We consider the following nonlinear wave equation: $$ (1) \quad \left\{ \begin{array}{lc} \omega^2 u_{tt} -u_{xx} +\varepsilon f(x,u)=0 \ \hbox{in} \ (x,t)\in (0,\pi) \times \mathbb{R},\\ u(x,t)=u(x,t+2\pi). \end{array}\right. $$ We are interested in the case $\omega\in \mathbb{R} \setminus \mathbb{Q}$, $f(x,0)=f_s(x,0)=0$ and $f(x,s)$ has a superlinear growth at infinity. In this talk, we discuss the existence of nontrivial periodic solutions of (1) under Dirichlet boundary condition. We also study the existence of spatially non-constant periodic solutions of the orresponding free vibration problem.
