Bounded-But-Unknown uncertainty optimization using design sensitivities and parallel computing: Application to MEMS

In the present paper uncertainty-based design optimization of structures is carried out. A description of uncertainties via bounds on the uncertainty variables is adopted. An anti-optimization technique, which searches for the combinations of uncertainties yielding the worst responses, is used to ta...
