The calculation of the reliability index in nonlinear problems: A new method

The accurate estimation of the health (reliability) index is important to estimate probability of failure in the reliability assessment of structures. The conventional first-order reliability methods including the Hasofer-Lind, Rackwitz-Fiessler, and Monte Carlo could lead to unstable, fluctuating,...
