A method for the reliability analysis of brittle structures subjected to thermal shocks is presented. Flaws with a given probability distribution of size are assumed to be distributed at random with a certain density per unit volume in the structures. Criteria for crack instability are derived for b

A&&ra&--A previously proposed method for the reliability analysis of brittle structures subjected to thermal shocks is extended to include the uncertainties about the ma~itudes of the applied thermal shocks and the fracture strength of the brittle materials. Flaws with a given probability distributi
A method is proposed for estimating the hazard rate and reliability function of structural components under the fatigue environment including random overloads. The fatigue crack propagation process is stochastically analyzed by the use of a Markov approximation method in consideration of the retarda
