Civil Engineering Systems Analysis (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This textbook covers tools and a selection of applications in civil engineering systems. It begins by reviewing the mathematical and statistical background for the adequate formulation of civil engineering problems. Then it reviews a series of economic theory topics required to understand current and future demand for infrastructure (i.e. housing, facilities and transportation networks) and its maintenance, improvement and expansion. The book covers problem definition, model formulation and decision making systems, including optimization, estimation and prediction.
