Robust reliability-based optimization with a moment method for hydraulic pump sealing design
Reliability-based design (RBD) is widely applied to meet the reliability requirement at a reduced cost. Current RBD methods require complete distributions of basic random variables, but in real applications, s...

Reliability analysis for k-out-of-n systems with shared load and dependent components
Many structural systems require a minimal number of components to be operational, and predicting the reliability of such systems is a challenge because surviving components share the original system workload w...

An improved high-moment method for reliability analysis
For reliability analysis, there may be several potential distributions for a random variable due to limited samples available. For the same reason, a distribution may not be available. Simply assuming a normal...
