Journal of mechanical designSummary: In this paper, two second-order methods are proposed for reliability analysis. First, general random variables are transformed to standard normal random variables. Then, the limit-state function is additively decomposed into one-dimensional functions, which are then expanded at the mean-value point to second-order terms. The approximated limit-state function becomes the sum of independent variables following noncentral chi-square distributions or normal distributions.
