Description
This dataset accompanies the publication: “Analysis of a parametrically excited 2DOF oscillator with nonlinear restoring magnetic force and rotating rectangular beam,” which was accepted in Nonlinear Dynamics.
The dataset contains numerical simulations, analytical results, and computational materials related to the study of a nonlinear two-degree-of-freedom mechanical oscillator subjected to parametric excitation, nonlinear magnetic restoring forces, and dry friction.
The investigated system consists of two coupled oscillators connected through a rotating rectangular beam producing time-periodic stiffness variation. The dynamic response was analysed using analytical and numerical approaches, including complexification-averaging (CxA) method and Runge–Kutta simulations.

Overview
The Mathematica scripts implement the governing equations of motion of a parametrically excited nonlinear 2DOF oscillator and perform analytical and numerical dynamic analysis. The dataset allows reproduction of:
- modulation equations derived using the CxA method
- amplitude–frequency responses
- stability and bifurcation analysis
- Lyapunov exponent evaluation
- time-domain and phase-space responses
The results demonstrate periodic, quasiperiodic, and chaotic dynamics of the considered nonlinear mechanical system.
