Da Ruan (ed.) Fuzzy systems and soft computing in nuclear engineering

Springer-Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, 2000. – 494 pp.
Fuzzy systems and soft computing are new computing techniques that are tolerant to imprecision, uncertainty and partial truths. Applications of these techniques in nuclear engineering present a tremendous challenge due to its strict nuclear safety regulation. The fields of nuclear engineering, fuzzy systems and soft computing have nevertheless matured considerably during the last decade.Preface. - DaRuan
