Structural engineering

reliability method that estimates very small failure probabilities as a product of larger conditional probabilities sampled by Markov chain Monte Carlo.

In structural engineering, subset simulation refers to reliability method that estimates very small failure probabilities as a product of larger conditional probabilities sampled by Markov chain Monte Carlo. This meaning comes from Au (2001) in Probabilistic Engineering Mechanics.[1]
