2016 International Forum on Reliability Engineering and Risk Management

The forum discussed seismic and wind performance, life-cycle behavior and reliability analysis of engineering structures, including the effects of durability and corrosion on safety. Further topics included the relationship between microstructure and reliability, railway bridge reliability, and the performance assessment of concrete buildings.

Participation at the invitation of Professor Yan-Gang Zhao in the 2016 International Forum on Reliability Engineering and Risk Management, held at Central South University on 24–25 March 2016, included an invited presentation.

• Seismic and wind performance of structures
• Life-cycle behavior, durability and corrosion
• Microstructural effects on reliability
• Reliability of railway bridges and concrete buildings
