Reliability analysis for aeroengine turbine disc fatigue life with multiple random variables based on distributed collaborative response surface method

The fatigue life of aeroengine turbine disc presents great dispersion due to the randomness of the basic variables,such as applied load,working temperature,geometrical dimensions and material properties.In order to ameliorate reliability analysis efficiency without loss of reliability,the distributed collaborative response surface method(DCRSM) was proposed,and its basic theories were established in this work.Considering the failure dependency among the failure modes,the distributed response surface was constructed to establish the relationship between the failure mode and the relevant random variables.Then,the failure modes were considered as the random variables of system response to obtain the distributed collaborative response surface model based on structure failure criterion.Finally,the given turbine disc structure was employed to illustrate the feasibility and validity of the presented method.Through the comparison of DCRSM,Monte Carlo method(MCM) and the traditional response surface method(RSM),the results show that the computational precision for DCRSM is more consistent with MCM than RSM,while DCRSM needs far less computing time than MCM and RSM under the same simulation conditions.Thus,DCRSM is demonstrated to be a feasible and valid approach for improving the computational efficiency of reliability analysis for aeroengine turbine disc fatigue life with multiple random variables,and has great potential value for the complicated mechanical structure with multi-component and multi-failure mode.

On the strong convergence properties for weighted sums of negatively orthant dependent random variables

In the paper, the strong convergence properties for two different weighted sums of negatively orthant dependent(NOD) random variables are investigated. Let {X, n ≥ 1}be a sequence of NOD random variables. The results obtained in the paper generalize the corresponding ones for i.i.d. random variables and identically distributed NA random variables to the case of NOD random variables, which are stochastically dominated by a random variable X. As a byproduct, the Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund type strong law of large numbers for NOD random variables is also obtained.

The results obtained in the paper generalize some corresponding ones for independent random variables and some dependent random variables.

The result obtained generalize the results of Chen(2008) and extend those to negatively associated sequences and ρ^--mixing random variables.

Central limit theolrem for linear processes generated byⅡD random variables under the sub-linear expectation

In this paper,we investigate the central limit theorem and the invariance principle for linear processes generated by a new notion of independently and identically distributed(IID)random variables for sub-linear expectations initiated by Peng[19].It turns out that these theorems are natural and fairly neat extensions of the classical Kolmogorov's central limit theorem and invariance principle to the case where probability measures are no longer additive.

PROBABILITY INEQUALITIES FOR SUMS OF INDEPENDENT UNBOUNDED RANDOM VARIABLES

The tail probability inequalities for the sum of independent unbounded random variables on a probability space (Omega, T, P) were studied and a new method was proposed to treat the sum of independent unbounded random variables by truncating the original probability space (Omega, T, P). The probability exponential inequalities for sums of the results, some independent unbounded random variables were given. As applications of interesting examples were given. The examples show that the method proposed in the paper and the results of the paper are quite useful in the study of the large sample properties of the sums of independent unbounded random variables.
