A giant magnetostrictive thin film (GMF) actuator designed as a simply supported beam under axial white noise excitation is studied. Firstly, a non-dimensional stochastic difference equation governing the motion is simplified by the modified stochastic averaging method. Subsequently, the stationary probability density function of amplitude and the joint probability density function of displacement and velocity were obtained respectively. Finally, the reliability was studied by the backward Kolmogorov (BK) equation to guarantee the safety of the actuator. Numerical simulations are carried out to verify the theoretical analysis.
