Description

This text presents key concepts of risk and reliability that apply to a wide array of problems in civil and environmental engineering. The book begin with an overview of the art of making decisions in the presence of uncertainty and then explains the fundamentals of probability. It then mentions various techniques used in probability distributions and parameter estimation. A third section considers different aspects of uncertainty analysis, especially risk analysis and risk management.
