A general symplectic method for the response analysis of infinitely periodic structures subjected to random excitations

A general symplectic method for the random response analysis of infinitely periodic structures subjected to stationary/non-stationary random excitations is developed using symplectic mathematics in conjunction with variable separation and the pseudo-excitation method (PEM). Starting from the equatio...
