Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
In this paper, two special formulations to carry out a reliability-based design optimization of elastoplastic mechanical structures are introduced. The first approach is based on a well-known two-level method where the first level involves the optimization for the design parameters whereas the evaluation of the probabilistic constraints is carried out in a sub-optimization level. Because the evaluation of the probabilistic constraints in a sub-optimization level causes non-convergence behavior for some problems as indicated in the literature, an alternative formulation based on one-level is developed considering the optimality conditions of the beta-computation by which the probabilistic constraint appears in the first level reliability-based design optimization formulation. In both approaches, an explicit parameter optimization problem is proposed for the computation of a design point z*(x) for elastoplastic structures. Three examples in this paper demonstrate that the one-level reliability-based design optimization formulation is superior in terms of convergence to an optimal design than the two-level reliability-based design optimization formulation.
