The paper presents a formulation in the frequency domain for the viscoelastic material behaviour of structural elements. This approach is equally valid for deterministic forces, but also in the case of probabilistic descriptions of those forces. The method takes advantage of readily available experimental data and shows how to introduce them in e.g. finite element formulations.
