Abstract: A general response surface( RS) met hod is pr esented for reliability analysis o f complex struc
tur e/ mechanism w ith fuzzy random uncertainty both in basic variables and in failure state variables. On
t he basis of equivalent transformation from fuzzy basic variable to random basic variable, the fuzziness
and randomness in the basic variables are considered simultaneously in t he presented general RS method.
O nce the fuzzy basic variables are transformed into the random basic var iables, the conv entional RS
method is employed to establish the g ener al RS for the complex structur e/ mechanism w ith implicit limit
state equation by finite element numerical simulation. F urt hermore, the general failure probability is de
fined accor ding to t he probability formula for fuzzy random ev ent by taking the fuzziness and randomness
in the failure safety state into consideration, and an appropriate fuzzy oper ator is adopted to calculate the
g eneral failur e pr obability for the complex structur e/ mechanism with mult iple implicit failure modes. Fi
nally, a g eneral reliability analysis of an elastic linkage mechanism is introduced to illustrate t he pr esent
method.
