IUTAM Symposium on Nonlinear Stochastic Dynamics Proceedings of the IUTAM Symposium held in Monticello, Illinois, U.S.A., 26–30 August 2002

Non-linear stochastic systems are at the center of many engineering disciplines and progress in theoretical research had led to a better understanding of non-linear phenomena. This book provides information on new fundamental results and their applications which are beginning to appear across the en...
