    I assume the middle term is x-dot (it's not very clear, and it would mean you left the "dot" off the x^3 term in the second line). Please confirm that this is what you meant:



    That velocity cubed term is a puzzler. If that term was velocity squared I would say the system involves resistance from air or fluid flow, which is often modeled as being proportional to the square of velocity.
