AN ADAPTIVE IMPORTANCE SAMPLING-BASED ALGORITHM USING THE FIRST-ORDER METHOD FOR STRUCTURAL RELIABILITY
Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is a useful tool for computation of probability of failure in reliability analysis. However, the large number of samples, often required for acceptable accuracy, makes it time-consuming. Importance sampling is a method on the basis of MCS which has been proposed to reduce the computational time of MCS. In this paper, a new adaptive importance sampling-based algorith...
متن کاملMeta-model-based importance sampling for reliability sensitivity analysis
Reliability sensitivity analysis aims at studying the influence of the parameters in the probabilistic model onto the probability of failure of a given system. Such an influence may either be quantified on a given range of values of the parameters of interest using a parametric analysis, or only locally by means of its partial derivatives. This paper is concerned with the latter approach when t...
متن کاملENHANCING WEIGHTED UNIFORM SIMULATION FOR STRUCTURAL RELIABILITY ANALYSIS
Weighted Uniform Simulation (WUS) is recently presented as one of the efficient simulation methods to obtain structural failure probability and most probable point (MPP). This method requires initial assumptions of failure probability to obtain results. Besides, it has the problem of variation in results when it conducted with few samples. In the present study three strategies have been present...
متن کاملOn multinormal integrals by Importance Sampling for parallel system reliability
The ability to compute multinormal integrals to any required accuracy is a key issue for an efficient computation of failure probabilities, particular important in context with system reliability analysis. Hence in this paper, an accurate Importance Sampling procedure to compute multinormal integrals in high dimensions is presented. The novel method allows to sample exclusively in the failure d...
متن کاملMetamodel Usage Analysis for Identifying Metamodel Improvements
Modeling languages raise the abstraction level at which software is built by providing a set of constructs tailored to the needs of their users. Metamodels define their constructs and thereby reflect the expectations of the language developers about the use of the language. In practice, language users often do not use the constructs provided by a metamodel as expected by language developers. In...
