Lehký∗, O. Slowik, D. Novák Brno University of Technology, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Institute of Structural Mechanics, Czechia a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t Article history: Two advanced optimization approaches to solving a reliability-based design problem are presented. The Received 1 March 2017 first approach is based on the utilization of an artificial neural network and a small-sample simulation Revised 9 May 2017 technique. The second approach considers an inverse reliability task as a reliability-based optimization Accepted 21 June 2017 task using a double-loop optimization method based on small-sample simulation. Both techniques uti- Available online 27 June 2017 lize Latin hypercube sampling with correlation control. The efficiency of both approaches is tested using Keywords: three numerical examples of structural design – a cantilever beam, a reinforced concrete slab and a post- Inverse reliability problem tensioned composite bridge.
