Contents:

Title page; Table of Contents; The work of professor Jan van Noortwijk (1961-2008): an overview; On some elicitation procedures for distributions with bounded support -- with applications in PERT; Finding proper non-informative priors for regression coefficients; Posterior predictions on river discharges; The lessons of New Orleans; Relative material loss: a maintenance inspection methodology for approximating material loss on in-service marine structures; Nonparametric predictive system reliability with all subsystems consisting of one type of component

Multi-criteria optimization of life-cycle performance of structural systems under uncertaintyModel based control at WWTP Westpoort; Modelling track geometry by a bivariate Gamma wear process, with application to maintenance; An adaptive condition-based maintenance policy with environmental factors; Derivation of a finite time expected cost model for a condition-based maintenance program; A discussion about historical developments in stochastic modeling of wear

Summary: The late professor J.M. van Noortwijk (1961-2008) worked to bridge the practice of mathematical modeling with solving complex problems in the field of civil engineering. He developed advanced probabilistic and statistical models and made these accessible to engineers working in such areas as structural reliability, hydraulic engineering and maintenance optimization. This book contains an overview of his work and a collection of twelve papers presented at the symposium held in his honor on November24, 2009, in Delft, the Netherlands. The topics covered by these contributions include the elicitation of experts' opinion, condition-based maintenance optimization using the gamma process, and the assessment and management of flood risks. They presen the latest developments by his peers in their respective fields.
