Abstract: Complex mechanical (e.g., multibody) systems with different types of constraints are generally performed through analytical dynamics methods. In some cases, however, it is possible that the (augmented) mass and/or ...

Abstract: In the insurance industry, the actuarial team experiences significant challenges for pricing a competitive but also fair premium and keeping an accurate level of reserve, which leads inevitably to numerous adjustments over ...

Abstract: A framework is developed for determining the stochastic response of linear multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) structural systems with singular matrices. This system modeling can arise when using more than the minimum number ...

Abstract: A generalized statistical linearization technique is developed for determining approximately the stochastic response of nonlinear dynamic systems with singular matrices. This system modeling can arise when a greater than ...

Abstract: A framework is developed for determining the stochastic response of linear multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) structural systems with singular matrices. This system modeling can arise when using more than the minimum number ...

Abstract: An asymptotic approximation methodology for solving standard random eigenvalue problems is generalized herein to account for structural systems with singular random parameter matrices. In this regard, resorting to the ...
