摘要:Sensitivity analysis plays a crucial role in identifying the structure important parameters. In this article, a new non-probabilistic parameter sensitivity analysis method is proposed according to the ellipsoidal model. Meanwhile, an analytical solution of non-probabilistic parameter sensitivity analysis method based on the ellipsoidal model is derived for linear performance function, as well as an approximately analytical solution is obtained for nonlinear performance function using the first-order Taylor expansion to linearize the functions in design point. Finally, the proposed method is illustrated by three examples, which shows that it is reasonable and applicable.
