Risk and risk analysis in rock engineering
Tunnelling and Underground Space Technology, 1996Abstract Risk analysis and decision-making procedures are being applied to large engineering projects with increasing frequency. Risk analysis is a versatile tool in decision-making, whether the decisions are in the form of an engineering design, selecting particular construction procedures, or more general decisions made by private or public ...

An efficient risk analysis in requirement engineering
2012 Nirma University International Conference on Engineering (NUiCONE), 2012The requirement engineering is one of the emerging sections in software engineering. The main factors that a requirement engineering process considers are business requirements and user requirements and provide solutions according to it. We have proposed a requirement engineering model based on the Tropos goal model.

Driftwood: Risk Analysis and Engineering Measures
Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, 2013AbstractTransported driftwood and woody debris during floods may lead to accumulations and blockages at river bridges or weirs, and can result in excessive scour or an increase in backwater that may lead to flooding of the nearby areas. Although driftwood-related problems occur predominantly in forested mountainous regions, driftwood may eventually ...

Engineering seismic risk analysis
Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 1968Abstract This paper introduces a method for the evaluation of the seismic risk at the site of an engineering project. The results are in terms of a ground motion parameter (such as peak acceleration) versus average return period. The method incorporates the influence of all potential sources of earthquakes and the average activity rates ...
