Except for rare sporadic cases, exact stationary solutions for second order nonlinear systems under Gaussian white-noise excitations are known only for certain types of systems and only when the excitations are purely external (additive). Yet, in many engineering problems, random excitations may also be parametric (multiplicative). It is shown in this paper that the method of detailed balance developed by the physicists can be applied to obtain systematically the stationary solutions for a large class of nonlinear systems under either external random excitations or parametric random excitations, or both. Examples are given for those cases where solutions have been given previously in the literature as well as other cases where solutions are new. An unexpected result is revealed in one of the new solutions, namely, under suitable combination of the parametric and external excitations of Gaussian white noises, the response of a nonlinear system can be Gaussian.

A systematic procedure is developed to obtain the stationary probability density for the response of a nonlinear system under parametric and external excitations of Gaussian white noises. The procedure is devised by separating the circulatory portion of the probability flow from the noncirculatory flow, thus obtaining two sets of equations that must be satisfied by the probability potential. It is shown that these equations are identical to two of the conditions established previously under the assumption of detailed balance; therefore, one remaining condition for detailed balance is superfluous. Three examples are given for illustration, one of which is capable of exhibiting limit cycle and bifurcation behaviors, while another is selected to show that two different systems under two differents sets of excitations may result in the same probability distribution for their responses.

This paper deals with the stationary bilinear model with Hermite degree 2 in discrete time which is built up by the first- and second-order Hermite polynomial of a Gaussian white noise process. The exact spectrum and bispectrum is constructed in terms of the transfer functions of the model.

The total baroreflex arc [the open-loop system relating carotid sinus pressure (CSP) to arterial pressure (AP)] is known to exhibit nonlinear behaviors. However, few studies have quantitatively characterized its nonlinear dynamics. The aim of this study was to develop a nonlinear model of the sympathetically mediated total arc without assuming any model form. Normal rats were studied under anesthesia. The vagal and aortic depressor nerves were sectioned, the carotid sinus regions were isolated and attached to a servo-controlled piston pump, and the AP and sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) were measured. CSP was perturbed using a Gaussian white noise signal. A second-order Volterra model was developed by applying nonparametric identification to the measurements. The second-order kernel was mainly diagonal, but the diagonal differed in shape from the first-order kernel. Hence, a reduced second-order model was similarly developed comprising a linear dynamic system in parallel with a squaring system in cascade with a slower linear dynamic system. This “Uryson” model predicted AP changes 12% better ( P < 0.01) than a linear model in response to new Gaussian white noise CSP. The model also predicted nonlinear behaviors, including thresholding and mean responses to CSP changes about the mean. Models of the neural arc (the system relating CSP to SNA) and peripheral arc (the system relating SNA to AP) were likewise developed and tested. However, these models of subsystems of the total arc showed approximately linear behaviors. In conclusion, the validated nonlinear model of the total arc revealed that the system takes on an Uryson structure.

The prediction of the response of nonlinear systems subjected to stochastic parametric, narrowband and wideband or coloured external excitation is of importance in the field of structural and rotor dynamics. The transitional probability density function (pdf) for the random response of nonlinear systems under white or coloured noise excitation (delta-correlated) is governed by both the forward Fokker-Planck (FP) and backward Kolmogorov equations. This paper presents efficient numerical solution of the FP equation for the pdf of response for general nonlinear systems subjected to external white noise and combined sinusoidal and white noise excitation. The effect of intensity of white noise, frequency and amplitude of sinusoidal excitation and level of system nonlinearity on the non-Gaussian nature of response caused by the system nonlinearity are investigated. Stochastic behaviours like stability, jump, bifurcation are examined as the system parameters change. The finite element (FE) scheme is used to solve the FP equation and obtain the statistics of a two degree-of-freedom linear system representative of the vibration of gas turbine tip-shrouded bladed disk assembly subjected to Gaussian white noise excitation as an illustrative example.

An equivalent nonlinear system method is presented to obtain the approximate probability density for the stationary response of multi-degree-of-freedom nonlinear Hamiltonian systems to Gaussian white noise parametric and/or external excitations. The equivalent nonlinear systems are obtained on the basis of one of the following three criteria: least mean-squared deficiency of damping forces, dissipation energy balancing, and least mean-squared deficiency of dissipation energies. An example is given to illustrate the application and validity of the method and the differences in the three equivalence criteria.
