Abstract:
      In this paper,the uncertain parameters of structures are expressed by non\|probabilistic interval variables. Based on interval arithmetic, a non\|probabilistic measure and analysis methodology for structural reliability computpation is presented. The measure index of the non\|probabilistic reliability developed here has a clear meaning in physics and geometry. The rationality and feasibility of the proposed theory is explained. Examples of practical application are given.
