Estalishing a nonlinear optimization method for structural reliability analysis [PDF]
مهندسی عمران شریف, 2023 The Hasofer-Lind and Rackwitz-Fiessler (HLRF) algorithm, which is based on the first-order reliability method (FORM), is widely used to estimate failure probability, reliability index, and design point in structural reliability analysis.

St. Petersburg Paradox and Failure Probability [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2020 The St. Petersburg paradox provides a simple paradigm for systems that show sensitivity to rare events. Here, we demonstrate a physical realization of this paradox using tensile fracture, experimentally verifying for six decades of spatial and temporal data and two different materials that the fracture force depends logarithmically on the length of the

Depression mediates physical activity readiness and physical activity in patients with heart failure
ESC Heart Failure, 2021 Aims Although physical activity (PA) and exercise are essential for patients with heart failure (HF), adherence to the recommended guidelines is low. Not much is known about the mediating effect of HF patients' mental state with their readiness for PA ...

Failure Probability Under Parameter Uncertainty [PDF]
Risk Analysis, 2010 In many problems of risk analysis, failure is equivalent to the event of a random risk factor exceeding a given threshold. Failure probabilities can be controlled if a decisionmaker is able to set the threshold at an appropriate level. This abstract situation applies, for example, to environmental risks with infrastructure controls; to supply chain ...
