Reliability-based design optimization of a concrete dam [PDF]
: Performance and safety of geotechnical structures are affected by uncertainties. Yet, the design of dams is nowadays still made using deterministic methods and design codes.

A Review on Local Failure Probability Sensitivity Analysis
When assessing the reliability of a system, a mathematical model is often defined to replicate the system’s behavior. The inputs of the system are then gathered into two categories, random inputs and deterministic inputs.

Reliability-Based Structural Optimization
In designing new type of structures, it is very difficult to evaluate the safety factors due to lack of previous design data and operational experiences. To solve the above mentioned problem, much attention is being focussed on rational reliability-based design approaches.This paper deals with Weight-Optimal Reliability-Based Design (WORBD) of ...

Reliability-Based Structural Optimization Accounting for Manufacturing and Material Quality
The reliability-based optimization problem in which the structural material and manufacturing quality is assumed to be uncertain is considered. Moreover, the quality cost is appropriately taken into consideration in the formula determining the total cost

Soft Error-Aware Design Optimization of Low Power and Time-Constrained Embedded Systems [PDF]
In this paper, we present the first study that examines the impact of application task mapping on the reliability of multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSoC) in the presence of single-event upsets (SEUs).

Distant Relative Genetic Algorithm–Based Structural Reliability Optimization
In this study, safety margin explicit equation has been established using random variables (i.e., the engineering conditions, structure parameters, structural strength, and external load), and the genetic algorithm (GA)–based structural reliability ...
