Structural Reliability Analysis and Design – StRAnD

Structural Reliability and Risk Analysis and Design (StRAnD) is a software being developed by the research group headed by Professor André T.

Structural Reliability and Risk Analysis and Design (StRAnD) is a software being developed by the research group headed by Professor André T. Beck in the SET-EESC-USP. The application quantifies the reliability (probability of failure), the risk and characterizes the probabilistic response of time-dependent and independent analytical and/ or numeric models, from the point of view of structural reliability. The current release works with 15 probabilistic distributions to random variables and envelopes of stochastic processes, and 4 types of stochastic processes.

Time-independent methods include:

  • Monte Carlo SMC simulation (on the original model, response surface and/ or neural networks) with intelligent sampling techniques (simple, by priority, asymptotic, enhanced, Markov chains; with simple sampling, latin hypercube, or antithetical variables);
  • First and second order approximation (FORM and SORM/ Breitung);

Time-dependent methods include:

  • Scalar integration (numeric);
  • Probability fast integration;
  • Probability total integration (via Monte Carlo simulation);
  • Joint assessment of failure probability;
  • Random Process Simulation;

The current user interface is based on input and output text files. SimWorx is migrating the Fortran Code to C++ as well as developing a new Graphical User Interface for the application.

Rock Mechanics Analytics – EMR

Rock Mechanics Analytics – EMR

The EMR software was developed for Petrobras’s Rock Mechanics Laboratory to provide a secure and easily accessible database, and a software to store and run analytics on lab data.

SimWorx developed the EMR application to support the lab with advanced analytics, and establish a process to evaluate rock mechanics test results done under the Brazilian Test, UCS – Unconfined Compressive Strength, and Triaxial methods.
