(a) Determine the Nataf model for the joint PDF fxx, (xx) of the basic (physical) random variables X₁
and X, with marginal PDF's
fx(x)=e, 0≤x
(Exponential distribution)
fx₁ (x2)=x2e-0.5x, 0≤x (Rayleigh distribution)
and correlation coefficient
Pxx=0.50
Note: Use Table 6 of paper by Liu and Der Kiureghian, 1986.

b. Determine the equations of the slope and the elastic curve using the coordinate x.
First, solve this problem parametrically, and then substitute the numerical
values for L, E, I, w at the end. There will be a significant penalty for solutions
that do not calculate the slope and deflection as parametric functions.
c. Specify the slope (in radians) at point A (parametrically and numerically).
d. Specify the vertical displacement at point B (parametrically and numerically).
