Description for Bounding Uncertainty in Civil Engineering
Paperback. Taking an engineering approach rather than a mathematical one, this book presents the basic ideas and methods of Random Sets in Civil Engineering with the aid of simple worked-out examples and suggested problems. It offers a gentle introduction to the subject. Num Pages: 332 pages, biography. BIC Classification: RBGL; TGB; TN. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 235 x 155 x 18. Weight in Grams: 516.
Taking an engineering, rather than a mathematical, approach, Bounding uncertainty in Civil Engineering - Theoretical Background deals with the mathematical theories that use convex sets of probability distributions to describe the input data and/or the final response of systems. The particular point of view of the authors is centered on the applications to civil engineering problems, and the theory of random sets has been adopted as a basic and relatively simple model. However, the authors have tried to elucidate its connections to the more general theory of imprecise probabilities, Choquet capacities, fuzzy sets, p-boxes, convex sets of parametric probability distributions, ...
