a priori probabilityIn this chapter, we first present the basic concepts of probability, along with the axioms of probability and their implications. Fundamentals of the probabilities of random events, including statistically﹊ndependent events and mutually exclusive events, are introduced. The focus ...
Thanks to Newton's laws, dropping a stone from a latitude of 10 m, the point of time of its impact on the ground is known before executing the experiment. Quantities in complex systems (such as stock...Franke, JürgenUniversity of KaiserslauternHrdle, Wolfgang...
LetA= a red ball is taken on the first draw andB= a red ball is taken on the second draw. The probability that the first draw is red isP(A) = 3/5. The probability that the second draw is red given the first draw is red isP(B|A) = 2/4 = ½. From Property 2a, we see ...
Probability is the measure of chance of occurrence of a particular event. The basic concept of probability is widely used in the field of hydrology and hydroclimatology due to its stochastic nature. The inferences like the expected frequency of events, p

interviews or math competitions. We should be able to work out these puzzles, or at least we should understand these solutions. To study probability in more depth, I strongly recommend the free course:Statistics 110: Probability, which has been taught at Harvard University by Professo...
Experimental evidence as well as observations show that the variables involved in the analysis and design of structural systems, such as environmental loading, strength of materials, etc., are random in nature. In order to describe their behavior, i.e...
