Description: This course explores methods for practical risk-based decision support, particularly for infrastructure systems. Uncertainty quantification (UQ) to external events including natural hazards is at the core of risk-informed design, operation, and mitigation actions. UQ also guides engineering practice and enables code developments. The course emphasizes decision theory, Bayesian approaches, risk analysis tools, and infrastructure safety. Cross-list: CEVE 313.
