CVE 505 - Reliability

[4 credit(s)]

Includes a basic review of probability and statistics. Aspects of Monte Carlo simulation are discussed as it relates to reliability analysis and parameter estimation. Concepts of Weibull analysis and weakest link theory will be thoroughly discussed along with other system reliability topics. Standard techniques to estimate statistical parameters are presented. Limit state functions, the reliability index, and approximate methods are discussed. Code provisions based on probabilistic methods will be presented.
