Building Resilience into Risk Management

 

About BRIM

BRIM is a network that brings together academics, engineers and policy makers to develop a shared, multi-disciplinary vision of how to build resilience into networked risk management for highly complex engineered systems.

This network is led by Dr Guangtao Fu at the University of Exeter, supported by Professor Roy Kalawsky at Loughborough University and Dr Monica Rivas Casado at Cranfield University.

We are supported by a research grant from the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council as part of the Engineering Grand Challenge programme, and a number of industrial partners.

Network Themes

•  Risk Analytic Paradigm
•  Global systems science
•  Networked risks and tipping points
•  Design vs. operational resilience
•  Metrics and intervention strategies

Network Aim

To nurture the development of novel methodologies and tools of building resilience into networked risk management of critical infrastructure systems.

Network Activities

Conferences, Workshops and Seminars

We provide a range of mechanisms to help steer community efforts and develop new ideas.

For Researchers

Funding is available to facilitate pilot studies, hot topic workshops, staff exchanges and international collaborations.
