    Containing the papers of the 10th International Conference on Structural Safety and Reliability (ICOSSAR2009, Osaka, Japan),  this work covers safety and reliability of structures and systems in civil, marine, mechanical, transportation, and aerospace systems. A special focus is placed on advanced technologies, analytical and computational  risk analysis, probability-based design and regulations, smart systems and materials, life cycle cost analysis, damage assessment, social aspects, and commercial applications. Emerging concepts and novel applications of reliability principles in all types of structural systems and mechanical components are included.

    In addition to the text, all of the papers are included on a fully searchable CD-ROM.
