Pseudo-Simulation Method for Stochastic Problems

by B. A. Zeldin, Rice Univ, Houston, United States,
P. D. Spanos, Rice Univ, Houston, United States,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Probabilistic Mechanics and Structural and Geotechnical Reliability

Abstract:

A new numerical method for problems of stochastic mechanics and other areas involving a small number of random parameters is presented. It is analogous to the Monte-Carlo simulation method and quite more efficient. As an example, the eigenvalue problem of a clamped-clamped beam with random rigidity is considered.
