BOSTON, MA, October 10, 2022 — ClimaTwin™, Climate Risk Analysis for Infrastructure Digital Twins™, is proud to participate in the Annual Committee Meeting of the Risk and Resilience Measurements Committee (RRMC) of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Infrastructure Resilience Division (IRD). Committee Co-Chairs Michael Beer and Hiba Baroud lead discussions with RRMC members, invited guest editors of Special Issues of the ASCE-ASME Journal of Risk and Uncertainty in Engineering Systems, and numerous other subject-matter-experts.
Initiatives of the ASCE IRD Risk and Resilience Measurements Committee include: research projects to develop theory and technology; working groups to solve specific challenges; industrial collaborations and show cases; working with authorities towards regulatory documents; contributions to codes and workshops; contributions to conferences; and, publications as technical reports and books. Further, special issues focus on the ASCE-ASME Journal of Risk and Uncertainty in Engineering Systems.
During the international committee meeting, Emin Aktan and Hiba Baroud review the Workshop on Resilience Research with NIST (U.S. Department of Commerce, National Institute of Standards and Technology). Further, Michael Beer and Yongbo Peng provide an update on conference activities, including ISRERM: International Symposium on Reliability Engineering and Risk Management and ICVRAM: International Conference on Vulnerability and Risk Analysis and Management.
The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Infrastructure Resilience Division (IRD) develops resources for improving the resilience of civil infrastructure and lifeline systems to all hazards. The IRD was established in 2014 to develop a unified approach to advancing the concepts of resilience within lifeline and infrastructure systems. Technical committee membership carries with it an obligation to participate actively in committee work through contribution of technical information.
