directional simulation, among techniques for reliability analysis of engineering structures, is well known. in this context, directional simulation in load space, because of the considerable advantages of lower dimension of working space, is of considerable interest. as is expected due to structural resistance variability, the location of the relevant limit state(s) is no longer constant and mu...

Uncertainties in structural parameters and in the excitation, and consequently in the response, obviously affect the structural reliability considerably. In this work, recent developments in the reliability analysis for the treatment of uncertain linear structures subjected to dynamic loading are presented. Although any reliability problem could be solved in principle by Direct Monte Carlo simu...

the aim ofstudy was to explain the role of resilience on subjective well-being and their relationship with self-efficacy at nursing care assistants of the kahrizak elderly home. the research method was descriptive-correlative and analysis method of structural equation modeling. statistical population consisted of all care assistants of kahrizak nursing home has formed to number of 175 of which ...
