本文讨论了由界面分隔的两层介质在空间中随机波动的问题。介质受到面内应变场的影响,模拟表面基础的影响。界面空间波动的二阶矩特性被用来制定的问题。利用Karhunen-Loeve和多项式混沌展开将问题转化为计算上易于处理的形式,从而得到一个线性代数方程组来求解。这个问题的困难源于随机性的几何性质,导致刚度矩阵在随机性中是非线性的。这导致了一个非线性随机问题,其解决方案是通过依赖于多项式混沌表示的随机过程。
This paper addresses the problem of a medium with two layers separated by an interface randomly fluctuating in space. The medium is subjected to an in-plane strain field simulating the effect of a surface foundation. The second-moments characteristics of the interface spatial fluctuations are used to formulate the problem. The Karhunen-Loeve and the polynomial chaos expansions are utilized to transform the problem into a computationally tractable form, thus resulting in a system of linear algebraic equations to solve. The difficulty in this problem stems from the geometric nature of the randomness, resulting in a stiffness matrix that is nonlinear in the randomness. This leads to a nonlinear stochastic problem, the solution of which is accomplished by relying on the polynomial chaos representation of stochastic processes.
