IntersectionEvent¶

class IntersectionEvent(*args)¶

Event defined as the intersection of several events.

The occurrence of all the events is necessary for the system event to occur (parallel system):

$E_{sys} = \bigcap_{i=1}^N E_i$

Parameters:

collsequence of RandomVector: Collection of events, evaluated from left to right. Ordering the least probable events first can help to avoid evaluating the last ones. In case the ranking of the probabilities of the events is unknown, it can be quickly estimated with (for example) a FORM analysis of each individual event.

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> dim = 2
>>> X = ot.RandomVector(ot.Normal(dim))
>>> f1 = ot.SymbolicFunction(['x1', 'x2'], ['x1'])
>>> f2 = ot.SymbolicFunction(['x1', 'x2'], ['x2'])
>>> Y1 = ot.CompositeRandomVector(f1, X)
>>> Y2 = ot.CompositeRandomVector(f2, X)
>>> e1 = ot.ThresholdEvent(Y1, ot.Less(), 0.0)
>>> e2 = ot.ThresholdEvent(Y2, ot.Greater(), 0.0)
>>> event = ot.IntersectionEvent([e1, e2])

Then it can be used for sampling (or with simulation algorithms):

>>> p = event.getSample(1000).computeMean()
