Journal ArticleDOI
Is My Model Good Enough? Best Practices for Verification and Validation of Musculoskeletal Models and Simulations of Movement
TL;DR: Practical guidelines for verification and validation of NMS models and simulations are established that researchers, clinicians, reviewers, and others can adopt to evaluate the accuracy and credibility of modeling studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptive Designs of Experiments for Accurate Approximation of a Target Region
TL;DR: An iterative strategy to build designs of experiments is proposed, which is based on an explicit trade-off between reduction of global uncertainty and exploration of the regions of interest, which shows that a substantial reduction of error can be achieved in the crucial regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptive explicit decision functions for probabilistic design and optimization using support vector machines
Anirban Basudhar,Samy Missoum +1 more
TL;DR: This article presents a methodology to generate explicit decision functions using support vector machines (SVM) and proposes an adaptive sampling scheme that updates the decision function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Validation of reliability computational models using Bayes networks
Sankaran Mahadevan,Ramesh Rebba +1 more
TL;DR: The methodology includes uncertainty in the experimental measurement, and the posterior and prior distributions of the model output are used to compute a validation metric based on Bayesian hypothesis testing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptive probability analysis using an enhanced hybrid mean value method
TL;DR: In this article, an adaptive probability analysis method is proposed to generate the probability distribution of the output performance function by identifying the propagation of input uncertainty to output uncertainty, which is based on an enhanced hybrid mean value (HMV+) analysis in the performance measure approach.

Design optimization approaches for the thermo-mechanical reliability of land grid array solder joints
TL;DR: In this paper, two design optimization approaches, the deterministic approach and the reliability-based approach, for the solder joint reliability of a 2/sup nd/-level land ball array (LGA) package under temperature cycling are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Credibility of Design Procedures
Jana Marková,Milan Holický +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a new concept of the credibility of theoretical models used to calculate the design value of basic variables is introduced, which enables comprehensive analysis of structural elements with respect to various limit states and provides valuable insights into the methodology of applied standards.
Dissertation
Decoupled approach to Multidisciplinary system analysis and Design under epistemic uncertainty
TL;DR: Thesis report presents a meta-analysis of Moment Estimation Techniques for System Response and their applications to Uncertainty Propagation, which shows clear trends in both the positive and negative aspects of uncertainty.
Journal ArticleDOI
Probabilistic and sensitivity analysis of Botlek Bridge structures
Juraj Králik,Peter Rosko +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors deal with the probabilistic and sensitivity analysis of the largest movable lift bridge of the world, which consists of six reinforced concrete pylons and two steel decks 4000 tons weight each connected through ropes with counterweights.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Some applications of reliability based design optimization in engineering structures
TL;DR: The SORA method has been chosen because it is easy to combine with commercial structural analysis and optimization codes due to the uncoupled nature of its formulation and it has been programmed in a MatLab code which manages the calls to structuralAnalysis and optimization software needed to solve the RBDO problem.
