What are the common pitfalls and mistakes when assessing the trustworthiness of computed information, and how can they be avoided?\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhenever numerical simulation is employed in connection with engineering decision-making, there is an implied expectation of reliability: one cannot base decisions on computed information without believing that information is reliable enough to support those decisions. Using mathematical models to show the reliability of computer-generated information is an essential part of any modelling effort.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGiving users of finite element analysis (FEA) software an introduction to verification and validation procedures, this book thoroughly covers the fundamentals of assuring reliability in numerical simulation.
