Probabilistic nonparametric model of impedance matrices
Application to the seismic design of a structure
Keywords:
nonparametric model, impedance, probabilistic mechanics, uncertaintiesAbstract
Economic and legal pressures on the structural engineers force them to consider uncertainty in the domains interacting, through boundary impedances, with their design structure. A probabilistic model of this impedance is constructed around a mean hidden state variables model using a nonparametric method. This mean model is constructed using only deterministic tools. The methodology is applied to the design of a gas tank on a layered soil.
