This article presents a brief survey on some of the latest developments in the area of
reliability-based design optimization of structural systems under stochastic excitation. The …

Investigation of a stochastic system from a viewpoint of studying the randomness
propagation process in a physical system starts to play an important role in understanding …

Many high concrete face rockfill dams (CFRDs) have been constructed in earthquake-prone
areas in recent years, and it is essential to evaluate the seismic safety performance of these …

In Stochastic Dynamics of Structures, Li and Chen present a unified view of the theory and
techniques for stochastic dynamics analysis, prediction of reliability, and system control of …

Generally, the static and dynamic reliabilities of structures are addressed separately in the
