A Global Sensitivity Analysis Framework for Hybrid Simulation with Stochastic Substructures
Hybrid simulation is an experimental method used to investigate the dynamic response of a reference prototype structure by decomposing it to physically-tested and numerically-simulated substructures. The latter substructures interact with each other in a
