Uncertainty in Engineering : Introduction to Methods and Applications, Paperback / softback Book

Uncertainty in Engineering : Introduction to Methods and Applications Paperback / softback

Edited by Louis J. M. Aslett, Frank P. A. Coolen, Jasper De Bock

Part of the SpringerBriefs in Statistics series

Paperback / softback

Description

This open access book provides an introduction to uncertainty quanti?cation in engineering.

Starting with preliminaries on Bayesian statistics and Monte Carlo methods, followed by material on imprecise probabilities, it then focuses on reliability theory and simulation methods for complex systems.

The ?nal two chapters discuss various aspects of aerospace engineering, considering stochastic model updating from an imprecise Bayesian perspective, and uncertainty quanti?cation for aerospace ?ight modelling. Written by experts in the subject, and based on lectures given at the Second Training School of the European Research and Training Network UTOPIAE (Uncertainty Treatment and Optimization in Aerospace Engineering), which took place at Durham University (United Kingdom) from 2 to 6 July 2018, the book offers an essential resource for students as well as scientists and practitioners.
