Research Interests
Our research interests are
motivated by environmental concerns resulting from the large-scale hazards
of modern technology. The potential for these so-called man-made disasters
has been increasing rapidly in the past ten years as the economics of scale
push toward ever larger industrial facilities. Inadequately understood
manufacturing processes, and increasing proximity to humans, have led to
unprecedented accidents. Beyond the extensive damage, such major accidents
can be detrimental to the respective technologies themselves.
