Book Description
This book presents results of projects carried out by both scientific and industry researchers into the techniques to help in maintenance, control, supervision and security of systems, taking into account the technical environmental and human factors.
This work is supported by the Scientific Group GIS 3SGS. It is a collaborative work from 13 partners (academic and industrial) who have come together to deal with security problems. The problems and techniques discussed mainly focus on stochastic and dynamic modeling, maintenance, forecasting, diagnosis, reliability, performance, organizational, human and environmental factors, uncertainty and experience feedback.
Editorial Reviews
Review
“This is therefore a helpful contribution to the literature and a book that those in the nuclear industry in particular should have on their bookshelves.” (Industrial Systems and Control Ltd, 1 March 2013)
