Interval nonlinear analysis of spatially curved structures with material and geometric uncertainties.

理解不确定性对弯曲结构非线性行为的影响，有助于澳大利亚弯曲结构的准确安全评估和设计。创新的间隔方法将专门应用于重要的弧形结构，其高效可靠的施工为澳大利亚建筑业带来了巨大的优势。该项目将带来新颖的成果，使澳大利亚的研究多年来保持在该学科的前沿，从而保持其在曲线结构和非线性结构力学研究方面的国际公认的杰出声誉。

Understanding the implications of uncertainties on the nonlinear behaviour of curved structures that are sensitive to property variations helps the accurate safety assessment and design of curved structures in Australia. The innovative interval approach will be applied specifically to the important class of curved structures, the efficient and reliable construction of which promises great advantages for the Australian construction industry. The project will lead to novel outcomes that will keep Australian research at the forefront of the discipline for many years, and so maintaining its internationally recognised outstanding reputation in the research of curved structures and nonlinear structural mechanics.
