Uncertainties play a dominant role in the design and optimization
of structures and infrastructures. In optimum design of structural
systems due to variations of the material, manufacturing
variations, variations of the external loads and modelling
uncertainty, the parameters of a structure, a structural system and
its environment are not given, fixed coefficients, but random
variables with a certain probability distribution. The increasing
necessity to solve complex problems in Structural Optimization,
Structural Reliability and Probabilistic Mechanics, requires the
development of new ideas, innovative methods and numerical tools
for providing accurate numerical solutions in affordable computing
times. This book presents the latest findings on structural
optimization considering uncertainties. It contains selected
contributions dealing with the use of probabilistic methods for the
optimal design of different types of structures and various
considerations of uncertainties. The first part is focused on
reliability-based design optimization and the second part on robust
design optimization. Comprising twenty-one, self-contained chapters
by prominent authors in the field, it forms a complete collection
of state-of-the-art theoretical advances and applications in the
fields of structural optimization, structural reliability, and
probabilistic computational mechanics. It is recommended to
researchers, engineers, and students in civil, mechanical, naval
and aerospace engineering and to professionals working on
complicated costs-effective design problems.
