A Comprehensive Reliability Assessment Method for Existing Railway Bridges Based on Bayesian Theory

Simplified probabilistic non-linear assessment of existing railway bridges

Assessment, Reliability and Maintenance of Masonry Arch Railway Bridges in Europe

The main purpose of this paper is to give an overview on the state of the art of inspection, assessment and maintenance of masonry arch railway bridges by the presentation of the results of an ongoing international research project run by the International Union of Railways (UIC) with the participation of 14 railway administrations. The survey has shown that the European railways partaking in t...

Multi-state system reliability assessment based on Bayesian networks

This paper considers a problem of multi-state system reliability modelling and assessment. By using the advantages of uncertainty reasoning and figurative expression of Bayesian network, a new method of modelling and assessment of multi-state system reliability based on BN is proposed to determine the nodes of BN and the multiple states of components of system, and to give the probability of ea...

Fuzzy Bayesian system reliability assessment based on Pascal distribution

The main purpose of this paper is to provide a methodology for discussing the fuzzy. Bayesian system reliability from the fuzzy component reliabilities, actually we discuss on the Fuzzy Bayesian system reliability assessment based on Pascal distribution, because the data sometimes cannot be measured and recorded precisely. In order to apply the Bayesian approach, the fuzzy parameters are assume...

GUI Reliability Assessment based on Bayesian Network and Structural Profile

Graphical User Interfaces (GUI) is becoming increasingly important in the software field as it builds a friendly way between users and software through continuous interactions. A well-developed GUI is therefore an important factor of software quality. In particular, the reliability of GUIs is still on the way of development. Existing software reliability assessment techniques attempt to statist...
