Abstract: Analysis of a structure is a crucial procedure to ensure its reliable design and performance. These analytical procedures are generally performed deterministically. However, the input parameters defining the material and ...

Abstract: Concrete-faced rockfill dams (CFRDs) are commonly built around the world. As energy demands soar and construction methods evolve, the interest in the construction of CFRDs with larger heights has increased tremendously. ...

Abstract: Frequency analysis of a structural system with bounded uncertainty is presented. An interval (set-theoretic) formulation is used to quantify the uncertainty present in the structure’s parameters such as material properties. ...
