Abstrakt: Topology optimization (TO) has recently emerged as an advanced design method. To ensure practical reliability in the design process, it is imperative to incorporate considerations of uncertainty. Consequently, performing reliability analysis (RA) during the design phase becomes necessary. However, RA itself constitutes an optimization problem. Combining these two optimization problems can result in inefficiency. To address this challenge, we propose a decoupled approach that integrates deterministic topology optimization (DTO) and RA cycles. The reliability‐based stress‐constrained TO (RBSCTO) problem is considered in this paper. The DTO constraint is derived based on shifting vectors derived from the previous cycle's RA outcomes, enabling low‐reliability constraint shift towards the feasible direction. The DTO is solved based on solid‐isotropic‐material‐with‐penalization (SIMP) and augmented Lagrangian method. Meanwhile, the optimization problem in RA is addressed using finite differences and the interior point method. To reduce the errors resulting from linear approximation and optimization in RA when the target reliability is very low, an outlier handling method is employed. Meantime, we utilize a probabilistic neural network to enhance the efficiency of reliability assessment. Comparative studies against traditional methods across four RBSCTO tasks are demonstrated to validate its effectiveness. Monte Carlo simulations are used to validate the reliability of results.
