内容説明

Simulation-Based Reliability Assessment for Structural Engineers provides an overview of the basic concepts in structural reliability and introduces an alternative based on direct Monte Carlo simulation techniques, on parameters-generated histograms, and on available personal computers. This approach is a powerful tool that allows (in accordance with the Limit States Design philosophy) one to explore the effect of variables and uncertainty on design decisions. This new book also discusses single- and multi-component load effects and explores combinations of such effects. Limiting values are defined and applied to reliability assessments with respect to carrying capacity and serviceability states. Examples that clearly illustrate the application of simulation techniques are provided, and the tremendous potential of these techniques for use in design is reviewed. Also included are carefully-selected examples that allow the reader to compare the deterministic Allowable Stress Design (ASD), the semi-probabilistic Partial Factors Design (LRFD), and the probabilistic Simulation-Based Reliability Assessment (SBRA) concept. Simulation-Based Reliability Assessment for Structural Engineers includes a computer diskette that contains five user-friendly computer programs (M-Star, AntHill, ResCom, LoadCom, and DamAc) capable of calculating load effect combinations, resistance of structural components, and probability of failure. The use of these programs is demonstrated in two hundred well-designed and realistic examples that clearly identify the range of problems to which simulation-based reliability assessments can be applied.
