On monotonic solutions of systems of nonlinear second order differential equations Original Research Article

Bounded, monotonic, and asymptotic properties of solutions for a class of second order nonlinear differential equations are discussed. Some necessary and sufficient conditions for boundedness of all solutions are established. Moreover, all solutions are classified into four disjoint subsets which are characterized in terms of the convergence and divergence of several integrals. The obtained results extend and improve many known results of various authors.
