Books by Achintya (University of Arizona) Haldar

The first complete guide to using the Stochastic Finite Element Method for reliability assessment Unlike other analytical reliability estimation techniques, the Stochastic Finite Element Method (SFEM) can be used for both implicit and explicit performance functions, making it a particularly powerful and robust tool for today's engineer.

Learn the tools to assess product reliability! Haldar and Mahadevan crystallize the research and experience of the last few decades into the most up--to--date book on risk--based design concepts in engineering available. The fundamentals of reliability and statistics necessary for risk--based engineering analysis and design are clearly presented.
