Monte-Carlo simulation is a useful modeling technique for characterizing the reliability of structural components and systems. This paper provides an overview of methods and software for fitting probability distributions and modeling correlated-random variables used as input to a Monte-Carlo simulation. Also, the paper discusses techniques for validating simulation models.
