The areas covered include: design and product liability; availability, reliability and maintainability; assessment and management of risks to technical systems; health and the environment; and mathematical methods of reliability and statistical analysis of data.
The organization of the book closely follows the sessions of the conference with each of the three volumes containing papers from two parallel sessions, comprising a total of 270 papers by authors from 35 countries.
Volume 1: Risk Based Regulations. Human Reliability. Operational Errors and Support Systems. Safety Critical Systems. Software Reliability. PSA Applications. Safety of Nuclear Waste Disposal. Industrial Safety. Modelling Physical Phenomena. Pipeline Safety.
Volume 2: Offshore Safety. Maritime Safety. Aviation Safety. Automobile Reliability. Tools and QRA Applications. Optimisation of Structural Systems. Simulation in Structural Reliability. Fire Safety. Fatigue Reliability. Seismic Risk and Concrete Structures.
Volume 3: Uncertainty Modelling. Maintenance Optimisation. Risk Based Maintainance. Data Analysis. Mathematical Methods in Reliability. Fault Tree Analysis. Semi-Markov Analysis. Reliability of Degrading Systems. Dependability of Robot Systems. Reliability in Design.
