Nonlinear Oscillations: Exact Solutions and Their Approximations

Ivana Kovacic is a Full Professor of Mechanics at the Faculty of Technical Sciences, University of Novi Sad, Serbia, and the Head of the Centre for Vibro-Acoustic Systems and Signal Processing CEVAS at the same faculty. Her research involves the use of quantitative and qualitative methods to study governing equations arising from nonlinear dynamics problems. She is the editor/author of the books ‘The Duffing Equation: Nonlinear Oscillators and their Behaviour’ and ‘Mechanical Vibrations: Fundamentals with Solved Examples’ (both published by Wiley) as well as two textbooks in Serbian. She is a Subject Editor in three academic journals: Journal of Sound and Vibration (Elsevier), Mechanics Research Communications (Elsevier) and Meccanica (Springer).
