An approximate solution in the nonlinear dynamics of an electromagnetically-actuated cantilever beam.

In this study the nonlinear vibrations of an electromagnetic actuated cantilever are explored. The nonlinear differential equation is solved by means of the Optimal Homotopy Asymptotic Method (OHAM). Comparisons between results obtained using our procedure and those of numerical integration show the effectiveness and reliability of our approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
