• Understanding Compound, Interconnected, Interacting, and Cascading Risks: A Holistic Framework (2018, background): “At the same time, it has been suggested that there is a tendency in the engineering community to associate the definition of risk with the quantification of probabilities, but in order to be effective, the analysis of systemic accidents and unexpected events must address also uncertainties and their”
• On Some Recent Definitions and Analysis Frameworks for Risk, Vulnerability, and Resilience (2011, background): “abilities are based on could be poor and include assumptions “hiding” or “camouflaging” uncertainties.(5,9,10) This motivates the broader uncertainty perspective adopted in Section 3.”
• Maritime transportation risk analysis: Review and analysis in light of some foundational issues (2015, background): “This would in principle require that a quantitative uncertainty measure is defined about all parameters and structural assumptions of the entire model, which are propagated over the entire model space [123].”
