Section Title:
Advanced Risk Analysis
Section Info:
This course offers a comprehensive and in-depth review of advanced methods for Probabilistic Risk Analysis (PRA). Topics include: fundamental theories of risk modeling, risk scenario development, model uncertainty, parameter uncertainty, uncertainty propagation (e.g. Method of Moment, Monte Carlo), Bayesian updating, data analysis, hardware reliability, human error modeling, risk importance ranking, precursor analysis, expert elicitation and aggregation, and next generation PRA methods and tools. Risk analysis software will be used for homework and class projects. While the examples will primarily focus on the nuclear power domain, the course will also cover current advancements in risk analysis of other complex systems (e.g. space, aviation, oil and gas).
Restriction(s):
Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
