Synopsis
Best practice in civil engineering involves the use of modern statistical techniques, many of which are only described in the research literature or rather specialist books on specific themes. This book brings these techniques together in the context of civil engineering. The emphasis is on modeling and topics include random number generation, reliability and quality assurance, univariate and multivariate extreme value distributions, regression methods, Bayesian methods, time series analysis, Markov chains and stochastic dynamic programming, variograms and kriging, spectral analysis and wavelets, and design of experiments.

About the book >.>.> Civil engineers have always had to deal with uncertainty, but they are now expected to do so in more accountable ways. Probability theory provides a mathematical description of random variation, and enables us to make realistic risk assessments. Statistics is the analysis of data, and the subsequent fitting of probability models. Computers continue to push back the limits imposed by the arithmetic and, to some extent, the algebraic manipulation involved. This greatly increases the scope of feasible analyses. The range of applications within civil engineering is vast, and I have aimed to show this through practical examples. The book is structured around the main application areas, in the following way.
