Abstract
In this paper with the use of conservation of average energy, a newmethod for computing the periodic solutions of strongly nonlinearautonomous systems with multi-degree-of-freedom is suggested. Thismethod cannot only decide the existence, but also give the approximateexpressions of the periodic solutions.
