Abstract Research on the lateral vibrational stability of footbridges has attracted increasing attention in recent years. However, this stability contains a series of complex mechanisms, such as nonlinear vibration, random excitation, and random stability. The Lyapunov method is regarded as an effective tool for analyzing random vibrational stability; however, it is a qualitative method and can only provide a binary judgment for stability. This study proposes a new method, IEVIE–SA, which combines the energy method based on the comparison between the input energy and the variation of intrinsic energy (IEVIE) and the stochastic averaging (SA) method.… More >
