	abstract = {The multi-frequency excitation of a microbeam, resting on a nonlinear foundation, is investigated and the governing equation of motion of the microbeam system is developed. The viscoelastic-type foundation is considered by assuming nonlinear parameters for both Pasternak and Winkler coefficients. The well-known Galerkin approach is utilized to discretize the governing equation of motion and to obtain its nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The multiple time-scales method is employed to study the multi-frequency excitation of the microbeam. Furthermore, the resonant conditions due to the external excitation as well as the combination resonances for the first two modes are investigated. The influences of different parameters, namely the Pasternak and Winkler coefficients, the position of the applied force and the geometrical factors on the frequency response of the system are examined.},
