内容概要

As any model is only an abstraction of
the real world, model uncertainty always exists. Ingeotechnical
engineering, the model uncertainty could be large. Lack of
knowledge about modeluncertainty may lead to unrealistic
predictions. When back analysis from observed performances,model
uncertainty is often mixed with parameter uncertainty and
observational uncertainty. Hence itis generally difficult to
isolate and characterize model uncertainty. This book introduces
the state-of-the-art theories and methodologies for geotechnical
model uncertainty characterization based on theBayesian theory,
including both rigorous solution and approximate but practical
solutions, where theeffects of parameter uncertainty and
observational uncertainty on model uncertainty characterizationare
appropriately addressed. The theories and methodologies are
illustrated in detail with variousgeotechnical problems. The book
will be of general interest to readers in the profession
andparticularly useful for those specializing in geotechnical
inverse analysis and geotechnical reliability.
