Abstract
In search of nonlinear oscillations, we envision a 3D elliptic curva-ture-dependent nonuniform charge distribution to creating an electric field along the symmetry axis causing a massive point-like charged particle placed on the symmetry axis to oscillate in a delayed/hesitant nonlinear mode. The charge distribution is a 3D twisted line creating nontrivial electric field causing an unexpected oscillation that is non-orthodox defying the common sense. Calculation of this research flavored investigation is entirely based on utilities accompanied with Computer Algebra Systems (CAS) especially Mathematic [1]. The characteristics of the delayed oscillations in addition to embodying classic graphics displaying the time-dependent kinematic quantities are augmented including various phase diagrams signifying the nonlinear oscillations. The output of our investigation is compared to nonlinear non-delayed oscillations revealing fresh insight. For comprehensive understanding of the hesitant oscillator a simulation program is crafted clarifying visually the scenario on hand.
