Abstract. In this paper, we consider the following damped vibration system
$\ddot{u}(t)+q(t)\dot{u}(t)-L(t)u(t)+\nabla W(t,u(t))=0,$ $\forall t\in\mathbb{R}$ , where $q\in C(\mathbb{R},\mathbb{R})$ , $L\in C(\mathbb{R},\mathbb{R}^{N^{2}})$ is a symmetric matrix valued function and $W(t,x)\in C^{1}(\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^{N}, \mathbb{R})$ . We prove the existence of infinitely many fast homoclinic solutions for the system when $Q(t)=\int^{t}_{0}q(s)ds\rightarrow+\infty$ as $\left|t\right|\rightarrow\infty$ , $L$ is neither coercive nor uniformly positive definite and $W(t,x)$ is superquadratic at infinity in the second variable but does not satisfy the well-known superquadratic growth conditions like the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz or the Fei’s conditions.
