Abstract: A single-degree-of-freedom nonlinear structural system under narrowband random excitation can exhibit very complex global and local response behaviors. In order to develop a stochastic method to analyze the nonlinear ...

Abstract: The response behavior of the single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) nonlinear structural system subjected to narrowband stochastic excitations studied in Part I is investigated via simulations to verify the stochastic system ...

Abstract: A semianalytical method is developed for the stochastic analysis of a nonlinear moored ocean structure subjected to narrow band random waves. The method is then used to investigate the probability ...
