Book excerpt: 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

Book excerpt: The proceedings contain lectures and short papers presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on »Reliability Theory and Its Application in Structural and Soil Me chanics», Bornholm, Denmark, August 31 -September 9,1982. The proceedings are organized in two parts. The first part contains 12 papers by the invited lecturers and the second part contains 23 papers by participants plus one paper from an invited lecturer (la~e arrival). The Institute dealt with specific topics on application of modem reliability theories in structural engineering and soil mechanics. Both fundamental theory and more ad vanced theory were covered. Lecture courses were followed by tutorial and summary discussions with active participation of those attending the Institute. Special lectures of topical subjects were given by a number of invited speake~, leading to plenary dis cussions and summary statements on important aspects of application of modem .re liability theory in structural engineering and soil mechanics. A great number of the participants presented brief reports of their own research activities.

This book was released on 1997-07-16 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the greatest problems in engineering is reliability. The performance of all machinery degrades over time and unless counteraction is taken at some point, any system will eventually fail. Once a system fails there are a number of possible solutions; the mathematical and statistical measurement and analysis of these solutions forms the mathematical theory of reliability. The aim of the authors is to concentrate on aspects of particular importance in the mathematical theory of reliability of time dependent systems rather than give a general overview. Particular emphasis is placed on fault tree analysis, Monte Carlo methods and importance measures. This book will be of particular interest to applied researchers and engineers working in areas where reliability is crucial. Contents Introduction, Markov and Semi-Markov models as a basis for the mathematical analysis of system reliability, methods for investigating homogeneous and non-homogeneous point processes (event flows), fault trees ? the current state of research, theory of redundant systems, Monte Carlo methods, reliability analysis using perturbation methods, stiff processes in reliability analysis, variance reduction methods, analytical-statistical methods for rapid simulation of repairable systems with structure redundancy, measures of reliability importance of components, index.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides structural reliability and design students with fundamental knowledge in structural reliability, as well as an overview of the latest developments in the field of reliability engineering. It addresses the mathematical formulation of analytical tools for structural reliability assessment. This book offers an accessible introduction to structural reliability assessment and a solid foundation for problem-solving. It introduces the topic and background, before dealing with probability models for random variables. It then explores simulation techniques for single random variables, random vectors consisting of different variables, and stochastic processes. The book addresses analytical approaches for structural reliability assessment, including the reliability models for a single structure and those for multiple structures, as well as discussing the approaches for structural time-dependent reliability assessment in the presence of discrete and continuous load processes. This book delivers a timely and pedagogical textbook, including over 170 worked-through examples, detailed solutions, and analytical tools, making it of interest to a wide range of graduate students, researchers, and practitioners in the field of reliability engineering.
