The webinar topic will be probabilistic analysis and modelling using FReET software. Methods for efficient statistical, sensitivity and reliability assessment will be presented. The attention is given to the techniques which are developed for an analysis of computationally intensive problems which is typical for a nonlinear FEM analysis – like represented by ATENA software.

The following topics will be covered during the webinar:

• Basics of structural reliability theory, uncertainty propagation
• Monte Carlo – type simulation techniques, Latin hypercube sampling
• Statistical correlation control by simulated annealing
• Sensitivity analysis
• Demonstration of software FREET (http://www.freet.cz)
• Discussion and Q&A
