Abstract: This paper is a development of ref. [1]. Consider the following random equation: Z(t)+2βZ(t)+ω₀²Z(t)=(a⁰+a¹Z(t))I(t)+c in which excitation I(t) and response Z(y) are both random processes, and it is proposed that they are mutually independent. Suppose that a(t) is a known function of time and I(t) is a stationary random process. In this paper, the spectral resolving form of the random equation stated above, the numerical solving method and the solutions in some special cases are considered.
