摘要
This paper is a survey of the state-of-the-art knowledge in structural redundancy measure and its application. The existing deterministic and probabilistic measures of structural redundancy are summarized. Emphasis is given to the discussion of their advantages and limitations. The application bf damage tolerance concept in the design and maintenance of marine structures is also reviewed. Some most critical problems in structural redundancy are proposed for future research.
