Abstract
The structural configuration obtained by deterministic topology optimization may represent a low reliability level and lead to a high failure rate. Therefore, it is necessary to take reliability into account for topology optimization. By integrating reliability analysis into topology optimization problems, a simple reliability-based topology optimization (RBTO) methodology for continuum structures is investigated in this article. The two-layer...
