DESCRIPTION:
"Book Review" according to TarMak. the book is a compilation of papers submitted in ASCE. It is useful to help understand reliability and uncertainty for hydraulic design.
Decades ago a quantitative evaluation of the reliability of structures was not possible. The report ends with a reprint of an article by Vrijling on the Eastern Scheldt Storm Surge Barrier of the Delta Project in the Netherlands and the use of reliability analysis for sewer design.. Since application of reliability analysis to hydraulic engineering covers a wide scope of sub-fields, this report, "Reliability and Uncertainty Analyses in Hydraulic Design", presents a glimpse of some of the topics pertinent to the design and safety of hydraulic structures. The first four pa
