By: Attoh-Okine, Nii O [author].
Publisher: New York : Cambridge University Press, 2016Description: xiii, 159 pages : illustrations ; 27 cm.Content type: text Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9780521193498.Subject(s): Reliability (Engineering)Genre/Form: Print books.
Contents:
1. Introduction -- 2. Infrastructure systems -- 3. Disruptions -- 4. Graph and networks -- 5. Big data and resilience engineering -- 6. Graphical models -- 7. Belief functions -- 8. Tensors applications -- 9. Resilience index -- Selected examples -- 10. Epilogue
Summary: "Resilience Engineering: Models and Analysis was written for readers who have backgrounds in probability. It is suitable for practicing engineers, analysts, and researchers. The text presents a general examination of resilience analyses as applied to infrastructure and energy systems at a 'system of systems' level. The book offers a balanced mix of background, theory, and applications tailored for practitioners, along with examples to illustrate key computational algorithms, end-of-chapter exercises and references, and case studies"--
