Optimization-assisted Reliability Analysis

Optimization-assisted reliability analysis couples probabilistic reliability assessment with mathematical optimization to simultaneously identify failure probabilities and find design configurations that satisfy reliability targets at minimum cost or weight. Widely applied in structural, mechanical, and aerospace engineering, it integrates methods such as FORM, SORM, or Monte Carlo simulation within an optimization loop so that design decisions are driven by quantified risk rather than deterministic safety factors alone.
