Download or read book New Trends in System Reliability Evaluation written by K.B. Misra and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 732 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of system reliability evaluation has never been so extensively and incisively discussed as in the present volume. The book fills a gap in the existing literature on the subject by highlighting the shortcomings of the current state-of-the-art and focusing on on-going efforts aimed at seeking better models, improved solutions and alternative approaches to the problem of system reliability evaluation. The book's foremost objective is to provide an insight into developments that are likely to revolutionize the art and science in the near future. At the same time it will help serve as a benchmark for the reader not only to understand and appreciate the newer developments but to profitably guide him in reorienting his efforts. This book will be valuable for people working in various industries, research organizations, particularly in electrical and electronics, defence, nuclear, chemical, space and communciation systems. It will also be useful for serious-minded students, teachers, and for the laboratories of educational institutions.

Download or read book New Risks Issues and Management written by Louis A. Cox and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the proceedings of the 1986 annual meeting and conference of the Society for Risk Analysis. It provides a detailed view of both mature disciplines and emerging areas within the fields of health, safety, and environmental risk analysis as they existed in 1986. In selecting and organizing topics for this conference, we sought both (i) to identify and include new ideas and application areas that would be of lasting interest to risk analysts and to users of risk analysis results, and (ii) to include innovative methods and applications in established areas of risk analysis. In the three years since the conference, many of the topics presented there for the first time to a broad risk analysis audience have become well developed-and sometimes hotly debated-areas of applied risk research. Several, such as the public health hazards from indoor air pollutants, radon in the home, high-voltage electric fields, and the AIDS epidemic, have been the subjects of headlines since 1986. Older areas, such as hazardous waste site ranking and remediation, air emissions dispersion modeling and exposure assessment, transportation safety, seismic and nuclear risk assessment, and occupational safety in the chemical industry, have continued to receive new treatments and to benefit from advances in quantitative risk assessment methods, as documented in the theoretical and methodological papers in this volume. A theme of the meeting was the importance of new technologies and the new and uncertain risks that they create.

Download or read book Fuzzy Systems for Management written by Kiyoji Asai and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Management organizations for companies and government must respond in a prompt and flexible manner to the large variety of frequently changing requirements of the modern market and society. Earlier management science methods like operations research and mathematical programming often took the approach of expressing problems in equations and solving them, but these tend to lack variety and flexibility and have taken form in which human beings supplement them. Various methods have been developed to systematize the parts that depend on human beings, improve the use of computers and make it possible for managers with little experience to use them. The fuzzy theory focuses on the general situation and generalization of the intelligent information processing of human beings and attempts to create models that simulate these.
