Abstract: By the generalized Riccati transformation and the integral averaging technique, some sufficient conditions of oscillation of the solutions for second order nonlinear differential equations with damping were discussed.Some sufficient oscillation criteria for previous equations were built up.Some oscillation criteria have been expanded and strengthened in some other known results.

Key words: oscillation, Riccati transformation, integral averaging technique, second order nonlinear differential equation with damping
