Managing safety of diverse systems requires decision-making under uncertainties and risks. Such systems are typically characterized by spatio-temporal heterogeneities, inter-dependencies, externalities, endogenous risks, discontinuities, irreversibility, practically irreducible uncertainties,...

General Remarks on Robust Solutions -- Modeling of Uncertainty and Probabilistic Issues -- On Joint Modelling of Random Uncertainty and Fuzzy Imprecision -- On the Approximation of a Discrete Multivariate Probability Distribution Using the New Concept of -Cherry Junction Tree -- Robust Solutions...

Ongoing global changes pose fundamentally new scientific problems requiring new concepts and tools. A key issue concerns a vast variety of practically irreducible uncertainties, which challenge traditional models and require new concepts and analytical tools. Uncertainty can dominate, as in the...
