Simulation-Based Reliability Assessment for Structural Engineers
Simulation-Based Reliability Assessment for Structural Engineers provides an overview of the basic concepts in structural reliability and introduces an alternative based on direct Monte Carlo simulation techniques, on parameters-generated histograms, and on available personal computers. This approach is a powerful tool that allows (in accordance with the Limit States Design philosophy) one to explore the effect of variables and uncertainty on design decisions. This new book also discusses single- and multi-component load effects and explores combinations of such effects. Limiting values are defined and applied to reliability assessments with respect to carrying capacity and serviceability st...

This work examines the changes in health care in the former German Democratic Republic, the Czech and Slovak Republics, Hungary and Poland. The book consists of two parts - the first containing a general description and analysis of the health care systems of the countries studied. The appraisal of what has been achieved is made possible by comparison with the state of the health care structure before the collapse of communist rule. In the second part, a more detailed description of developments is given.
