Metamodel-assisted optimization is a valuable alternative to handle structural design
optimization procedures, which are usually quite expensive and sometimes even prohibitive …

Abstract In Reliability-based Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (RBMDO), the key
performance functions of wind turbine are usually implicit, which means the performance …

Metaheuristic algorithms have been widely concerned by scholars because of their global
optimization ability that does not depend on gradient information. In this study, Water Cycle …

In a wind turbine, the rolling bearing is the critical component. However, it has a high failure
rate. Therefore, the failure analysis and fault diagnosis of wind power rolling bearings are …

The classical reliability analysis methods, due to the ever-increasing complexity of
engineering structure, may lead to higher and higher calculation errors and costs. The …

As one of the multidisciplinary design optimization methods, the collaborative optimization
(CO) can enjoy a high degree of discipline autonomy. It has received extensive attention and …

Big data of different types, such as texts and images, are rapidly generated from the internet
and other applications. Dealing with this data using traditional methods is not practical since …

Actual engineering systems will be inevitably affected by uncertain factors. Thus, the
Reliability-Based Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (RBMDO) has become a hotspot for …

Purpose This study conducts a comparative study on the performance of reliability
assessment methods based on adaptive surrogate models to accurately assess the …

An efficient multi-objective reliability-based design optimization (MO-RBDO) method is
proposed based on the probability and interval hybrid model. With probability variables …
