Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Time-variant reliability analysis aims at estimating the probability that an engineering system successfully performs intended missions over a certain period of time under various sources of uncertainty. In order to perform the time-variant reliability analysis efficiently, this paper presents a high dimensional model representation (HDMR) model combined with an active learning strategy to estimate the failure probability of dynamic problem. Firstly, the HDMR meta-model is established in the augmented input space (random variables and time) based on Gaussian process regression technique. Then, a reliability analysis approach incorporating epistemic uncertainty is proposed, and a learning function is introduced to update the experimental design sequentially. Finally, the Monte Carlo simulation method is applied for time-variant failure probability assessment based on the well-developed HDMR meta-model. Two engineering applications are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method for time-variant reliability analysis.
