Abstract

This paper shows the relevance of the task of assessing the structural reliability of networks with undetermined topology. Proposed is a method for assessing the structural reliability of networks of undetermined topology based on taking into account the basic structural characteristics of the network (the number of nodes and branches, the degree of network connectivity, the maximum allowable rank of paths, and others). To obtain an estimate of the structural reliability for a network of any dimension and any topology, expressions are proposed in the scientific research to determine the number of paths of various ranks, which must be taken into account when calculating the structural reliability index by the upper and lower bounds method.

Keywords:

network of undetermined topology, structural reliability, route rank, number of routes of a certain rank, upper and lower bounds
