Structural and System Reliability

Autor Armen der Kiureghian
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 ian 2022

În volumul Structural and System Reliability, abordarea practică este susținută de o structură pedagogică rafinată de-a lungul a zeci de ani la University of California, Berkeley. Ne-a atras atenția modul în care Armen der Kiureghian reușește să echilibreze rigoarea matematică a analizei stochastice cu nevoile imediate ale ingineriei structurale moderne. Reținem că volumul nu se limitează la prezentarea formulelor, ci ghidează cititorul prin procesul de modelare a incertitudinilor, oferind la finalul fiecărui capitol seturi de probleme concepute să testeze înțelegerea fenomenelor reale. Pe linia practică a lucrării Application of Structural Systems Reliability Theory, dar cu un focus extins pe metodele de fiabilitate cu element finit și dinamica structurală stochastică, acest tratat publicat de Cambridge University Press acoperă un spectru vast. Primele capitole consolidează fundamentele probabilităților și distribuțiilor multivariate, pregătind terenul pentru metodele FORM și SORM (ordinul întâi și al doilea). Progresia este logică și densă, avansând spre subiecte de frontieră, cum ar fi fiabilitatea variantă în timp și spațiu sau optimizarea designului bazat pe fiabilitate. Un aspect distinctiv al acestei lucrări de 610 pagini este integrarea rețelelor Bayesian pentru evaluarea și actualizarea fiabilității, o metodă esențială în gestionarea datelor incomplete. Comparativ cu alte texte din domeniu, lucrarea de față se remarcă prin densitatea exemplelor care fac tranziția de la concepte abstracte la aplicații inginerești complexe, fiind o resursă tehnică ce servește atât ca manual avansat, cât și ca referință pentru inginerii proiectanți care se confruntă cu analiza riscului structural.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm această carte studenților la masterat și doctorat, precum și inginerilor din domeniile civil, mecanic și aerospațial care doresc să stăpânească metodele moderne de analiză a fiabilității. Cititorul câștigă o înțelegere profundă a modului în care incertitudinile materialelor și sarcinilor influențează siguranța structurilor, beneficiind de expertiza unuia dintre pionierii domeniului, Armen der Kiureghian.


Descriere scurtă

Based on material taught at the University of California, Berkeley, this textbook offers a modern, rigorous and comprehensive treatment of the methods of structural and system reliability analysis. It covers the first- and second-order reliability methods for components and systems, simulation methods, time- and space-variant reliability, and Bayesian parameter estimation and reliability updating. It also presents more advanced, state-of-the-art topics such as finite-element reliability methods, stochastic structural dynamics, reliability-based optimal design, and Bayesian networks. A wealth of well-designed examples connect theory with practice, with simple examples demonstrating mathematical concepts and larger examples demonstrating their applications. End-of-chapter homework problems are included throughout. Including all necessary background material from probability theory, and accompanied online by a solutions manual and PowerPoint slides for instructors, this is the ideal text for senior undergraduate and graduate students taking courses on structural and system reliability in departments of civil, environmental and mechanical engineering.

Recenzii

'This textbook is invaluable to all concerned with structural and system reliability analysis. Providing a modern, rigorous, and comprehensive treatment of the theory and practice, it is a must-read for students, scholars, and practitioners learning, researching, or practicing in this field.' Dan M. Frangopol, Lehigh University
'This book is a welcome addition to the literature on structural reliability, which in recent decades has become essential to structural engineering practice. Authored by a leading international contributor to the mathematical foundations of structural reliability, much of the coverage has been informed by his own research and teaching. Readers wanting a comprehensive overview of the field, with its diverse problems, applications, and challenges, will find this volume indispensable for their technical libraries.' Bruce R. Ellingwood, Colorado State University
'This monograph is a manifest of the impressive contributions of the author and his students to the philosophy and the computationally practicable methods of first- and second-order structural reliability evaluation, necessarily resting on a Bayesian interpretation of probability applied to any type of uncertainty. The history of the field is fairly described, along with the step-by-step unfolding of the theory. The large number of examples and problems makes the book well suited for self-study.' Ove Ditlevsen, Technical University of Denmark
'The long-awaited textbook from one of the great teachers of structural reliability and stochastic mechanics! Professor Der Kiureghian wrote a book that is comprehensive and thorough, but also easily accessible to those new to the field. It is already a classic and an invaluable source for all students, researchers, and practitioners of structural reliability methods.' Daniel Straub, Technical University of Munich
'Professor Der Kiureghian has been one of the fathers of structural and system reliability analysis since the early 1980s and has devoted his entire career to research and education on this topic. No need to say that this book has been expected for a long time by the community! In this textbook, the reader will find elements of probability theory and the basics on structural reliability analysis (FORM/SORM, simulation methods, reliability updating, systems analysis), as well as state-of-the-art methods in stochastic structural dynamics, reliability-based design optimization and more, making it a must-have both for graduate students in engineering, researchers, and practitioners in the field. The crystal-clear writing style and the numerous exercises provided in each chapter make it the perfect reference for teaching.' Bruno Sudret, ETH Zurich
