Nonlinear Stochastic Response of Rotational Shell Under the Action of Stationary Strong Wind Loads

Based on the theoretical analysis of nonlinear random response of structure, for the engineering practical problem, that is, the large deformation of industry cooling tower shell structure under the action of strong wind loads, the statistic perturbation method is also used to analyze some statistic characteristics of the nonlinear random response of rotational shell with geometric nonlinearity and stationary strong wind load considered. Through computation, some average values of nornal displacements and the nonlinear effect factor of the cooling tower shell are given.
