Abstract

The primary purpose of this report is to document the theoretical methodologies used to construct the reliability model which is the main work scope of Deliverable D1.1 in Work Package 1 (WP1). The reliability model is closely associated with WPs 4, 5 & 7 which focus on the investigation into failure mechanisms by means of the fracture mechanics study and the laboratory tests (at a coupon level, a sub-component level or at a full-scale level). It is important to develop and describe the probabilistic model as basis for reliability analyses and to obtain probabilistic models for the rate of crack/defect propagation for a specific failure mechanism.
