Cascading Disasters: Multiple Risk Reduction and Resilience
The connectedness and interdependency of modern society mean that, when disaster strikes, it is likely to involve cascading consequences. This... -
A Bayesian method for dam failure risk analysis using causal loop diagrams and word frequency analysis
Earthen dams are exposed to complex environments where their safety is often affected by multiple uncertain risks. A Bayesian network (BN) is often...
