Abstract
This paper is concerned with the three dimensional motion of a nonlinear dynamical system. The motion is described by nonlinear partial differential equation, which is converted by Galerkin method to three dimensional ordinary differential equations. The three dimensional differential equations, under the influence of external forces, are solved analytically and numerically by the multiple time scales perturbation technique and the Runge-Kutta fourth order method. Phase plane technique and frequency response equations are used to investigate the stability of the system and the effects of the parameters of the system, respectively.
Keywords: Galerkin method, resonances, nonlinearities

1. Introduction
Problems involving nonlinear differential equations are extremely diverse, and methods of solutions or analysis are problem dependent. Nonlinear systems are interesting for engineers, physicists and mathematicians because most physical systems are nonlinear in nature. The sub-combination internal resonance of a uniform cantilever beam of varying orientation with a tip mass under vertical base excitation is studied. The Euler–Bernoulli theory slender beam was used to derive the governing nonlinear partial differential equation [1]. The dynamic stability of a moving string in three-dimensional vibration is investigated [2]. Three nonlinear integro-differential equations of motion are studied and the analysis is focused on the case of primary resonance of the first in-plane flexural mode when its frequency is approximately twice the frequency of the first out-of-plane flexural-torsional mode [3]. The method of multiple time scales is applied to investigate the response of nonlinear mechanical systems with internal and external resonances. The stability of vibrating systems is investigated by applying both the frequency response equation and the phase plane methods. The numerical solutions are focused on both the effects of the different parameters and the behavior of the system at the considered resonance cases [4, 5]. The nonlinear characteristics in the large amplitude three-dimensional free vibrations of inclined sagged elastic cables are investigated [6]. The nonlinear forced vibration of a plate-cavity system is analytically studied. Galerkin method is used to derive coupled nonlinear equations of the system. In order to solve the nonlinear equations of plate-cavity system, multiple scales method is employed. Closed form expressions are obtained for the frequency-amplitude relationship in different resonance conditions [7]. The steady-state periodic response of the forced vibration for an axially moving viscoelastic beam in the supercritical speed range is studied [8]. For this motion, the model is cast in the standard form of continuous gyroscopic systems. Internal Various approximate analytical methods are developed for obtaining solutions for strongly nonlinear differential equations in a complex function. The methods of harmonic balance, Krylov-Bogoliubov and elliptic perturbation are utilized [9]. The problem of suppressing the vibrations of a hinged-hinged flexible beam when subjected to external harmonic and parametric excitations is considered and studied. The multiple scale perturbation method is applied to obtain a first-order approximate solution. The equilibrium curves for various controller parameters are plotted. The stability of the steady state solution is investigated using frequency-response equations. The approximate solution was numerically verified. It is found that all predictions from analytical solutions were in good agreement with the numerical simulations [10].

5. Numerical Results and Discussions
In this section, the Runge-Kutta fourth order method is applied to determine the numerical time series solutions (t, g), (t, h), and (t, k)and the phase planes (g, v), (h, v), (k, v), respectively, for the three modes of the nonlinear system (4-6). Moreover, the fixed points of the model is obtained by solving the frequency response equations (35-37) numerically.

In Figure 2, different resonance cases are investigated and an approximate percentage of increase, if exists, in maximum steady-state amplitude compared to that in the non-resonant case is indicated.

6. Conclusions
We have studied the analytic and numerical solutions of three dimensional nonlinear differential equations that describe the oscillations of abeam subjected to external forces. The multiple scales method and Runge-Kutta fourth order numerical method are utilized to investigate the system behavior and its stability. All possible resonance cases were be extracted and effect of different parameters on system behavior at resonant condition were studied. We may conclude the following:
(1) The steady-state amplitude of the first mode increases as each of the external force amplitude and nonlinear coefficients
are increased.
(2) The steady-state amplitude of the first mode decreases as each of the linear damping coefficient and the nonlinear coefficient
and the natural frequency
are increased.
(3) The steady-state amplitude of the second and third mode increase as the external force amplitude increases.
(4) The steady-state amplitude of the second mode decreases as each of the linear damping coefficient and nonlinear coefficient
and the second mode amplitude
and the natural frequency
are increased.
(5) The steady-state amplitude of the third mode increases as each of the external force amplitude and the first mode amplitude
are increased.
