Antioptimization of earthquake exitation and response [PDF]
Mathematical Problems in Engineering, 1997 The paper presents a novel approach to predict the response of earthquake‐excited structures. The earthquake excitation is expanded in terms of series of deterministic functions. The coefficients of the series are represented as a point in N‐dimensional space.
