First, the general formulation of the problems of stochastic dynamics coupled with the evolution of deterioration process is given. Then some specific degrading oscillatory systems under random excitation are analyzed with a special attention on the systems with fatigue-induced stiffness degradation. Both, the general discussion and the analysis of selected exemplary problems indicate how the reliability of deteriorating stochastic dynamical systems can be assessed.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Stochastic dynamics and reliability of degrading systems}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/111696/PDF-MASTER/(54-1)125.pdf}, keywords={stochastic dynamics, fatigue induced stiffness degradation, hysteretic systems, systems with varying/random structure}, }
