Nonlinear dynamics of plasma oscillations modeled by a forced modified Van der Pol-Duffing oscillator

This paper considers nonlinear dynamics of plasma oscillations modeled by a forced modified Van der Pol-Duffing oscillator. These plasma oscillations are described by a nonlinear differential equation of the form $\ddot{x}+ ε(1 +{x}^{2}){\dot{x}} + x+ αε{x}{\dot{x}} + βx^{2}+γx^{3}= F\cos{Ωt}.$ The amplitudes of the forced harmonic, superharmonic and subharmonic oscillatory states are obtained using the harmonic balance technique and the multiple time scales methods. Bifurcation sequences displayed by the model for each type of oscillatory states are performed numerically through the fourth order Runge- Kutta scheme. The influences of the differents parameters and of amplitude of external forced have been found.
