An efficient Kriging-based framework for computationally demanding constrained structural optimization problems

Marcela A. Juliani et al.

Summary: This study proposes a global optimization framework based on the Kriging surrogate model to tackle structural problems with expensive constraints. By improving the metamodel only in regions of the design space that are likely to contain the optimal design, unnecessary constraint evaluations in unimportant areas are avoided. The approach yields results close to the best found in the literature and requires significantly shorter computational times compared to other methods.

Summary: A global sensitivity analysis approach based on the theory of active subspaces and Kriging surrogate metamodeling is developed, which provides three GSA measures at different steps. The approach is demonstrated to be applicable in various test cases, showing its ability to provide different aspects of information from a single set of model runs.

An adaptive failure boundary approximation method for reliability analysis and its applications

Kunling Song et al.

Summary: In order to reduce the computational cost in reliability analysis, this study proposes an adaptive failure boundary approximation method (AFBAM) by combining Kriging, uniform sampling, and a new adaptive learning strategy. The AFBAM takes full advantage of the binary classification feature of reliability analysis and efficiently approximates the failure boundary of the original model by selecting informative samples with the proposed learning strategy. The proposed method improves the efficiency of model refinement phase by making the reliability evaluation phase independent of an adaptive iterative process.
