Abstract: |
A concept of threshold factor is introduced based on the theory of structural reliability in this study.Its physical meaning is the magnitude of the threshold that must be adjusted so that the current optimal solution can satisfy the reliability constraints.The threshold factor approaches 1 for the active constraint with the progress of iterations,which can shift the most possible failure point to the limit state surface that satisfies the reliability constraints,and thus the optimization efficiency is improved.In the proposed method, the design variables can be random variables or non-random variables,and the decomposition method of design variables is used to solve the optimization model when design variables are random variables.Numerical results indicate that the proposed method is not sensitive to the decomposition method,satisfactory results can be obtained for both active and inactive constraints,and the computational efficiency of the proposed method is higher than that of the classical method. |
