NUTC Seminar Series: "Protective Decisions for Transportation Systems under a Changing Climate" | Professor Elise Miller-Hooks - George Mason
Northwestern University Transportation Center
4:00 PM
//
Lower Level - Ruan Conference Center, Chambers Hall
Details
Abstract:
From thawing sea ice to increased storm frequency and intensity, global warming is impacting societies, urban and rural alike, across the globe. Climate change is creating hazard conditions with permanent impact, as well as episodic and increasingly damaging disruption occurrences. It is threatening the sustainability of our built environment, including our roadways, maritime systems and supply chains. Additionally, the actions we take in response may exacerbate the conditions that led to their need, leading to knock-on effects. This talk describes optimization, real options and machine learning approaches designed for use in assessing, preparing for and recovering from climate-related extreme conditions and event occurrences posed to these systems.
