| Abstract | In order to evaluate the reliability of long-span cable-stayed bridges, a computational framework utilizing a hybrid algorithm is developed. The framework integrates the advantages of finite element analysis, radial basis function neural networks, genetic algorithms, and Monte-Carlo importance sampling method (MCIS) together. These approaches are combined intelligently with consideration of a platform. The feasibility of this framework is verified through a case study, where a prestressed concrete cable-stayed bridge is presented. The parametric study indicates that: a) the failure probability caused by displacement limit of mid-span is greater than that caused by the cable strength failure. b) the mean value and standard deviation of vehicle loads have a higher influence on reliability of the cable-stayed bridge. |
