Structural reliability and availability analysis through simulation

In this paper, some potential applications of simulation in structural reliability and availability are presented. Unlike the analytical methods, where assumptions that simplify complex analysis often need to be made, simulation methods can model the structure reliability without simplifying the pro...

Unlike the analytical methods, where assumptions that simplify complex analysis often need to be made, simulation methods can model the structure reliability without simplifying the problem. We propose the use of statistical distributions and techniques –such as survival analysis– to model component-level reliability.
