Beschreibung
The book deals with analysis of reliability of mechanical systems, structures and devices. It addresses design for reliability, as well as quality assurance and quality control in mechanical manufacturing. This book is unique and non-classical, and reliability is defined non-probalistically as robustness to uncertainty. Convex-set models of uncertainty are described and used, rather than probabilistic models. This approach is particularly suited to the limited information typically available about uncertainties of complex mechanical systems. Static as well as dynamic systems, linear processes such as elastic vibration, and non-linear processes like damage evolution and fatigue failure are studied. Robust reliability is applied to evaluating the reliability of mathematical and convex models of uncertainty are combined in a hybrid reliability analysis applicable in those situations where prior information supports both types of uncertainty models. In short, a widely-applicable theory is developed through general discussion and many examples. Fachgebiet: Mechanical Engineering Zielgruppe: Research and Development
The aim of the book is to develop methodology for reliablity analysis which is particularly suited to the types of partial information characteristic of mechanical systems and structures.
The book is designed as an upper-level undergraduate or first-year graduate text on robust reliability of mechanical systems. It will give the student or engineer a working knowledge of robust reliability which will enable him to analyse the reliability of mechanical systems. Each chapter is introduced with a brief conceptual survey of the main ideas, which are then developed through examples. Problems at the end of each chapter give the student the opportunity to strengthen and extend his or her understanding.
