Reliability Sensitivity Based on Profust Model: An Application to Aircraft Icing Analysis

Local and global reliability sensitivity analysis (RSA) based on the Profust model, a reliability model based on probability inputs and fuzzy-state assumption, can provide useful information in the Profust reliability-based design optimization. It is still a challenge to efficiently estimate two RSAs simultaneously. This paper mainly focuses on the estimation of two RSAs. First, by employing the general performance function (GPF) theory and...
