A plucked guitar string can vibrate for seconds before falling silent. A playground swing, emptied of its passenger, will gradually come to rest ...

The phase shift and corresponding small frequency modulation for weakly dissipated nonlinear oscillators with slowly varying coefficients is calculated for the first time. This extends and corrects ...
