Abstract

We consider the nonlinear wave equation utt -uxx = ±u3 and the beam equation utt +uxxxx = ±u3 on an interval. Numerical observations indicate that time-periodic solutions for these equations are organized into structures that resemble branches and seem to undergo bifurcations. In addition to describing our observations, we prove the existence of time-periodic solutions for various periods (a set of positive measure in the case of the beam equation) along the main nontrivial "branch." Our proofs are computer-Assisted.
