An efficient load effect combination method based on probability density evolution method

Dan Wang et al.

Summary: In this paper, a new updated extreme value method based on the probability density evolution method (PDEM) is proposed for the load effect combination of structures subjected to multiple time-varying loads. The effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed method is verified by taking a reinforced concrete frame as an example.

Reliability of stainless steel frames designed using the Direct Design Method in serviceability limit states

Itsaso Arrayago et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the serviceability reliability of cold-formed stainless steel portal frames designed using the Direct Design Method for different load cases. The study finds that the reliability of stainless steel frames appears to be adequate for the serviceability limit states investigated for the Eurocode, US, and Australian frameworks.

A reformulation of the stochastic load combination problem

Mahesh D. Pandey et al.

Summary: This paper revisits a classical problem of stochastic load combination, providing an accurate solution for the distribution of maximum combined load through an integral equation method. The proposed approach is accurate for all small and large load levels and time intervals, without relying on any asymptotic arguments.
