluctuations of Nd:YAG lasers. A two-scale dimension transform is introduced to study the transient fractal response of Toda oscillator. Numerical simulations indicate that for increasing values of the fractal exponent α , the frequency of the Toda oscillator increases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, an equivalent power-form transformation method with a weighted function is applied for solving the one-dimensional fractal Bratu's boundary value equation. Numerical integration solutions obtained from the equivalent Bratu's equation as well as those from its approximate Taylor's series solution reveal that the proposed methodology yields highly accurate solutions. Therefore, it is believed that by applying the power-form transformation, various fractal differential equations in which two scales are needed because of the physical laws involved in modeling the observed phenomena, can be solved by treating the nonlinear terms as equivalent power-form terms.
