A class of non-linear stochastic models is introduced. Phase transitions, critical points and the domain of attraction are discussed in detail for some concrete examples. For one of the examples the explicit expression for the domain of attraction and the rates of convergence are obtained.

The aim of the paper is to inform about main features of Non-linear Normal Modes (NNM) as a powerful tool for investigation of multi-degree of freedom (MDOF) dynamic systems. In particular, it is shown how this concept can be used to investigate forced resonances of non-linear symmetric systems including non-linear localization of vibrational energy. NNMs can provide a valuable tool for understanding essentially non-linear dynamic phenomena having no counterparts in linear theory and which do not enable analysis using linearized procedures. Discrete MDOF systems are considered in this study. A couple of possible approaches are outlined together with some demonstrations of numerical results.
