Most industrial and natural materials exhibit a macroscopic
behaviour which results from the existence of microscale
inhomogeneities. The influence of such inhomogeneities is commonly
modelled using probabilistic methods. Most of the approaches to the
evaluation of the safety of structures according to probabilistic
criteria are somewhat scattered. This text attempts to present such
material in a coherent and up-to-date form, and also defines the
great tasks that must be tackled in coming years. The text is
suitable for engineers and researchers dealing with materials,
geotechnics, solid mechanics, soil mechanics, statistics and
stochastic processes. The expository nature of the book means that
no prior knowledge of statistics or probability is required. The
book aims to serve as an introduction to the nature of applied
statistics and stochastic modelling.
