Random vibration of hysteretic systems under Poisson white noise excitations

Hysteresis widely exists in civil structures,and dissipates the mechanical energy of systems.Research on the random vibration of hysteretic systems,however,is still insufficient,particularly when the excitation is non-Gaussian.In this paper,the radial basis function(RBF)neural network(RBF-NN)method is adopted as a numerical method to investigate the random vibration of the Bouc-Wen hysteretic system under the Poisson white noise excitations.The solution to the reduced generalized Fokker-PlanckKolmogorov(GFPK)equation is expressed in terms of the RBF-NNs with the Gaussian activation functions,whose weights are determined by minimizing the loss function of the reduced GFPK equation residual and constraint associated with the normalization condition.A steel fiber reinforced ceramsite concrete(SFRCC)column loaded by the Poisson white noise is studied as an example to illustrate the solution process.The effects of several important parameters of both the system and the excitation on the stochastic response are evaluated,and the obtained results are compared with those obtained by the Monte Carlo simulations(MCSs).The numerical results show that the RBF-NN method can accurately predict the stationary response with a considerable high computational efficiency.

SELF-TUNING WEIGHTED MEASUREMENT FUSION WHITE NOISE DECONVOLUTION ESTIMATOR

For the multi-sensor linear discrete time-invariant stochastic systems with correlated measurement noises and unknown noise statistics,an on-line noise statistics estimator is obtained using the correlation method.Substituting it into the optimal weighted fusion steady-state white noise deconvolution estimator based on the Kalman filtering,a self-tuning weighted measurement fusion white noise deconvolution estimator is presented.By the Dynamic Error System Analysis(DESA) method,it proved that the self-tuning fusion white noise deconvolution estimator converges to the steady-state optimal fusion white noise deconvolution estimator in a realization.Therefore,it has the asymptotically global optimality.A simulation example for the tracking system with 3 sensors and the Bernoulli-Gaussian input white noise shows its effectiveness.

Dynamics of a prey-predator system under Poisson white noise excitation

The classical Lotka-Volterra （LV） model is a well-known mathematical model for prey-predator ecosystems. In the present paper, the pulse-type version of stochastic LV model, in which the effect of a random natural environment has been modeled as Poisson white noise, is in- vestigated by using the stochastic averaging method. The averaged generalized It6 stochastic differential equation and Fokkerlanck-Kolmogorov （FPK） equation are derived for prey-predator ecosystem driven by Poisson white noise. Approximate stationary solution for the averaged generalized FPK equation is obtained by using the perturbation method. The effect of prey self-competition parameter e2s on ecosystem behavior is evaluated. The analytical result is confirmed by corresponding Monte Carlo （MC） simulation.

Nonstationary probability densities of system response of strongly nonlinear single-degree-of-freedom system subject to modulated white noise excitation

The nonstationary probability densities of system response of a single-degree- of-freedom system with lightly nonlinear damping and strongly nonlinear stiffness subject to modulated white noise excitation are studied. Using the stochastic averaging method based on the generalized harmonic functions, the averaged Fokl^er-Planck-Kolmogorov equation governing the nonstationary probability density of the amplitude is derived. The solution of the equation is approximated by the series expansion in terms of a set of properly selected basis functions with time-dependent coefficients. According to the Galerkin method, the time-dependent coefficients can be solved from a set of first-order linear differential equations. Then, the semi-analytical formulae of the nonstationary probability density of the amplitude response as well as the nonstationary probability density of the state response and the statistic moments of the amplitude response can be obtained. A van der Pol-Duffing oscillator subject to modulated white noise is given as an example to illustrate the proposed procedures. The effects of the system parameters, such as the linear damping coefficient and the nonlinear stiffness coefficient, on the system response are discussed.

In this paper, the analysis method of stochastic response of piled offshore platform excited by stationary filtered white noise is presented. With this method, the strong ground motion is considered as three direction stationary filtered white noise process, the theoretic solutions of three special integration equations are derived with the residue theorem, and the expression of response nodal displacements and member forces of offshore platform excited by the stationary filtered white noise is put forward.

The Stochastic stability of a Logistic model with Poisson white noise

The stochastic stability of a logistic model subjected to the effect of a random natural environment, modeled as Poisson white noise process, is investigated. The properties of the stochastic response are discussed for calculating the Lyapunov exponent, which had proven to be the most useful diagnostic tool for the stability of dynamical systems. The generalised Itp differentiation formula is used to analyse the stochastic stability of the response. The results indicate that the stability of the response is related to the intensity and amplitude distribution of the environment noise and the growth rate of the species.

