DOI: 10.1016/j.engstruct.2019.109513
Abstract: Abstract This paper describes the procedure developed to compare the dynamic behavior of a structure due to an impact load. The comparison procedure is especially useful for controlling the impact level and repeatability during testing,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.99.053303
Abstract: We introduce a variant of the Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm to address large-deviation statistics in stochastic hydrodynamics. Based on the path-integral approach to stochastic (partial) differential equations, our HMC algorithm samples space-time histories of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1142/s0219455421501868
Abstract: This study presents a new approach for obtaining a set of tri-directional time histories compatible with target design spectra by modifying real recorded earthquake ground motions. The influence matrix method (IMM) based on eigenfunction expansion… read more here.
