Direct plastic structural design under lognormally distributed strength by chance constrained programming [link]Website  doi  abstract   bibtex   
We propose the so-called chance constrained programming model of stochastic programming to analyze limit and shakedown loads of structures under random strength with a lognormal distribution. A dual chance constrained programming algorithm is developed to calculate simultaneously both the upper and lower bounds of the plastic collapse limit and the shakedown limit. The edge-based smoothed finite element method (ES-FEM) is used with three-node linear triangular elements.
