The dynamic characteristics and responses of stochastic truss structures under non-stationary random excitation are investigated using a new method called the random factor method (RFM). Using the RFM, the structural physical parameters and geometry can be considered as random variables. Based on th

β¦ Synopsis
This paper presents a new method for the dynamic response analysis of linear stochastic truss structures under stationary random excitation. Considering the randomness of the structural physical parameters and geometric dimensions, the computational expressions of the mean value, variance and variation coefficient of the mean square value of the structural displacement and stress response under the stationary random excitation are developed by means of the random variable's functional moment method and the algebra synthesis method from the expressions of structural stationary random response of the frequency domain. The influences of the randomness of the structural physical parameters and geometric dimensions on the randomness of the mean square value of the structural displacement and stress response are inspected by the engineering examples.
