Abstract: Eulerian equations for the vertical flux and momentum of suspended particles in dilute sediment-laden open-channel flow in equilibrium have been derived using the two-fluid approach. Reynolds averaging has been applied in ...

Abstract: This work provides a Bayesian reinterpretation of model falsification. We show that model falsification can be viewed as an approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) approach when hypotheses (models) are sampled from a prior. ...

Abstract: In previous studies by the authors, a substructure identification method for shear structures was proposed to identify all structural story stiffness and damping parameters from top to bottom inductively. In the method ...

Abstract: Substructure identification is a structural health monitoring technique that identifies a reduced-order model of structural behavior using local vibration measurements. The authors’ prior research on this inherently ...

Abstract: The time evolution of the parameter sensitivity of a nonlinear dynamical system is essential to its successful design, control, and identification. For an important class of systems, the governing equations of motion can ...

Abstract: The deterministic frequency response analysis and the stationary random vibration of large, linear structural models are often computationally intensive tasks. The computational expense is only exacerbated when stiffness ...
