About the Book

Focussing on structural reliability methods, reliability-based optimization, structural system reliability and risk analysis, lifetime performance and various applications in civil engineering. Invaluable to all concerned with structural system reliability and optimization, especially students, engineers, and workers in research and development.

Table of Contents:
Preface Keynote Papers Optimization and reliability problems in structural design of wind turbines Life-cycle performance and cost analysis of bridge network considering seismic risk Exchangeable condition states and Bayesian reliability updating Technical Contributions Practical assessments of risk and its uncertainty Sampling strategies to detect threshold excursions in random fields Role of uncertainties in the lifetime performance of concrete structures Lifetime optimization of deteriorating structures Seismic reliability functions for complex systems based on a secant-stiffness reduction index Redundancy and robustness of structures: A retrospective Case study of a hands-on inspection for optimal maintenance planning for railway bridges Condition rating methodology on RC bridges with chloride induced deterioration A new performance-based maintenance approach for infrastructures Earthquake-proof reliability-based design for steel rigid-frame piers of highway bridges Effect of dynamic wheel loads on fatigue performance of RC slabs Effect of uncertainty in cross-sectional property on reliability-based topology optimization of frame structures The applications of the third-order normal polynomial to structural reliability assessment Bridge live load effects based on statistics of extremes using on-site load monitoring Non-Gaussianity of structural resistance in the directional simulation in load space Optimal strengthening of RC bridges with degradation in safety due to chloride induced deterioration Evaluation of seismic performance of highway bridge system by Multi-State System approach Optimal condition control of systems comprised of multiple homogeneous components An investigation on story failure modes of frame structures Elasto-plastic response of steel bridge pier base joint under seismic loading Modelling the loss of steel-concrete bonds in corroded reinforced concrete beams Random vibrations and peak response of a shear beam under high frequency seismic effects Case studies on determination of load and resistance factors by method of moments A method for computing reliability bound of series structural systems Author index
