Clamp Effects in Fiber Testing
TL;DR: A probabilistic model for the tensile strength of brittle fibers is presented in this paper, where the relationship of fiber flaw structure to the statistical strength is disentangled and the relationship between the two is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Minimum Expected Cost Optimization
TL;DR: In this paper, a probabilistic optimum design approach with minimum expected cost as the design objective is presented, where the minimization of expected cost is shown to be equivalent to minimum weight with a probability of failure constraint.
