Abstract
An approach to the elastostatic study of random media was proposed by Burczinsky [1]. The method discussed in this paper is inspired by Burczinsky’s formulation, but is characterized by the following differences, extensions and advantages:
-
1.
the new approach is able to solve elastostatic as well as elastodynamic problems;
-
2.
a direct computation of the cell contributions avoid any sort of numerical iteration;
-
3.
the probabilistic description of the response is provided in terms of probability distribution function thanks to the coupling with a response surface scheme.
