Stochastic Responses of Multi-Degree-of-Freedom Uncertain Hysteretic Systems

On the basis of the Bouc-Wen hysteretic model, the effective numerical method for the response of nonlinear multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) stochastic hysteretic systems is presented using second moment method. Using this method, the mean values, variances and covariances are computed. The Monte Carl...
