In this contribution, a methodology for the calculation of optimal bounds on the probability of failure of soft biological tissues is presented. Two potential rupture criteria are considered and an uncertainty quantification method [1] is applied to a virtual experimental data set. The results for both criteria are compared in a finite element example. (© 2014 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
