ERBA (ESD.72) emphasizes three methodologies - reliability and probabilistic risk assessment (RPRA), decision analysis (DA), and cost-benefit analysis (CBA). In this class, the issues of interest are: the risks associated with large engineering projects such as nuclear power reactors, the International Space Station, and critical infrastructures; the development of new products; the design of processes and operations with environmental externalities; and infrastructure renewal projects.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:
"Can your country’s tax laws help you find true love? A research team based in Europe has found that a government’s tax scheme surrounding marriage could affect a couple’s decision to tie the knot. The majority of countries across the globe have a tax code that changes according to marital status -- usually in the form of either a tax penalty or tax bonus. With a penalty, a couple will end up paying more in taxes than two similarly compensated single individuals, and with a bonus, they will pay less. To get to the heart of whether the financial implications connected to such tax laws influence a couple’s desire to get married, the researchers applied a rigorous theoretical model they called the marriage proposal game. In the game, two potential spouses – Sam and Robin – can either get married, live together without formal marriage, or break up..."
The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.

This video lesson shows students that math can play a role in understanding how an infectious disease spreads and how it can be controlled. During this lesson, students will see and use both deterministic and probabilistic models and will learn by doing through role-playing exercises. The primary exercises between video segments of this lesson are class-intensive simulation games in which members of the class 'infect' each other under alternative math modeling assumptions about disease progression. Also there is an occasional class discussion and local discussion with nearby classmates.
