Reliability and Risk Acceptance Criteria for Civil Engineering Structures

Transactions of the VŠB: Technical University of Ostrava, Civil Engineering Series, 2016
The specification of risk and reliability acceptance criteria is a key issue of reliability verifications of new and existing structures. Current target reliability levels in standards appear to have considerable scatter.

Young children’s use of probabilistic reliability and base-rates in decision-making

PLoS ONE, 2022
Children are skilled reasoners who readily use causal, reliability, and base-rate (i.e., prior probability) information in their decisions. Though these abilities are typically studied in isolation, children often must consider multiple pieces of ...
