Review of options for structural design sensitivity analysis. Part 1: Linear systems
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper reviews options for structural design sensitivity analysis, including global finite differences, continuum derivatives, discrete derivatives, and computational or automated differentiation. The objective is to put these different approaches to design sensitivity analysis in the context of accuracy and consistency, computational cost, and implementation options and effort. Linear static analysis and transient dynamic analysis are reviewed. In a separate appendix, special attention is paid to the semi-analytical method. A future paper will address design sensitivity analysis in nonlinear structural problems. 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

متن کاملSeismic Behavior Effect of Knee Braced Frames Considering Different Type of Geometry under Non-Linear Analysis
The design and behavior of a ductile structural system called a knee-braced moment frame are presented in this paper. The design of this structural system is based on a capacity-design concept that results in ductile behavior. The knee part is a fuse-like component that dissipates energy by the formation of plastic flexural and/or shear hinges at its ends and mid-span, when the building is subj...
متن کاملReliability and Sensitivity Analysis of Structures Using Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Systems
In this study, an efficient method based on Monte Carlo simulation, utilized with Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) is introduced for reliability analysis of structures. Monte Carlo Simulation is capable of solving a broad range of reliability problems. However, the amount of computational efforts that may involve is a draw back of such methods. ANFIS is capable of approximating str...
متن کاملStochastic extension of cellular manufacturing systems: a queuing-based analysis
Clustering parts and machines into part families and machine cells is a major decision in the design of cellular manufacturing systems which is defined as cell formation. This paper presents a non-linear mixed integer programming model to design cellular manufacturing systems which assumes that the arrival rate of parts into cells and machine service rate are stochastic parameters and descri...
