Popis: This work aims to develop an approach for the reliability-based analysis for the design and repair of pressurized pipes by means of composite solutions. To this end, the approach uses a simulation method to estimate the failure probability of the solution based on the Monte Carlo approach and a Polynomial Chaos Expansion surrogate metamodeling strategy. This combination allows us to reduce the computational time required for evaluating the system’s probability of failure as well as extracting the Sobol’ indices during the sensitivity analysis stage. The uncertainties related with the composite solution were obtained by means of the Digital Image Correlation approach, allowing us to extract the Probabilistic Distribution Functions (PDF) of its main mechanical parameters. This methodology is validated through the design and repair of a pressurized pipe using a carbon fiber solution and roll wrapping technology. The results show the strong potential of the proposed methodology for the safety evaluation of pressurized composite pipes.
