The nonlinear resonance of cylindrical acoustic standing waves of an ideal gas contained between two coaxial cylinders is theoretically investigated by the method of multiple scales. The wave motion concerned is excited by a small-amplitude harmonic oscillation of the radius of the outer cylinder, and the formulation of the problem includes the wave phenomenon in a hollow cylinder without the inner one as a limiting case. The spherical standing wave in two concentric spheres is also studied in parallel. The resonance occurs if the driving frequency falls in a narrow band around the linear resonance frequency, and in the weakly nonlinear regime, no shock wave is formed in contrast to the plane wave resonance. A cubic nonlinear equation for complex wave amplitude can then be derived by the method of multiple scales. Using a first integral of the cubic nonlinear equation, we shall demonstrate that the resonant oscillation is accompanied by a periodic modulation of amplitude and phase when the dissipation effect due to viscosity and thermal conductivity is negligible. The period of the modulation varies as the minus two-thirds power of the acoustic Mach number defined at the outer cylinder or sphere and decreases with an increase in the radius ratio of the inner and outer cylinders or spheres. When the dissipation effect is small but not negligible, the modulation is slowly weakened and the resonant oscillation approaches a steady state oscillation, which corresponds to the steady solution examined in earlier works. ©2006 American Institute of Physic
