Overview

This advanced engineering text describes methods developed to deal with stochastic aspects of structural behavior, providing a framework for evaluating, comparing, and combining stochastic effects. Topics include second-moment reliability index methods; first-order reliability methods for computation of failure probabilities; identification of design parameters most affecting reliability; and more. 1986 edition.
