Modelling and Estimation of Damage in Structures is a comprehensiveguide to solving the type of modelling and estimation problems associated with the physics of structural damage.
* Provides a model-based approach to damage identification
* Presents an in-depth treatment of probability theory and random processes
* Covers both theory and algorithms for implementing maximum likelihood and Bayesian estimation approaches
* Includes experimental examples of all detection and identification approaches
* Provides a clear means by which acquired data can be used to make decisions regarding maintenance and usage of a structure

Unlike related books, this handbook brings together background material, derivations, and applications of differential entropy. The book first reviews probability theory as it enables an understanding of the core building block of entropy. The authors then carefully explain both discrete and differential entropy. They present detailed derivations of differential entropy for numerous probability models, discuss challenges with interpreting and deriving differential entropy, and show how differential entropy varies as a function of the model variance. They also explore the application of differential entropy in several areas.
