Reliability and Statistics in Geotechnical Engineering

Beschreibung

Risk and reliability analysis is an area of growing importance ingeotechnical engineering, where many variables have to beconsidered. Statistics, reliability modeling and engineeringjudgement are employed together to develop risk and decisionanalyses for civil engineering systems. The resulting engineeringmodels are used to make probabilistic predictions, which areapplied to geotechnical problems. Reliability & Statistics in Geotechnical Engineeringcomprehensively covers the subject of risk and reliability in bothpractical and research terms * Includes extensive use of case studies * Presents topics not covered elsewhere--spatial variability andstochastic properties of geological materials * No comparable texts available Practicing engineers will find this an essential resource as willgraduates in geotechnical engineering programmes.
