Study of the nonlinear longitudinal dynamics of a stochastic system

This paper deals with the theoretical study of how discrete elements attached to a continuous stochastic systems can affect their dynamical behavior. For this, it is studied the nonlinear longitudinal dynamics of an elastic bar, attached to springs and a lumped mass, with a random elastic modulus a...
