A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
This chapter describes in clear, simple operational terms the numerical basis of how the characteristics of strength distributions (which are what is measured) can be used to infer the characteristics of populations of strength‐controlling flaws (which are usually not observed) through the choice of sample and component sizes (which are what can be controlled). This is reverse analysis and is focused on the answering the question “what can we learn?” This chapter is practical and the examples near‐ideal as they will be selected from published works to illustrate specific points. The terms and inter‐relationships defined in Chapter
will be used extensively. The analysis is applicable to all brittle components.
