Original Abstract

This article presents the global sensitivity analysis of the serviceability limit state of a steel truss using Monte Carlo simulations. The focus is on the probabilistic assessment of deflection, with failure probability defined as the likelihood of exceeding the deflection limit. Deflection is computed using the beam finite element method. A surrogate model is introduced to reduce computational costs. By integrating the surrogate and original models, significant CPU cost reductions are achieved. Furthermore, classical Sobol sensitivity analysis is used to examine the model outputs and analyze the significance of member loading and stiffness on the deflection. This study advances the use of surrogate models in global sensitivity analysis, enhancing computational efficiency and the understanding of interactions between input variables in the reliability assessment of steel truss structures.
