Algorithms for Reliability-Based Optimal Design [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
We present a new formulation for a class of structural optimization problems with reliability constraints, which makes it possible to use a new outer approximations algorithm for their solution. Our numerical results support the viability of our approach.
