Research Project

Probabilistic Analysis of Large-scale Engineered Systems

The aim of the present project is to push the presently ongoing research in probabilistic analysis of large systems further, with special consideration of two interrelated problems; life cycle risk management of individual but large structures like bridges and tunnels and risk management of geographically distributed engineered systems, such as electricity distribution systems.

Teaching
