Abstract: An equivalent nonlinear system method is proposed to obtain the approximate probability density for the stationary response of multi-degree-of-freedom integrable Hamiltonian systems with linear and ...

Abstract: Linear dynamics of Euler–Bernoulli beams with nonviscous nonlocal damping is considered. It is assumed that the damping force at a given point in the beam depends on the past history of ...

Abstract: An equivalent nonlinear system method is presented to obtain the approximate probability density for the stationary response of multi-degree-of-freedom nonlinear Hamiltonian systems to Gaussian white ...

Abstract: When measured data contain damage events of the structure, it is important to extract the information of damage as much as possible from the data. In this paper, two methods are proposed for such a purpose. The first method, ...

Abstract: This work examines the fracture behavior of ferritic steel welds in the transition temperature regime, where failure can occur either by ductile tearing or cleavage fracture. A computational and ...
