USING PHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS, SENSORY EVALUATIONS AND EXPERT JUDGEMENTS IN A DAM ASSESSMENT SUPPORT SYSTEM

Corinne Curt, Aurélie Talon, Gilles Mauris
  • Abstract:
    In engineering system control, human beings can play various key roles in particular concerning measurement, global assessment and decision. It is recognised that in such complex systems many involved variables are evaluated with uncertainty. In this paper, we used a possibility theory based approach to formalise all the different uncertain pieces of information. An applicative example concerning the safety assessment of dams is presented.
