Philosophies of Structural Safety and Reliability (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Uncertainty is certain to be found in structural engineering, making it crucial to structure design. This book covers three competing philosophies behind structural safety and reliability: probabilistic analysis, fuzzy-sets based treatments, and the convex approach.
