1. Structural reliability model considering mixed probabilistic and interval variables
Abstract Traditional probability-based structural reliability analysis method can only consider random uncertainties described by random distribution functions, which required sufficient experimental samples. On comparison, interval uncertainties can be more appropriate when lacking information. In realistic situations, several structural reliability models

2. Development of a method for simultaneous analysis of caffeine and taurine in energy drinks by micellar electrokinetic chromatography with diode-array detector
Abstract The objective of this study was to develop, optimize and validate a fast and reliable method for the simultaneous determination of caffeine and taurine contents by micellar electrokinetic chromatography with diode array detector, using direct and indirect detection concomitantly. Multivariate statistical techniques were used as a central composite d

3. SPATIAL DEPENDENCE DEGREE AND SAMPLING NEIGHBORHOOD INFLUENCE ON INTERPOLATION PROCESS FOR FERTILIZER PRESCRIPTION MAPS
ABSTRACT Data interpolation is widely required in precision agriculture. However, its effectiveness is a function of the characteristics of the dataset, being necessary for the evaluation of several parameters. This study aimed to identify how the spatial interpolators, Kriging, and Inverse Distance Weighting, are influenced by the degree of spatial dependen

4. RELIABILITY-BASED MULTI-OBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION APPLIED TO CHEMICAL ENGINEERING DESIGN
ABSTRACT Chemical engineering optimization represents a significant challenge due to the complexity of the mathematical models that are frequently required in this area. These models are normally associated with nonlinear equations that represent mass, energy, and momentum balances, which are submitted to physical, constitutive, environmental, and design lim

5. Strut-and-tie models for linear and nonlinear behavior of concrete based on topological evolutionary structure optimization (ESO)
Resumo A busca por sistemas resistentes representativos para estrutura de concreto requer profundo conhecimento sobre seu comportamento mecânico. Os modelos de bielas e tirantes são procedimentos clássicos utilizados no dimensionamento do concreto armado onde existem concentrações de tensão, as chamadas regiões descontínuas da estrutura. No entanto,

6. Multi-objective optimization with Kriging surrogates using “moko”, an open source package
Abstract Many modern real-world designs rely on the optimization of multiple competing goals. For example, most components designed for the aerospace industry must meet some conflicting expectations. In such applications, low weight, low cost, high reliability, and easy manufacturability are desirable. In some cases, bounds for these requirements are not cle

8. Optimum sample size in quantitative characteristics of seeds of polyembrynic mango
Abstract Determining the sample size in a scientific investigation is important because it gives reliability in the results together with the efficiency in the use of resources and optimization of time. Polyembryony is a characteristic that allows to obtaining clonal and zygotic plants in the same seed. In mango this characteristic is presented, however, th

9. Aircraft Preventive Maintenance Data Evaluation Applied in Integrated Product Development Process
ABSTRACT: Initial Maintenance Review Board Report (MRBR) uses in service operation experience as a reference to define maintenance tasks intervals. However, in general, there is no structured data to compare systems performance and provide useful information to the analysts' decision-making. Even when engineering judgment is based on certification process, s

10. Optimization of location and forces of friction dampers
Abstract Damper optimization is a new area which has been investigated in recent years. There are various methods employed in optimization, among which are highlighted the classic and the most recent that are functioning with reliability, efficiency and speed for optimum results. This paper proposes a method for simultaneous optimization of placement and for

12. Incorporation of geological uncertainty in pit optimization with geostatistics simulation
Abstract Risk mapping processes in mine planning and ore recovery are constantly used in the mining industry to increase decision making certainty based on the available information. However, it is not possible to predict the risk behavior in all of the project's boundary conditions and small variations in some of these conditions can cause a great impact on
