چکیده
I dedicate this thesis to God and my family. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, I would like to thank my advisor Dr. Seung-Kyum Choi for his support and guidance to me with his knowledge throughout my graduate studies and school experience. their time to read and provide their knowledge and expertise in the completion of my Master's thesis. Moreover, I would like to thank my family, especially my father, for their unconditional love, wishes, patience and faith without which I would not have made it this far. They have inculcated me with the virtues of hard work, dedication, perseverance and belief in God since my early days. I exist because of them. Finally I would like to thank my lab-mates, Recep Gorguluarslan, Thomas Stone, Mahmoud Alzahrani, and Sang-In Park for their help along the way and for their support.

Collaborative Reliability Analysis under the Framework of Multidisciplinary Systems Design
Traditional Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) generates deterministic optimal designs, which are frequently pushed to the limits of design constraint boundaries, leaving little or no room to accommodate uncertainties in system input, modeling, and simulation. As a result, the design solution obtained may be highly sensitive to the variations of system input which will lead to performa...

متن کاملReliable hub-and-spoke network design problems under uncertainty through multi-objective programming
HLP (hub location problem) tries to find locations of hub facilities and assignment of nodes to extended facilities. Hubs are facilities to collect, arrange, and distribute commodities in telecommunication networks, cargo delivery systems, etc. Hubs are very crucial and their inaccessibility impresses on network whole levels. In this paper, first, total reliability of the network is defined bas...
متن کاملReliability Assessment of Distribution Systems in Presence of Microgrids Considering Uncertainty in Generation and Load Demand
The microgrid concept provides attractive solutions for reliability enhancement of power distribution systems. Normally, microgrids contain renewable-energy-based Distributed Generation (DG) units, which their output power varies with different environmental conditions. In addition, load demand usually changes with factors such as hourly and seasonal customer activities. Hence, these issues hav...
متن کاملA New Multidisciplinary Design Optimization Method Accounting for Discrete and Continuous Variables under Aleatory and Epistemic Uncertainties
Various uncertainties are inevitable in complex engineered systems and must be carefully treated in design activities. Reliability-Based Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (RBMDO) has been receiving increasing attention in the past decades to facilitate designing fully coupled systems but also achieving a desired reliability considering uncertainty. In this paper, a new formulation of multid...
