Description
STRUCTURAL RELIABILITY Discover a new and innovative approach to structural reliability from two authoritative and accomplished authorsThe subject of structural reliability, which deals with the problems of evaluating the safety and risk posed by a wide variety of structures, has grown rapidly over the last four decades. And while the First-Order Reliability Method is principally used by most textbooks on this subject, other approaches have identified some of the limitations of that method. In Structural Reliability: Approaches from Perspectives of Statistical Moments, accomplished engineers and authors Yan-Gang Zhao and Dr. Zhao-Hui Lu, deliver a concise and insightful exploration of an alternative and innovative approach to structural reliability. Called the Methods of Moment, the authors approach is based on the information of statistical moments of basic random variables and the performance function. The Methods of Moment approach facilitates -structural reliability analysis and reliability-based design and can be extended to other engineering disciplines, yielding further insights into challenging problems involving -randomness. Readers will also benefit from the inclusion of:A thorough introduction to the measures of structural safety, including uncertainties in structural design, deterministic measures of safety, and probabilistic measures of safetyAn exploration of the fundamentals of structural reliability theory, including the performance function and failure probabilityA practical discussion of moment evaluation for performance functions, including moment computation for both explicit and implicit performance functionsA concise treatment of direct methods of moment, including the third- and fourth-moment reliability methodsPerfect for professors, researchers, and graduate students in civil engineering, Structural Reliability: Approaches from Perspectives of Statistical Moments will also earn a place in the libraries of professionals and students working or studying in mechanical engineering, aerospace and aeronautics engineering, marine and offshore engineering, ship engineering, and applied mechanics.
