Riassunto

In diesem Band geht es darum, mit mathematischen Methoden vorherzusagen, wie zuverlässig ein bestimmtes Bauwerk ist, ob es etwa einem Sturm oder einem Erdbeben standhalten wird. Zur Anwendung kommen vor allem stochastische Finite-Elemente-Verfahren. Zum Nachlesen im Berufsalltag ebenso geeignet wie als Studienbegleiter in höheren Semestern! (05/00)

The first complete guide to using the Stochastic Finite Element Method for reliability assessment

Unlike other analytical reliability estimation techniques, the Stochastic Finite Element Method (SFEM) can be used for both implicit and explicit performance functions, making it a particularly powerful and robust tool for today's engineer. This book, written by two pioneers in SFEM-based methodologies, shows how to use SFEM for the reliability analysis of a wide range of structures.

It begins by reviewing essential risk concepts, currently available risk evaluation procedures, and the use of analytical and sampling methods in estimating risk. Next, it introduces SFEM evaluation procedures, with detailed coverage of displacement-based and stress-based deterministic finite element approaches. Linear, nonlinear, static, and dynamic problems are considered separately to demonstrate the robustness of the methods. The risk or reliability estimation procedure for each case is presented in different chapters, with theory complemented by a useful series of examples.

Integrating advanced concepts in risk-based design, finite elements, and mechanics, Reliability Assessment Using Stochastic Finite Element Analysis is vital reading for engineering professionals and students in all areas of the field.
