Aperiodic behaviour of a non-linear oscillator.The aperiodic behavior of the solution of the equation of motion derived previously (1966) when considering a model thermomechanical oscillator is examined. Periodic solutions of this equation are studied numerically and analytically. Conditions for the instability of the solutions are determined. This instability seems to be the cause of the observed aperiodicity.
