He was up on a pyre, and he was going to be burned when he remembered Solon, the Greek, who had come to him and warned him about the vain glory, and he said,oh Solon, oh Solon.

About Genre RPG Rating Rated 'E10+' for Fantasy Violence, Tobacco Reference, Mild Language, Use of Alcohol Summary Lead your band of exiles to freedom through a series of ancient competitions spread across a vast, mystical purgatory in Pyre, an RPG from the creators of Bastion and Transistor. You’ll meet and grow closer to a large cast of colorful characters of all shapes and sizes as you make your way to secretive locations where you’ll confront rival bands of exiles in tense, action-packed showdowns.

NoteIf you have any problems, found bugs in the code or have feature requestcomments or questions, please feel free to send a mail to Jürgen Hackl. Purpose
PyRe (Python Reliability) is a python module for structural reliabilityanalysis. Its flexibility and extensibility make it applicable to a largesuite of problems. Along with core reliability analysis functionality, PyReincludes methods for summarizing output.
NoteAt the moment First-Order Reliability Methods Crude Monte Carlo Simulationand Importance Sampling are supported! Second-Order Reliability Methods andsome different sensitivity analysis will hopefully follow soon :) Installation
PyRe is pure python code. It has no platform-specific dependencies and shouldthus work on all platforms. It builds on numpy and scipy. The latestversion of pyre can be installed by typing:
History
The FERUM (Finite Element Reliability Using Matlab) project was initiated in1999 at the University of California, Berkeley, by Terje Haukaas and Armen DerKiureghian, primarily for pedagogical purposes aimed at teaching and learningstructural reliability and stochastic finite elements methods. [DerKiureghian2006]This code consists of an open-source Matlab toolbox, featuring variousstructural reliability methods. The latest available version (version 3.1),which can be downloaded from FERUM. Since 2003, this code is no longerofficially maintained. [Bourinet2010]
A new version of this open-source code (FERUM 4.x) based on a work carried outat the Institut Français de Mécanique Avancée (IFMA) in Clermont-Ferrand,France. This version offers improved capabilities such as simulation-basedtechnique (Subset Simulation), Global Sensitivity Analysis (based on Sobol’sindices), Reliability-Based Design Optimization (RBDO) algorithm, GlobalSensitivity Analysis and reliability assessment based on Support VectorMachine (SVM) surrogates, etc. Beyond the new methods implemented in thisMatlab code. [Bourinet2009]
Of the purpose, to use structural reliability analysis for the project'Generic Framework for Stochastic Modeling of Reinforced ConcreteDeterioration Caused by Corrosion' [Hackl2013] a python version of FERUM hasbeen created.
The focus here lies on the reliability analysis and not more on the finiteelement method, so only the core function of FERUM are implemented.
Features
PyRe provides functionalities to make structural reliability analysis as easyas possible. Here is a short list of some of its features:
Getting started
This Documentation provides all the information needed to install PyRe, code areliability model, run the sampler, save and visualize the results. Inaddition, it contains a list of the statistical distributions currentlyavailable.
