Efficient stochastic simulation-based computational modeling for structural design, reliability, and life-cycle assessment

Abstract

Under the auspices of the ONR Young Investigator Program and the ONR Ship Structural Reliability Program, John Hopkins will develop novel computational modeling and simulation-based approaches to improve the design, reliability, and life-cycle assessment of structures. These advances bring together powerful new stochastic simulation tools and advanced computationalstructural modeling capabilities to usher in a new era of uncertainty informed structural analyses. The methods are rigorously developed (with firm mathematical foundations) yet easy to implement in practice and computationally efficient to use, which means they can begin to have an impact on the computational assessment of real structures immediately throughout the Navy and in industrial settings as well.
