书目名称 | Safety Factors and Reliability: Friends or Foes? | 编辑 | Isaac Elishakoff | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | Have you ever wondered where the safety factors come from? Whyis it that deterministic analysis has reached a very sophisticatedlevel, but in the end empirical factors are still needed? Is there away to select them, rather than assigning them arbitrarily as is oftendone? .This book clearly shows that safety factors are closely related withthe reliability of structures, giving yet another demonstration ofAlbert Einstein‘s maxim that "It is incomprehensible that Nature iscomprehensible". The book shows that the safety factors are much morecomprehensible if they are seen in a probabilistic context. Severaldefinitions of the safety factors are given, analytical results oninsightful numbers are presented, nonprobabilistic safety factors areshown, as well as their estimates derived by the inequalities ofBienayme, Markov, Chebushev and Camp-Meidell. A special chapter isdevoted to important contributions by Japanese experts. .This volume will help to critically re-think the issue of safetyfactors, which can create a false feeling of security. Thedeterministic paradigm can be enhanced by incorporating probabilisticconcepts wisely where they are needed without treating all variablesas probab | 出版日期 | Book 2004 | 关键词 | beam; modeling; stress; structure; uncertainty | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4020-2131-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-90-481-6500-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4020-2131-2 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2004 |
