We analyze the occurrence of vibrational resonance in a damped quintic oscillator with three cases of single well of the potential V(x)=1/2omega(0)(2)x(2)+1/4betax(4)+1/6gammax(6) driven by both low-frequency force f cos omegat and high-frequency force g cos Omegat with Omega >> omega. We restrict our analysis to the parametric choices (i) omega(0)(2), beta, gamma > 0 (single well), (ii) omega(0)(2), gamma > 0, beta < 0, beta(2) < 4omega(0)(2)gamma (single well), and (iii) omega(0)(2) > 0, beta arbitrary, gamma < 0 (double-hump single well). From the approximate theoretical expression of response amplitude Q at the low-frequency omega we determine the values of omega and g (denoted as omega(VR) and g(VR)) at which vibrational resonance occurs. We show that for fixed values of the parameters of the system when omega is varied either resonance does not occur or it occurs only once. When the amplitude g is varied for the case of the potential with the parametric choice (i) at most one resonance occur while for the other two choices (ii) and (iii) multiple resonance occur. Further, g(VR) is found to be independent of the damping strength d while omega(VR) depends on d. The theoretical predictions are found to be in good agreement with the numerical result. We illustrate that the vibrational resonance can be characterized in terms of width of the orbit also.

We consider a damped quintic oscillator with double-well and triple-well potentials driven by both low-frequency force f cos (omega)t and high-frequency force g cos (Omega)t with Omega>>omega and analyze the occurrence of vibrational resonance. The response consists of a slow motion with frequency omega and a fast motion with frequency Omega. We obtain an approximate analytical expression for the response amplitude Q at the low-frequency omega. From the analytical expression of Q, we determine the values of omega and g (denoted as omega(VR) and g(VR)) at which vibrational resonance occurs. The theoretical predictions are found to be in good agreement with numerical results. We show that for fixed values of the parameters of the system, as omega varies, resonance occurs at most one value of omega. When the amplitude g is varied we found two and four resonances in the system with double-well and triple-well cases, respectively. We present examples of resonance (i) without cross-well motion and (ii) with cross-well orbit far before and far after it. omega(VR) depends on the damping strength d while g(VR) is independent of d. Moreover, the effect of d is found to decrease the response amplitude Q.

The influence of linear time-delayed feedback on vibrational resonance is investigated in underdamped and overdamped Duffing oscillators with double-well and single-well potentials driven by both low frequency and high frequency periodic forces. This task is performed through both theoretical approach and numerical simulation. Theoretically determined values of the amplitude of the high frequency force and the delay time at which resonance occurs are in very good agreement with the numerical simulation. A major consequence of time-delayed feedback is that it gives rise to a periodic or quasiperiodic pattern of vibrational resonance profile with respect to the time-delayed parameter. An appropriate time delay is shown to induce a resonance in an overdamped single-well system which is otherwise not possible. For a range of values of the time-delayed parameters, the response amplitude is found to be larger than in delay-time feedback-free systems.
