Risk and Reliability: Coastal and Hydraulic Engineering sets out
the methods which are increasingly being required by Government
Agencies for river and sea defence design and flood defence system
management. And it shows how to describe uncertainty in the
performance of flood and erosion defences. It introduces the key
statistical concepts required for the implementation of a
reliability analysis, and the analytical and the numerical methods
are each described with worked examples. Example applications of
the methods are given to illustrate their advantages and
limitations, together with case studies drawn from the author's
experience of academia and consultancy. It draws together scattered
material and provides coastal and hydraulic engineers with an
accessible entry to reliability analysis and thence to the
cutting-edge literature. This book suits advanced undergraduates
and MSc students of flood and coastal defence. It also serves as a
helpful source of information for consultants, practitioners and
academics.
