A Simple Third-Moment Reliability Index

The third-moment (3M) method has been considered to be one of the most reliable methods for calculating structural reliability with high computing efficiency. This paper proposes a new 3M reliability index that has a wider applicable range and less limitation. Numerical experiments show that the acc...
