Abstract
Abstract With the use of generalized harmonic analysis the problem of vibrating damped beams and plates under stochastic loading is solved. The resulting equations give the cross-correlation functions for displacements, stresses, moments, and so on, in terms of the cross-correlation function of external pressure. Mean square values of these functions are special cases of these results. Using a method due to Rice, we also calculate the probable number of times per unit time the random displacements or stresses will exceed a given value. The case of simply supported bars, cantilever bars, clamped circular plates, and simply supported rectangular plates are worked out in detail.
