N2 - This work explores the steady-state periodic transverse responses with their stabilities of axially accelerating viscoelastic strings. Longitudinally varying tension due to the axial acceleration is recognized in the modeling, while the tension was approximatively assumed to be longitudinally uniform in previous investigations. Exact internal resonances are highlighted in the analysis, while the resonances have been neglected in all available works. A governing equation of transverse nonlinear vibration is derived from the generalized Hamilton principle and the Kelvin viscoelastic model on the assumption that the string deformation is not infinitesimal, but still small. The axial speed is supposed to be a small simple harmonic fluctuation about the constant mean axial speed. The method of multiple scales is applied to solve the governing equation in the parametric resonances when the axial speed fluctuation frequency approaches the first three natural frequencies of the linear generating system based on 1-3 term truncations. The amplitude, the existence conditions, and the stability are determined, and the effects of the viscosity, the mean axial speed, the axial speed fluctuation amplitude, and the axial support rigidity on the amplitude and the existence are examined via the numerical examples. It is found that the 1-term, the 2-term, and the 3-term truncations yield the qualitatively same and the quantitatively close results in the case that there exist the exact internal resonances among the first three frequencies.
