How to terminate the loop

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
I want to terminate the loop. Condition is satisfying at i = 96, but loop is still running till the end.
after the termination, i want to know the value of i.
point_load(1) = 0;
for i = 1 : 100
point_load(i + 1) = point_load(i) + 1;
PL_BM(i) = point_load(i) * beam_length / 4;
PL_BM = repelem(PL_BM(i),n);
failure_domain_BM = ( RV_BM - PL_BM(i) ) < 0;
p_f_BM = sum(failure_domain_BM (:) == 1) / n;
if p_f_BM == 1
break
disp(point_load(i+1))
end
end

Due to floating-point error, it may be that the condition
if p_f_BM == 1
is not exactly met. With floating-point numbers, it's better to check for equality within some tolerance. Try something like
if abs(p_f_BM-1) < tol
for some appropriately small value of tol.

n is too big
you need a larger breaking point, maybe 1e-5?

b18 = 3+0+0+7+6+0+4+9; % b18 = 29
b58 = 6+0+4+9; % b58 = 19
n = 10000000; % No of samples = 10,000,000
rng default
beam_length = 5; % Beam length = 5 m
% Bending Moment Capacity follows a log-normal distribution
mean_BM = 2 * b18; % mean of BM = 58 kNm
COV_BM = 0.01 * b58; % COV of BM = 0.19
variance_BM = (mean_BM * COV_BM)^2; % Variance of BM = 121.4404
mu_BM = log(mean_BM^2 / sqrt(mean_BM^2 + variance_BM)); % Location parameter of BM = 4.0427
sigma_BM = sqrt(log(1 + (variance_BM / mean_BM^2))); % Scale paramaeter of BM = 0.1883
RV_BM = lognrnd(mu_BM, sigma_BM, 1, n);
point_load(1) = 0;
for i = 1 : 100
point_load(i + 1) = point_load(i) + 1;
PL_BM(i) = point_load(i) * beam_length / 4;
%PL_BM = repelem(PL_BM(i),n);
failure_domain_BM = sum( RV_BM < PL_BM(i) );
p_f_BM = failure_domain_BM / n
if p_f_BM >= 0.9999
disp(['i=' num2str(i)])
break
end
end
this gave me i=93

He did mark the cyclist's answer as "Accepted".

Hello Ridwan,
Thabks for the reply. I got the answer. It was a floating point error. When I kept the difference too small around 5e-4, i got the answer. Thanks again.
