Abstract: As a kind of imprecise probabilistic model, probability-box (P-box) model can deal with both aleatory and epistemic uncertainties in parameters effectively. The P-box can generally be categorized into two classes, namely, ...

Abstract: The dynamic characteristics of a bubble initially very close to a rigid wall, or with a very narrow gap, are different from those of a bubble away from the wall. Especially at the contraction stage, a highspeed jet pointing ...

Abstract: This paper proposed a vinecopulabased structural reliability analysis method which is an effective approach for performing a reliability analysis on complex multidimensional correlation problems. A joint probability ...

Abstract: In this paper, four convex models (interval, parallelepiped, ellipsoidal, and superellipsoidal analyses) are introduced to describe the available data on uncertainty parameters for the engine’s crankshaft. The paper first ...
