Abstract
A fuzzy method for determining appropriate structural design is presented. Nonstochastic uncertainty is quantified using fuzzy values and fuzzy random variables. Fuzzy structural parameters are processed on the basis of a generally applicable numerical method for arbitrary nonlinear fuzzy structural analyses. Fuzzy randomness is introduced into a fuzzy probabilistic safety assessment. This leads to fuzzy results representing fuzzy structural responses and fuzzy safety levels. Referring to permissible structural responses and safety levels uncertain structural design parameters are derived. The nonlinear fuzzy structural analysis including uncertain structural design is demonstrated by way of an example.
