Probabilistic Analysis (PA)

View Product Datasheet (PDF)

Product Highlights:

·         Permits the simulations of progressive failure in composite structures taking into consideration uncertainties in material properties, loading conditions and service and manufacturing environments.

·         Generates various probabilistic responses and sensitivities based on the user defined perturbed random variables.

·         Can predict the complicated response of composite structures using the following quantities:

o        Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF)

o        Probability Density Function (PDF)

o        Probabilistic sensitivities

o        Random variables most probable design vectors

·         Requires the identification of variables and definition corresponding mean values, standard deviation, and distribution types. The distribution types supported by GENOA-PA include:

o        Normal

o        Lognormal

o        Weibull

·         Can facilitate the assessment of the reliability of advanced materials and structures for a variety of applications including automotive and aerospace.
