The theoretical development of the acceptance integral method to estimate the random vibration of structures subject to turbulent flow is critically reviewed and put onto a firm mathematical basis. Closed-form solutions for the joint acceptances for cross-flow-induced vibration of one-dimensional structures are derived for two special cases of spring-supported and simply supported beams. These are used to check results from a finite element formulation of the acceptance integrals for one-dimensional structures with arbitrary boundary conditions, and for arbitrary correlation lengths. Agreements between the finite element and closed-form solutions are excellent. [S0094-9930(00)02303-9]
