MS Title:
Dynamic Reliability of Conceptual Dynamical Systems

Description:
Conceptual dynamical systems are simplified representations of some real-world systems whose state evolves with time over a state space according to a fixed rule, which can be found and used in many different fields. However, with the influence of internal mechanisms and external excitations, the conceptual dynamical system evolves many dynamical behaviors, which may cause risk to the system. Dynamic reliability are powerful mathematical frameworks that can constitute a more realistic modeling of systems for the purposes of reliability, risk and safety analysis, which have been of main concern to the engineering community. This task remains challenging since many uncertainties associated with the occurring time location and intensity of hazardous actions, as well as with the structural materials and systems. In view of this situation, the aim of this mini-symposium is addressing the advances on theories and methods of the reliability modeling, analysis and design in dynamical systems. The scope of the mini-symposium is broad, contributions related to the above topics and other pertinent topics are welcome.
