Course Aims

This course aims to present the mathematical modelling and system simulation methods for evaluating, managing and controlling the reliability, safety and risk of complex engineering systems such as the nuclear systems. The objective is to provide the students with the adequate tools for handling with scientific rigor the complexities and uncertainties associated to the problem. Previous knowledge on basic probability theory and statistics is helpful.
The expertise offered is part of the background knowledge of safety, reliability and risk analysts, operators and managers, in the industrial sector, including in particular nuclear.
Practical examples and numerical exercises will be provided in support to the comprehension of the material covered in class.
