The objective of the macro is to perform a FORM SORM study.
This example comes from De Victor's thesis. The problem has three input variables x, fe and M. Each variable follows a normal distribution with the following mean and standard error: x is N(40, 5), fe is N(50, 2.5) and M is N(1000,200). The safety threshold is calculated with M-x*fe and should be positive for a safe solution.
The Script follows the following steps:
a macro section to choose the optimisation solver;
a namespace section;
the definition of the safety function;
the study procedure.

The study procedure requests the definition of:
variables: input variables with their statistical laws and the output variable;
the starting point for the design point optimisation. Take care that it is defined in the normal space (not in the physical space);
evaluation functions; the transformation function, the safety function, and the composition of both of them;
a standard sequential
TRun;the
TDataServerwith its inputs declaration;the FORM optimisation sequence;
the SORM estimation sequence;
back-up and finalisation.

There are two lines used to show the optimisation progress (evaluation numbers), and then the resulting TDataServer is
shown. Columns start with two indexes, the three normal variables, the Hasofer-Lind indicator, the FORM estimation,
the three physical variables, the FORM correction, and the SORM estimation.
