u_multi_point

MPP search for local reliability based on QMEA multi-point approximation in x-space

## Specification

Alias: none

Argument(s): none

## Description

Local reliability methods that search for the most probable point of failure (MPP) may use a surrogate-based optimization procedure. The `u_multi_point` surrogate option creates a QMEA approximation in the transformed probability space ("u-space") from accumulating data from multiple expansion points.

This capability is experimental.
