Eldred et al. (2007) Lognormal Ratio Function


Description:

Dimensions: 2

This test example is a limit state function, defining the boundary between safe and failed regions of the input domain (Eldred et al., 2070).

Input Distributions:

The distributions of the input random variables are: xi ~ Lognormal(1, 0.5), for all i = 1, 2. There is a correlation coefficient of 0.3 between the two variables.

Code:
