Abstract
The Hamiltonian approach is used to find an approximate amplitude-frequency relationship of a nonlinear oscillator with discontinuity. The solution procedure is simple while the result is of acceptable accuracy.
Keywords: Nonlinear Oscillator; Variational principle; Hamiltonian; amplitude-frequency relationship
