A subset multicanonical Monte Carlo method for simulating rare failure events
, 2016 Estimating failure probabilities of engineering systems is an important problem in many engineering fields. In this work we consider such problems where the failure probability is extremely small (e.g $\leq10^{-10}$).

Failure Probability Estimation of Long Pipeline
, 2008 It is well known that, for the majority of pressurized pipelines, both the load and the resistance parameters show evident uncertainty, and a probabilistic approach should be applied to assess their behaviors. Concerning reliability estimation of passive components such as pressure vessel and pipeline, there are two kinds of approaches – direct ...

Seismic fragility analysis of two-story and three-span metro station structures based on IDA method
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2020 Based on the non-linear soil-structure interaction model for a two-storey and three-span metro station in a typical underground engineering site, an IDA (incremental dynamic analysis)-based structural seismic fragility analysis method is introduced for ...

Gaussian process surrogates for failure detection: a Bayesian experimental design approach
, 2015 An important task of uncertainty quantification is to identify {the probability of} undesired events, in particular, system failures, caused by various sources of uncertainties.

Minimum-error discrimination between mixed quantum states
, 2007 We derive a general lower bound on the minimum-error probability for {\it ambiguous discrimination} between arbitrary $m$ mixed quantum states with given prior probabilities. When $m=2$, this bound is precisely the well-known Helstrom limit.
