This book, specifically, examines the uncertainty of technological and industrial science. Uncertainty and Mechanics studies the concepts of mechanical design in an uncertain setting and explains engineering techniques for inventing cost-effective products. Though it references practical applications, this is a book about ideas and potential advances in mechanical science. 410 0$aMechanical engineering and solid mechanics series. 606 $aStructural analysis (Engineering) 606 $aStructural optimization 606 $aUncertainty (Information theory) 615 0$aStructural analysis (Engineering) 615 0$aStructural optimization. 615 0$aUncertainty (Information theory) 676 $a624.171 700 $aLemaire$b Maurice$0569910 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818908703321 996 $aMechanics and uncertainty$93982015 997 $aUNINA
