A probabilistic approach of the current thermal fatigue design of nuclear components is set up. It aims at incorporating all kinds of uncertainties that affect the thermal fatigue behaviour. This approach is based on the theory of structural reliability. Two dual approaches of reliability analysis f
The paper outlines the potential appfication of a general purpose finite element program ( ABA Q US) together with reliability based methods in the structural design and analysis of externally pressurised vessels. The approximate closed form solutions validated through linear finite element models a
A exibility-based formulation of a new mass matrix for the dynamic analysis of spatial frames consisting of curved elements with variable cross-sections is presented. The main characteristic of such formulations is the exact equilibrium of forces at any interior point, with no additional hypotheses
