Uncertainty Quantification of Microstructures: A Perspective on Forward and Inverse Problems for Mechanical Properties of Aerospace Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 2, January 2025.
Uncertainty quantification (UQ) of aerospace microstructures: state‐of‐the‐art studies on UQ of microstructures in aerospace materials are examined. The forward problem of uncertainty propagation in process–structure and structure–property relationships is investigated. Additionally, the inverse UQ problem, referred to as “design under uncertainty,” is

An Efficient Approach to Reliability-based Topology Optimization for Continua under Material Uncertainty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This contribution presents a computationally efficient method for reliability-based topology optimization for continuum domains under material properties uncertainty. Material Young’s modulus is assumed to be lognormally distributed and correlated within

Likelihood smoothing using gravitational wave surrogate models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Likelihood surfaces in the parameter space of gravitational wave signals can contain many secondary maxima, which can prevent search algorithms from finding the global peak and correctly mapping the distribution.

Experiences on structural optimization under uncertainty in aerospace components [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
[Abstract:] Nondeterministic optimization methods have been studied in depth from an academy and industrial point of view. The main drawback when implementing probabilistic optimization methods to complex structures is the computational cost.

Reliability-based Topology Optimization of Trusses with Stochastic Stiffness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A new method is proposed for reliability-based topology optimization of truss structures with random geometric imperfections and material variability. Such imperfections and variability, which may result from manufacturing processes, are assumed to be ...

Measuring Aggregate Human Capital [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we construct a set of human capital indexes for the states of the United States for each Census year starting in 1940. In order to do so, we propose a new methodology for the construction of index numbers in panel data sets.
