Abstract (EN): An approach to reliability-based design (RBDO) of beam reinforced composite structures with non-linear geometric behavior is proposed. Simultaneously the optimal design is searched through a hierarchical genetic algorithm (HGA) based on weight minimization under prescribed reliability and buckling constraints. The uncertainty based on sensitivity analysis for the optimal solution obtained from HGA was performed and analyzed. The results show the asymptotic behavior of uncertainty propagation measured in the neighborhood of critical buckling values of the structural response.
