Abstract:
In this article, we apply the Lie symmetry analysis to a second-order nonlinear
ordinary differential equation, which is a Lienard-type equation with quadratic
friction. We find the infinitesimal generators under certain parametric conditions
and apply them to construct canonical variables.
Also we present some formulas for the first integral for this equation.
