Robust structural design
Up one levelMethods for robust structural design under uncertainty are described.
-
Robustness investigations
- Robustness and sensitivity analysis of structures with respect to uncertainty of design parameters.
-
Robust design with the aid of cluster algorithms (Fuzzy Cluster Design)
- This concept for uncertain structural design permits to design a structure on the basis of an arbitrary nonlinear structural analysis and additionally takes account of uncertainty. It makes use of fuzzy analysis and fuzzy safety assessment. The algorithm of fuzzy cluster design is a capable tool for the determination of permissible structural design parameters and for fuzzy result assessment.
