What are the short term goals
What are the long term goals
What are the Boundaries
What is the Product
- Seperate Module with clear interface to any FE code!
- Working Interface to OpenSees

Explanation/THEORY (Armen & Terje)
have a look:
Probabilistic Assessment of Structures!
how to explain what these modules will do to a structural engineer.
What does reliability, sensitivity and optimization mean in context of structural engineering
What is the process

Design
Based on Terje's original work, Kevin & Michaels changes.
One new change all agree on is use of a new FunctionEvaluator class and introduction of some other class to store results in.
<uml> abstract class FunctionEvaluator FunctionEvaluator <|-- TclFunctionEvaluator FunctionEvaluator : double eval(const char * =0) </uml>
