11. The verification and validation of a probabilistic risk analysis method for road tunnels
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för BrandteknikAbstract : In this thesis, a new probabilistic risk assessment tool for road tunnels has been verified and validated. The verification and validation were performed along with a literature review to find different key variables that affect the risk in a road tunnel and find out how these variables can be handled.

12. Worst Credible Process Fire: Experiences from the Norwegian Petroleum Industry
University essay from Lunds universitet/Riskhantering (CI); Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och SamhällssäkerhetAbstract : The term Worst Credible Process Fire (WCPF) was introduced to the Norwegian Petroleum Industry as a complement to the probabilistic approach to define design loads for offshore facilities. Currently there are mainly two documents about the WCPF being the SINTEF report (2017) and the definition in NORSOK S-001 (2018). READ MORE

13. Reliability – based analysis of embankment dams
University essay from KTH/ByggvetenskapAbstract : Embankment dams are widely used as water-retaining structures through the world. Two principal structural failure modes of embankment dams are internal erosion and slope instability. The objective of this thesis is to investigate the feasibility of applying probabilistic methods in embankment dam assessment. READ MORE

14. Numerical solution for derivative models using finite difference methods and how this can be used with Monte Carlo simulation
University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistikAbstract : Derivative models often come in the form of stochastic differential equations. From these equations a partial differential equation (PDE) can be derived. By discretizing the PDE the numerical solution is obtained on a form where the value of the derivative can be seen as a probabilistic weighting of future values. READ MORE
