Probabilistic critical excitation for MDOF elastic plastic structures on compliant ground.

Earthquake ground motions and their effects on structural responses are very uncertain even with the present knowledge. It is therefore desirable to develop a robust structural design method taking into account these uncertainties. Critical excitation approaches are promising and a new random critic...
