Forming an ideal companion volume to Aven's previous Wiley text Foundations of Risk Analysis, it provides clear recommendations and guidance in the planning, execution anduse of risk analysis.   This new edition presents recent developments related to risk conceptualization, focusing on related issues on risk assessment and their application. New examples are also featured to clarify the reader's understanding in the application of risk analysis and the risk analysis process.     Key features: Fully updated to include recent developments related to risk conceptualization and related issues on risk assessments and their applications. Emphasizes the decision making context of risk analysis rather than just computing probabilities Demonstrates how to carry out predictive risk analysis using a variety of case studies and examples. Written by an experienced expert in the field, in a style suitable for both industrial and academic audiences.   This book is ideal for advanced undergraduates, graduates, analysts and researchers from statistics, engineering, finance, medicine and physical sciences. Managers facing decision making problems involving risk and uncertainty will also benefit from this book.Risk assessmentMathematical modelsRiskMathematical modelsUncertaintyMathematical modelsAnalyse des risquesfreECLASrisk managementengeurovocModèles mathématiquesfreECLASRisk assessmentMathematical models.RiskMathematical models.UncertaintyMathematical models.Analyse des risquesrisk managementModèles mathématiques338.5Aven Terje44036MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910830233303321Risk analysis835661UNINA02227nam 2200565 450 991081786090332120230617022303.01-4766-0698-6(CKB)2670000000591596(EBL)1931489(SSID)ssj0001421544(PQKBManifestationID)12520512(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001421544(PQKBWorkID)11423922(PQKB)10262410(MiAaPQ)EBC1931489(EXLCZ)99267000000059159620050525h20052005 uy| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrThe railroad in American fiction an annotated bibliography /Grant BurnsJefferson, North Carolina :McFarland & Company,[2005]©20051 online resource (292 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-7864-2379-X 1-322-87152-3 Includes bibliographical references and indexes.Cover; Acknowledgments; Contents; Preface; Introduction; The Bibliography; Appendix: Publications by Decade; Title Index; Subject Index"This annotated bibliography lists and discusses works from the 1840s to the 21st century.
