Reliability-Based Topology Optimization with Analytic Sensitivities
It is a common practice when designing a system to apply safety factors to the critical failure load or event. These safety factors provide a buffer against failure due to the random or un-modeled behavior, which may lead the system to exceed these limits. However these safety factors are not direct...
