AbstractRandom vibrations occur in many engineering systems including buildings subject to earthquake excitation, vehicles traveling on a rough road and off-shore platform in random waves. Analysis of random vibrations for linear systems has been well studied. For nonlinear systems, particularly for multi-degree-of-freedom systems, however, there are still many challenges including analyzing the probability distribution of transient responses of the system. Monte Carlo simulation was considered the only viable method for this task. In this paper, We propose a method to construct semi-analytical transient solutions of the probability distribution of transient responses of nonlinear systems by using the radial basis function neural networks. The activation functions consist of normalized Gaussian probability density functions. Two examples are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed solution method. The transient probability distributions and response moments of these examples are presented, which have not been reported in the literature before.
