: The results presented in this work are based on the flowchart in Fig. . In order to replicate the results, a series of Matlab code is provided as . The attached Matlab file is named as “Main.m” and other function files can be utilized to compute the time-dependent reliability in case 4.2. For replication of the results of other cases in the proposed work, information of input variables and the random process can be modified in the corresponding source codes. It should be noted that the results presented in the paper are an average of 20 individual runs.
