the problem of crack identification in continuous beam like structures is considered. the cracks’ locations and their depths are identified by employing experimental modal test results performed on the structure. the cracks are modeled using generic elements to include the coupling effects between shear forces and bending moments at the crack section. in the identification procedure eigen- sens...

In order to deal with a system with both randomness and uncertainty, chance theory has been built, and uncertain random variable has been proposed as a generalization of random variable and uncertain variable. Correspondingly, as a generalization of both stochastic process and uncertain process, this paper will propose an uncertain random process. In addition, some special types of uncertain ra...

The concept of fuzzy random variable has been applied in several papers to model the present value of life insurance liabilities. It allows the fuzzy uncertainty of the interest rate and the probabilistic behaviour of mortality to be used throughout the valuation process without any loss of information. Using this framework, and considering a triangular interest rate, this paper develops closed...
