Maximum Value Statistics for Transient Response of Linear Structures

by A. Senthilnathan, Walter P. Moore & Associates Inc, United States,
L. D. Lutes, Walter P. Moore & Associates Inc, United States,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Probabilistic Methods in Civil Engineering

Abstract:

The mean and the variance are investigated for the maximum absolute value of a nonstationary process which represents the response buildup of a linear oscillator. The mean and variance are computed both by simulation and by approximate analytical techniques, with emphasis on a comparative evaluation of available techniques and proposed procedures.
