Course detail
Analysis, assessment and management of risks of technical systems
ÚSI-RTAPOAcad. year: 2021/2022
The course “Analysis, assessment and management of risks in technical systems” will be provided by the Faculty of Civil Engineering and the Faculty of Chemistry. It covers the following topics: modelling of the properties of load-bearing structures, consideration of the randomness of input parameters when designing a structure; impact loading, the importance of risk analysis for accident and crisis situations affecting technical systems; methods of risk analysis and their application; algorithms for the assessment and evaluation of technical risks, the modelling of fire propagation in buildings. The relationship between risk analysis and the analysis of available means.
