  2. 1. An Integration-Reduction Scheme for Simulation of Large Systems with Local Nonlinearity and Uncertainty - Application to moving load problems in railway mechanics

    Author : Sadegh Rahrovani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Monte-Carlo simulations; time-integration; moving load problems; reliability analysis; exponential integrator; symplectic integrator; modal dominancy analysis;

    Abstract : The focus of this research is mainly on computational efficiency, as future work is planned for reliability analysis that will be combined with design optimisation. Both these fields are known to be notoriously computationally demanding. READ MORE

    Abstract : System identification of structures based on measured response data can play a key role in improving reliability based structural designs. However, the experimental limitations of in situ tests and uncertainties of required model complexity together with the inverse nature of system identification give rise to a number of challenging issues.
