Product Description
Apply the principles of probability and statistics to realistic engineering problems
The easiest and most effective way to learn the principles of probabilistic modeling and statistical inference is to apply those principles to a variety of applications. That's why Ang and Tang's Second Edition of Probability Concepts in Engineering (previously titled Probability Concepts in Engineering Planning and Design) explains concepts and methods using a wide range of problems related to engineering and the physical sciences, particularly civil and environmental engineering.
Now extensively revised with new illustrative problems and new and expanded topics, this Second Edition will help you develop a thorough understanding of probability and statistics and the ability to formulate and solve real-world problems in engineering. The authors present each basic principle using different examples, and give you the opportunity to enhance your understanding with practice problems. The text is ideally suited for students, as well as those wishing to learn and apply the principles and tools of statistics and probability through self-study.
Key Features in this 2nd Edition:
* A new chapter (Chapter 5) covers Computer-Based Numerical and Simulation Methods in Probability, to extend and expand the analytical methods to more complex engineering problems.
* New and expanded coverage includes distribution of extreme values (Chapter 3), the Anderson-Darling method for goodness-of-fit test (Chapter 6), hypothesis testing (Chapter 6), the determination of confidence intervals in linear regression (Chapter 8), and Bayesian regression and correlation analyses (Chapter 9).
* Many new exercise problems in each chapter help you develop a working knowledge of concepts and methods.
* Provides a wide variety of examples, including many new to this edition, to help you learn and understand specific concepts.
* Illustrates the formulation and solution of engineering-type probabilistic problems through computer-based methods, including developing computer codes using commercial software such as MATLAB and MATHCAD.
* Introduces and develops analytical probabilistic models and shows how to formulate engineering problems under uncertainty, and provides the fundamentals for quantitative risk assessment.

Controlled Structures with Electromechanical and Fiber-Optical Sensors
Controlled Structures with Electromechanical and Fiber-Optical Sensors

Publisher: Nova Science Publishers Inc
The content of the book is a continuation of the previous book that was published in Poland in 2001, co-author Professor Andrzej Flaga. It refers to regulation of voltages and deformations in combined structures (in constructions with cables or guy ropes) and is provided with our copyright. The spring was used as the sensor of deformation and the beam (cantilever and double-support) in combined construction was reviewed. Now in this book, framed and spatial combined structures with application electromechanical and fiber-optic sensors are considered.The control behavior of constructions at all phases of their life cycle and prior preventive alarm without participation of the person is an actual problem as well as the considerable achievement of technical development and new technologies.

Hi to all. I'm Majkyy. I'm structural engineer and I'm interested in strut and tie model and shear design of concrete structures. I speak english not soo good, but I try to learn it. If somebody is interested in the same topic, we can try to discuss some problems etc.
