Abstract
The present paper discusses an innovative approach providing the solution sets of engineering structures with uncertain parameters. The approach is based on the properties of convex sets and can be applied to structures described by the system of algebraic equations. The present paper focuses on trusses and frames applications, but in general it can be applied to various structures made of thin and thick bars and some plate and shell problems. The uncertain parameters are assumed to be independent. In addition, calculations are valid for any level of uncertainty and the obtained solution sets are exact within the assumed theory and are insensitive for perturbed data. Furthermore, solutions obtained by the present approach can be considered as benchmark solutions and can be used as a reference for other algorithms. The presented formulae allow the analysis of the influence of uncertain parameters on the behaviour of the structure. The presented considerations are illustrated by calculation of two truss examples.
