Description
Springer Reliability-based Structural Design by Seung-Kyum Choi, Ramana Grandhi, Robert A. Canfield
This book provides readers with an understanding of the fundamentals and applications of structural reliability, stochastic finite element method, reliability analysis via stochastic expansion, and optimization under uncertainty. It examines the use of stochastic expansions, including polynomial chaos expansion and Karhunen-Loeve expansion for the reliability analysis of practical engineering problems._x000D_ Table of contents : - _x000D_
