• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Time-Dependent Reliability Theory and Its Applications introduces the theory of time-dependent reliability and presents methods to determine the reliability of structures over the lifespan of their services. The book contains state-of-the-art solutions to first passage probability derived from the theory of stochastic processes with different types of probability distribution functions, including Gaussian and non-Gaussian distributions and stationary and non-stationary processes. In addition, it provides various methods to determine the probability of failure over time, considering different failure modes and a methodology to predict the service life of structures.

Sections also cover the applications of time-dependent reliability to prediction of service life and development of risk cost-optimized maintenance strategy for existing structures. This new book is for those who wants to know how to predict the service life of a structure (buildings, bridges, aircraft structures, etc.) and how to develop a risk-cost, optimized maintenance strategy for these structures.

• Presents the basic knowledge required to predict service life and develop a maintenance strategy for infrastructure
• Explains how to predict the remaining safe life of the infrastructure during its lifespan of operation
• Describes how to carry out maintenance for an infrastructure to ensure its safe and serviceable operation during the designed service life
