This paper deals with the response of single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) strongly nonlinear oscillator with lightly fractional derivative damping to external and (or) parametric real noise excitations. First, the state vector of the displacement and the velocity is approximated by one-dimensional time-homogeneous diffusive Markov process of amplitude through using the stochastic averaging method. Then, the stationary probability density of amplitude is obtained by solving the Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov (FPK) equation associated with the averaged Itô equation of amplitude, in which the Fourier series expansions are used to obtain the explicit expressions of the drift and diffusion coefficients. Finally, the response of a Duffing oscillator with lightly fractional derivative damping under external and parametric real noise excitations is evaluated by using the proposed procedure and compared with that from the Monte Carlo simulation of original system.
