A SYSTEMS RELIABILITY APPROACH TO MODELING OPERATIONAL RISKS IN COMPLEX ENGINEERED SYSTEMS
… the cause of many serious accidents in hydrosystems engineering has shifted from natural causes to human and technology related causes as these systems get more complex. While natural disasters still account for a significant amount of human and material losses, man-made disasters are …

The Evolutionary Design Model (EDM) for the design of complex engineered systems : Masdar City as a case study
… Model (EDM) that would enhance the design of complex systems through an efficient process. The framework proposed is generic and suggests a group of systematic methodologies that eventually lead to a fully realized and integrated design model. Within this model, complexities of the design are …

Design of Joint Verification-Correction Strategies for Engineered Systems
… is a critical process in the development of engineered systems. Engineers gain confidence in the correct functionality of the system by executing system verification. Traditionally, system verification is implemented by conducting a verification strategy (VS) consisting of verification …

System interfaces to facilitate follow-up pharmaceutical care in the United States
System interfaces are crucial in complex engineered systems but are understudied in follow-up pharmaceutical care. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a working definition of the concept "system interface" within the context of follow-up pharmaceutical care in the US Healthcare System. To …

A Data Analytics Framework for Regional Voltage Control
… power grids are some of the largest and most complex engineered systems. Due to economic competition and deregulation, the power systems are operated closer their security limit. When the system is operating under a heavy loading condition, the unstable voltage condition may cause a cascading …

Socio-cognitive analysis of engineering systems design : shared knowledge, process, and product
… but seldom stated premise that the design of complex engineered systems is done by people -- each with their own knowledge, thoughts, and views about the system being designed. To understand the implications of this social dimension, the Integrated Concurrent Engineering (ICE) environment, a …

Statistical Modeling, Learning and Computing for Stochastic Dynamics of Complex Systems
… as input to model the underlying behavior of complex engineered systems and phenomenons if appropriate algorithms with well-defined assumptions are developed. This dissertation is comprised of the research work to show the applicability of SOE data when fed into proposed tailored algorithms. …

Application of unified invariants for cyber physical systems in smart grids
<p>Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are complex engineered systems which consist of physical components with an underlying cyber network. The three main components of a cyber-physical System are: physical system, networking and communications element and a distributed cyber system. The primary …

Structural complexity and its implications for design of cyber-physical systems
… modern era software-enabled, electro-mechanical systems are becoming more complex as we demand more performance and better lifecycle properties (e.g. robustness) from them. As a consequence system development projects are becoming increasingly challenging and are falling behind in terms of …
