Abstract
The paper presents the concept of probabilistic sensitivity of structural limit states with respect to given design variables. A general idea is presented, illustrated by a simple case solved in an analytical way. More general approach is presented for the engineering structures, in this case a dedicated Monte Carlo simulation procedure is involved as part of the methodology. Illustration of the engineering case is done, by means of the computational method, the results are estimators of the probability density functions of the limit state of a structure, with respect to a given parameter. The proposed definition of probabilistic sensitivity is based on the problem-oriented numerical algorithm, thus it can be included into the class of computational methods.
