The deterministic power-spectral-density-method for nonlinear systems

The Deterministic Power-Spectral-Density method can be derived from the Design Envelope Analysis of the continuous P.S.D.-method. It provides a method to determine a deterministic function that gives a maximum response equal to the P.S.D.-design load for linear systems. The P.S.D.-design load is undefined for nonlinear systems. In this report a ...

The deterministic power-spectral-density-method for linear systems

The Deterministic Power-Spectral-Density-method has been derived directly from the continuous P.S.D.-method. It can be regarded as a "translation" from the frequency domain to the space or time domain. The critical gust profile, giving maximum response, is obtained directly. The D.P.S.D.-method gives the same results as the continuous P.S.D.-...
