In ths paper, the exstence of the Coulomb vbratons n the moton of a composte bar, modeled as a Daves and Moon lattce, s dscussed. So, the solutons of nonlnear equatons that govern the moton of the composte bar are smply wrtten as a lnear superposton of Coulomb vbratons. Key words. Composte bar, Coulomb vbratons, Daves and Moon lattce.. ITRODUCTIO The Coulomb vbratons are descrbed wth the elementary Coulomb functons F ( μz, η ) wth F 0 ( μz,0) = sn μz, F 0 ( μz,0) = cos μ z (Abramowtz and Stegun []). These functons represent the elementary unts of vbratons used n ths paper to develop the general solutons of a composte bar. The composte bar means a bar wth a double helx structure (MacKay and Aubry []), such as DA (fg..). The varable radus of the composte bar verfes the perodcal relaton r = asn x= asn( π + x), 8 0 x L, a = 0Ǻ, and the length L = 5 0 Ǻ = 5 cm. Fg... The complex bar wth a double helx structure (after MacKay and Aubry []) By extendng the lnear equvalence method (LEM) formulated by Toma [3], t has shown that the Coulomb vbraton s a partcular soluton of the nonlnear system of equatons that descrbes the system moton, for a nonlnear pendulum (Donescu et al. [4], Donescu [5], Munteanu and Donescu [6]). The general solutons are wrtten as a lnear superposton of Coulomb vbratons. In ths paper, we nvestgate the exstence of the Coulomb vbratons for a composte bar modeled as a Daves and Moon lattce for =0, llustrated n fg.. (Munteanu and Donescu [6], Daves and Moon [7]). In the fgure the masses are m, all the sprng constants are, and all the dampng coeffcents are c. The equatons of moton of the lattce model shown n fg.. are c x = (3 x x + x ) x + [ F( x+ x) F( x x )], (.) m m m

The dampng term x n the moton equaton comes about because the dampers between masses and the ones 3 attached between the masses and ground are taen to have dentcal coeffcents. The expresson for the force-dsplacement behavor of the buclng elements s the same as that used by Toda to model the nteracton forces n an atomc lattce γ F( x+ x) = [exp( b( x+ x)) ], (.3) b where γ s the element s lnearzed stffness, and b determnes the strength of the nonlnearty. For the atoms nteracton n a lattce of a sold the Morse nteracton force s vald n quantum mechancs of an electron moton, α beng a constant Fx ( + x) = F0[exp( α( x+ x)) exp( α ( x+ x))].

But, no exact solutons are found for elastcty problems governed by Morse force. For Toda nteracton force there are some exact explct solutons for the model. Wth and c set to zero, equatons (.) and (.3) reduce to a Toda lattce, and the functonal form of the nonlnear solton soluton s gven by mβ + = ln[ sech ( β ) + ]. (.5) x x t b γ Substtuton of (.5) nto (.) and (.3) wth and c set to zero, shows that t solves these equatons f we have λ β = snh. (.6) m If γ > 0 and b < 0, x+ () t x() t < 0 for all values of and t. Ths corresponds to the compressve atomc lattce waves studed by Toda. If γ > 0 and b > 0, then x+ () t x() t > 0, we have the tensle βa waves, whch propagate to the speed c =, where a s the dstance between masses. The speed of ths solton s dependent upon the ampltude. For the case of small dsplacement and zero dampng, (.) and (.3) reduce to the lnear conservatve system defned by γ x + x + ( x+ x + x ) = 0, =,,...,. (.7) m m

For large ntal condtons, the nonlneartes may lead to complex modal nteractons. Let us analyze the modal nteracton by usng the Toda nteractng equatons. We now that the - solton soluton of a nonlnear equaton can be regarded as a system of - nteractng soltons, each of whch becomes a sngle solton as t ±. When we have sngle soltons ntally apart n space they nteract wth each other and become apart wthout exchangng ther denttes (Donescu and Munteanu [8]).
