Abstract
First-order approximate symmetries of weaklynonlinear, damped-driven oscillators have been determined.First-order approximate first integrals have been obtained byemploying an approximate version of Noether's theorem for the conservativecase. Furthermore, approximate first integrals of the damped case have been obtained based on the first integrals of the conservative case.Approximate first integrals enabled us to identify three types of genericbifurcations. Analytical results have been verified by numerical experiments.
