__init__(problem, nearestPointAlgorithm)

Creates a SORM algorithm.

We create a SORM algorithm based on the problem event and the AbdoRackwitz optimization solver.

Parameters:

problemot.ReliabilityBenchmarkProblem

The problem.

nearestPointAlgorithmot.OptimizationAlgorithm

Optimization algorithm used to search the design point.

getAnalyticalResult()

Accessor to the result.

Returns:

resultAnalyticalResult

Result structure which contains the results of the optimisation problem.

getClassName()

Accessor to the object’s name.

Returns:

class_namestr

The object class name (object.__class__.__name__).

getEvent()

Accessor to the event of which the probability is calculated.

Returns:

eventRandomVector

Event of which the probability is calculated.

getName()

Accessor to the object’s name.

Returns:

namestr

The name of the object.

getNearestPointAlgorithm()

Accessor to the optimization algorithm used to find the design point.

Returns:

algorithmOptimizationAlgorithm

Optimization algorithm used to research the design point.

getPhysicalStartingPoint()

Accessor to the starting point of the optimization algorithm.

Returns:

pointPoint

Starting point of the optimization algorithm, declared in the physical space.

getResult()

Accessor to the result of SORM.

Returns:

resultSORMResult

Structure containing all the results of the SORM analysis.

hasName()

Test if the object is named.

Returns:

hasNamebool

True if the name is not empty.

run()

Evaluate the failure probability.

Notes

Evaluate the failure probability and create a SORMResult, the structure result which is accessible with the method getResult().

setEvent(event)

Accessor to the event of which the probability is calculated.

Parameters:

eventRandomVector

Event of which the probability is calculated.

setName(name)

setPhysicalStartingPoint(physicalStartingPoint)

Accessor to the starting point of the optimization algorithm.

Parameters:

pointsequence of float

Starting point of the optimization algorithm, declared in the physical space.

setResult(sormResult)

Accessor to the result of SORM.

Parameters:

resultSORMResult

Structure containing all the results of the SORM analysis.
