Abstract: In this work, we develop a filter-based sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm for solving reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) problems with highly nonlinear constraints. The ...

Abstract: Design optimization problems under random uncertainties are commonly formulated with constraints in probabilistic forms. This formulation, also referred to as reliability-based design optimization ...

Abstract: In this work, the presence of equality constraints in reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) problems is studied. Relaxation of soft equality constraints in RBDO and its challenges are ...

Abstract: Probabilistic design optimization addresses the presence of uncertainty in design problems. Extensive studies on reliability-based design optimization, i.e., problems with random variables and ...

Abstract: Optimal design problems with probabilistic constraints, often referred to as reliability-based design optimization problems, have been the subject of extensive recent studies. Solution methods to ...

Abstract: In this research, we investigate design optimization under uncertainties for problems with two objectives. Reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) that considers uncertainties as random variables ...
