Artificial Intelligence and Expert Systems for Engineers details of AI-based methodology known as: Knowledge-Based Expert System (KBES); Design Synthesis, Design Critiquing, and Case-Based Reasoning. Case studies are provided with problems in design techniques to understand better about the model for solving the problem using the four methodologies in an integrated software environment.Throughout book, examples are given so that students and engineers can gain skills in the use of AI-based methodology for application to problems practical issues ranging from diagnosis to planning, design, and construction and manufacturing in various disciplines engineering.Artificial Intelligence and Expert Systems for Engineers is a must-have reference for students, teachers, research scholars, and professionals working in the field of civil engineering design on particularly engineering and design in general.
