In this paper, a dynamic model of a coupled hyperbolic tangent nonlinear oscillator arising in a packaging system is proposed. Conditions for resonance are obtained by applying the variational iteration method‐II (VIM‐II), which should be avoided in the cushioning packaging design. Moreover, the comparison between the VIM‐II and numerical solutions indicates an excellent agreement.
