Abstract

This article provides two unique methodologies that may be coupled to study the dependability of multidimensional nonlinear dynamic systems. First, the structural reliability approach is well suited for multidimensional environmental and structural reactions and is either measured or numerically simulated over sufficient time, yielding lengthy ergodic time series. Second, a unique approach to predicting extreme values has technical and environmental implications. In the event of measurable environmental loads, it is also feasible to calculate the probability of system failure, as shown in this research. In addition, traditional probability approaches for time series cannot cope effectively with the system's high dimensionality and cross-correlation across dimensions. It is common knowledge that wind speeds represent a complex, nonlinear, multidimensional, and cross-correlated dynamic environmental system that is always difficult to analyze. Additionally, global warming is a significant element influencing ocean waves throughout time. This section aims to demonstrate the efficacy of the previously mentioned technique by applying a novel method to the Norwegian offshore data set for the greatest daily wind cast speeds in the vicinity of the Landvik wind station. This study aims to evaluate the state-of-the-art approach for extracting essential information about the extreme reaction from observed time histories. The approach provided in this research enables the simple and efficient prediction of failure probability for the whole nonlinear multidimensional dynamic system.
