Dependability of Engineering Systems

Download or read book Dependability of Engineering Systems written by Jovan M. Nahman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2002 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book offers a sound, easily readable theoretical back- ground for dependability prediction and analysis of enginee- ring systems. The book bridges the gap between the real life dependability problems and very sophisticated and highly specialized books in this field. It is addressed to a broad readership including practicing engineers, reliability ana- lysts and postgraduate students of engineering faculties. The professionals in the field may also find some new mate- rial that is not covered in available textbooks such as fuz- zy logic evaluation of dependability performance, uncertain- ty assessment, open loop sequential analysis of discrete state stochastic processes, approximate solving of Markov systems.
