A Monte Carlo based method for system reliability
The focus of this paper is the development of a Monte Carlo based method for estimating the reliability of structural systems. The use of Monte Carlo methods for system reliability analysis has several attractive features, the most important being that the failure criterion is usually relatively easy to check almost irrespective of the complexity of the system. The flip side of such methods is ...
متن کاملComparison of Monte Carlo Algorithms for Obtaining Geometric Convergence for Model Transport Problems
Two quite diierent methods for accelerating the convergence of global Monte Carlo solutions of continuous transport problems have been developed recently in Claremont. One of these is based on a sequential form of correlated sampling , rst proposed for matrix problems by Haltonn1]. The second method makes use of importance sampling transformations applied adaptivelyy2]. These two methods are co...
متن کامل33 . Monte Carlo Techniques
Monte Carlo techniques are often the only practical way to evaluate difficult integrals or to sample random variables governed by complicated probability density functions. Here we describe an assortment of methods for sampling some commonly occurring probability density functions. Most Monte Carlo sampling or integration techniques assume a " random number generator, " which generates uniform ...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulation of Computer System Availability/Reliability Models
In recent years, there has been an increased interest in evaluating the availability and reliability of computer systems. For this purpose, we have developed a state of the art modeling package called SAVE (System Availability Estimator). This package has refined numerical matrix methods for computing the dependability measures of interest. These methods do, however, have their limitations sinc...
متن کاملComparison of Monte Carlo and Fuzzy Techniques in Uncertainty Modelling
The standard reference in uncertainty modelling is the “Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM)”. GUM groups the occurring uncertain quantities into “Type A” and “Type B”. Uncertainties of “Type A” are determined with the classical statistical methods, while “Type B” is subject to other uncertainties like experience with and knowledge about an instrument. Both types of uncer...
