RiskyAndFast

class RiskyAndFast(*args)

RiskyAndFast method.

Available constructors:

RiskyAndFast(solver=ot.Brent())

RiskyAndFast(solver, maximumDistance, stepSize)

Parameters

solverSolver

Non linear solver used to research the intersection of the limit state function with the direction, on each segment of length stepSize, between the center of the space and maximumDistance (root research).

maximumDistancepositive float

Distance from the center of the standard space until which we research an intersection with the limit state function along each direction. By default, the maximum distance is equal to the value defined through the key RootStrategyImplementation-DefaultMaximumDistance of the ResourceMap.

stepSizefloat

Length of each segment inside which the root research is performed. By default, the step size is equal to the value defined through the key RootStrategyImplementation-DefaultStepSize of the ResourceMap.

DirectionalSampling

Notes

The RiskyAndFast strategy is the following: for each direction, we check whether there is a sign changement of the standard limit state function between the maximum distant point (at distance maximumDistance from the center of the standard space) and the center of the standard space.

In case of sign changement, we search one root in the segment [origin, maximum distant point] with the selected non linear solver.

As soon as founded, the segment [root, infinity point] is considered within the failure space.
