Reliability and Safety Engineering de Ajit Kumar Verma

Reliability and Safety Engineering: Springer Series in Reliability Engineering

Autor Ajit Kumar Verma, Srividya Ajit, Durga Rao Karanki
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 aug 2016
Reliability and safetyare core issues that must be addressed throughout the life cycle of engineeringsystems. Reliability and Safety Engineering presents an overview of the basicconcepts, together with simple and practical illustrations.
The authors presentreliability terminology in various engineering fields, viz., electronicsengineering, software engineering, mechanical engineering, structuralengineering and power systems engineering. The book describes the latestapplications in the area of probabilistic safety assessment, such as technicalspecification optimization, risk monitoring and risk informed in-serviceinspection. Reliability and safety studies must, inevitably, deal withuncertainty, so the book includes uncertainty propagation methods: Monte Carlosimulation, fuzzy arithmetic, Dempster-Shafer theory and probability bounds.Reliability and Safety Engineering also highlights advances in system reliabilityand safety assessment including dynamic system modeling and uncertaintymanagement. Case studies from typical nuclear power plants as well as fromstructural, software and electronic systems are also discussed.
Reliability and SafetyEngineering combines discussions of theexisting literature on basic conceptsand applications with state-of-the-art methods used in reliability and riskassessment of engineering systems. It is designed to assist practicingengineers, students and researchers in the areas of reliability engineering andrisk analysis.
