Abstract: A new computationally efficient error adaptive first-order eigen-perturbation technique for real-time modal identification of linear vibrating systems is proposed. The existence of error terms in the approximation of the ...

Abstract: AbstractTerzaghi’s analytical solution for one-dimensional (1D) consolidation is primarily developed for thin samples and thus provides reliable results within restricted domain sizes. However, extending its applicability ...

Abstract: This special section of the ASCE-ASME Journal of Risk and Uncertainty in Engineering Systems: Part B comprises seven papers related to recent advances and emerging approaches on the risk and uncertainties that are associated ...

Abstract: Safety and reliability of large critical infrastructure such as long-span bridges, high-rise buildings, nuclear power plants, high-voltage transmission towers, rotating machinery, and so on, are important for a modern ...

Abstract: AbstractThis paper presents a novel framework for solving the plane strain two-dimensional (2D) consolidation problem of saturated soils using the random Feynman–Kac (RF–K) formulation. The proposed framework addresses the ...

Abstract: Eigen-decomposition remains one of the most invaluable tools for signal processing algorithms. Although traditional algorithms based on QR decomposition, Jacobi rotations and block Lanczos tridiagonalization have been ...

Abstract: Vegetation induces heterogeneity in the soil porous structure and, hence, relative permeability (kr) as well. The main objective of this study is to address the uncertainties associated with relative permeability using ...
