RIES 8730 - Critical Resilient Infrast Sys

Institution:

Clemson University

Subject:

Resil Infrastr & Env Sys

Description:

This course focuses on modeling and simulation of infrastructure systems, such as electric power networks, oil and gas pipelines, water and wastewater treatment and distribution systems, communications networks, transportation facilities and networks, and the collections of buildings that make up urban and rural communities. Infrastructure systems are essential components of society: they bring light and heat, they deliver seed to farmers and bring produce back to home tables, and they deliver public safety and public health services, among many others. Infrastructure systems are also interdependent, with one system depending to some degree on the outputs of another system. Thus, the failure of one infrastructure system can seriously affect the proper functioning of another. Under the right circumstances, these interdependencies could also lead to beneficial redundancies and help increase the resilience of a system.
