Abstract:
A mathematical model of a Duffing type oscillator with a variable fractional derivative of the
Riemann-Liouville derivative is studied. Using the harmonic balance method, algorithms for constructing
amplitude-phase characteristics were found. The amplitude-frequency and phase-frequency
characteristics were built. The inverse dependence of the Q factor on the order of the fractional
derivative is shown. The Q-factor surfaces are constructed depending on the frequency and amplitude.
