This document analyzes a nonlinear system by finding equilibrium points through linearization of differential equations, determining stable and unstable nodes around each point, and finding a potential function for the unexcited system. It also produces a bifurcation diagram and uses MATLAB software to numerically solve the equation of motion to find the time period of the system.
