摘要：
In conjunction with the formulation of random functions, a family of renewed spectral representation schemes is proposed. The selected random function serves as a random constraint correlating the random variables included in the spectral representation schemes. The objective stochastic process can thus be completely represented by a dimension-reduced spectral model with just few elementary random variables, through defining the high-dimensional random variables of conventional spectral representation schemes (usually hundreds of random variables) into the low-dimensional orthogonal random functions. To highlight the advantages of this scheme, orthogonal trigonometric functions with one and two random variables are constructed. Representative-point set of the dimension-reduced spectral model is derived by employing the probability-space partition techniques. The complete set with assigned probabilities of points gains a low-number-sample stochastic process. For illustrative purposes, the stochastic modeling of seismic acceleration processes is proceeded, of which the stationary and non-stationary cases are investigated. It is shown that the spectral acceleration of simulated processes matches well with the target spectrum. Stochastic seismic response analysis, moreover, and reliability assessment of a framed structure with Bouc-Wen behaviors are carried out using the probability density evolution method. Numerical results reveal the applicability and efficiency of the proposed simulation technique.
