Synopsis

A component will not be reliable unless it is designed with required reliability. Reliability-Based Mechanical Design uses the reliability to link all design parameters of a component together to form a limit state function for mechanical design. This design methodology uses the reliability to replace the factor of safety as a measure of the safe status of a component. The goal of this methodology is to design a mechanical component with required reliability and at the same time, quantitatively indicates the failure percentage of the component. Reliability-Based Mechanical Design consists of two separate books: Volume 1: Component under Static Load, and Volume 2: Component under Cyclic Load and Dimension Design with Required Reliability. This book is Reliability-Based Mechanical Design, Volume 2: Component under Cyclic Load and Dimension Design with Required Reliability. It begins with a systematic description of a cyclic load. Then, the books use two probabilistic fatigue theories to establish the limit state function of a component under cyclic load, and further to present how to calculate the reliability of a component under a cyclic loading spectrum. Finally, the book presents how to conduct dimension design of typical components such as bar, pin, shaft, beam under static load, or cyclic loading spectrum with required reliability. Now, the designed component will be reliable because it has been designed with the required reliability. The book presents many examples for each topic and provides a wide selection of exercise problems at the end of each chapter. This book is written as a textbook for senior mechanical engineering students after they study the course Design of Machine Elements or a similar course. This book is also a good reference for design engineers and presents design methods in such sufficient detail that those methods are readily used in the design.

From the Back Cover

This book asks anew whether there really was European integration before 1914. By focussing on economic integration, patents, international communication, social policy and plant protection, the authors re-evaluate European and international cooperation of the time. The authors show that European cooperation was not the result of intent, but of incentives. And while European cooperation was the result of national initiatives, national rules also were radically affected by international impulses.

The result is a book that achieves two things: offer stand-alone chapters that shed some light on specific developments and – these read altogether – develop a bigger picture.

Yaman Kouli is currently researcher at the Heinrich-Heine-University in Düsseldorf. From 2007 to 2010, he was a member of the graduate school "Archives-Might-Power" at the University of Bielefeld. In 2012, he received his PhD from Chemnitz University of Technology, where he was a research assistant until March 2018. From 2012 to 2013, he was also an A.SK-fellow at the Berlin Social Science Center. From 2018 to 2020, he was Feodor-Lynen-Fellow and received a scholarship from the Alexander von Humboldt-Foundation. From October 2019 on, he will assume his position as a research assistant at the Heinrich-Heine-University in Düsseldorf. His fields of expertise are Poland’s economic history during the 20th century, the knowledge-based economy and European integration.

Léonard Laborie has been a Research Fellow at the CNRS, UMR Sirice (Paris) since 2010. He received his PhD in contemporary history from Sorbonne University (2006). His research deals with the interactions between science, technology and diplomacy in the making of Europe since the 1850s, with a focus on communication infrastructures.
