... on a statistical linearization scheme involving an equivalent system of augmented dimension. First, relying on a transformation scheme, the fractional derivative term is represented by a set of coupled linear ordinary differential equations. Next, the evolution of the system response statistics is captured...

...Fan Kong; Pol D. Spanos A statistical linearization approach is proposed for determining the response of the single-degree-of-freedom of the classical Bouc–Wen hysteretic system subjected to excitation both with harmonic and stochastic components. The method is based on representing the system...

...Pol D. Spanos; Ying Zhang; Fan Kong A formulation of statistical linearization for multi-degree-of-freedom (M-D-O-F) systems subject to combined mono-frequency periodic and stochastic excitations is presented. The proposed technique is based on coupling the statistical linearization...
