Stochastic responses of Duffing-Van der Pol vibro-impact system under additive and multiplicative random excitations

The paper is devoted to an averaging approach to study the responses of Duffing-Van der Pol vibro-impact system excited by additive and multiplicative Gaussian noises. The response probability density functions (PDFs) are formulated analytically by the stochastic averaging method. Meanwhile, the results are validated numerically. In addition, stochastic bifurcations are also explored.