A new information fusion white noise deconvolution estimator

The white noise deconvolution or input white noise estimation problem has important applications in oil seismic exploration, communication and signal processing. By the modern time series analysis method, based on the autoregressive moving average （ARMA） innovation model, a new information fusion white noise deconvolution estimator is presented for the general multisensor systems with different local dynamic models and correlated noises. It can handle the input white noise fused filtering, prediction and smoothing problems, and it is applicable to systems with colored measurement noises. It is locally optimal, and is globally suboptimal. The accuracy of the fuser is higher than that of each local white noise estimator. In order to compute the optimal weights, the formula computing the local estimation error cross-covariances is given. A Monte Carlo simulation example for the system with Bernoulli-Gaussian input white noise shows the effectiveness and performances.

Two propositions are obtained. Finally, an example is given to illustrate the application of the results.

Fear of Death and Power of Innocence: A Study of Don DeLillo’s White Noise

Honored by Mark Osteen as the “The American Book of the Dead”, Don Delillo’s White Noise unveils the fear ofdeath resides in the mind of contemporary Americans and their struggles against the fear. Among these efforts is toseek comfort in Protagonist Jack’s youngest son, Wilder, who is the emblem of a primitive and innocent power thatis uncontaminated by science and technology in the chaotic world. Furthermore, this article further analyses andreveals the consoling power of Wilder’s innocence. Nonetheless, through the degradation from a solemn and scaredcrying to a pathetic and mundane crying, it also shows the brevity and vulnerability of the power, which proves that,instead of a permanent cure, this innocence can only serve as a sedative to ease the postmodern fear of death.

Finally, the isomorphism mapping method and compact embedding theorem are used to obtain the system. It is progressively compact, then we can prove the existence of ran-dom attractors.

AN EFFICIENT FINITE DIFFERENCE METHOD FOR STOCHASTIC LINEAR SECOND-ORDER BOUNDARY-VALUE PROBLEMS DRIVEN BY ADDITIVE WHITE NOISES

In this paper,we develop and analyze a finite difference method for linear second-order stochastic boundary-value problems(SBVPs)driven by additive white noises.First we regularize the noise by the Wong-Zakai approximation and introduce a sequence of linear second-order SBVPs.We prove that the solution of the SBVP with regularized noise converges to the solution of the original SBVP with convergence order O(h)in the meansquare sense.To obtain a numerical solution,we apply the finite difference method to the stochastic BVP whose noise is piecewise constant approximation of the original noise.The approximate SBVP with regularized noise is shown to have better regularity than the original problem,which facilitates the convergence proof for the proposed scheme.Convergence analysis is presented based on the standard finite difference method for deterministic problems.More specifically,we prove that the finite difference solution converges at O(h)in the mean-square sense,when the second-order accurate three-point formulas to approximate the first and second derivatives are used.Finally,we present several numerical examples to validate the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed scheme.

Spatial and temporal white noises under sublinear G-expectation

Under the framework of sublinear expectation,we introduce a new type of G-Gaussian random fields,which contains a type of spatial white noise as a special case.Based on this result,we also introduce a spatial-temporal G-white noise.Different from the case of linear expectation,in which the probability measure needs to be known,under the uncertainty of probability measures,spatial white noises are intrinsically different from temporal cases.

Slowing down critical transitions via Gaussian white noise and periodic force

Stochastic perturbations and periodic excitations are generally regarded as sources to induce critical transitions in complex systems. However, we find that they are also able to slow down an imminent critical transition. To illustrate this phenomenon, a periodically driven bistable eutrophication model with Gaussian white noise is introduced as a prototype class of real systems.The residence probability(RP) is presented to measure the possibility that the given system stays in the oligotrophic state versus Gaussian white noise and periodic force. Variations in the mean first passage time(MFPT) and the mean velocity(MV) of the first right-crossing process are also calculated respectively. We show that the frequency of the periodic force can increase the MFPT while reduce the MV under different control parameters. Nevertheless, the noise intensity or the amplitude may result in an increase of the RP only in the case of control parameters approaching the critical values. Furthermore, for an impending critical transition, an increase of the RP appears with the interaction between the amplitude and noise intensity or the combination of the noise intensity and frequency, while the interaction of the frequency and amplitude leads to an extension of the MFPT or a decrease of the MV. As a result, an increase of the RP and MFPT, and a decrease of the MVobtained from our results claim that it is possible to slow down an imminent critical transition via Gaussian white noise and periodic force.
