Ph.D. student Alice Nanyanzi, co-advised by Sridhar Radhakrishnan, explored the links across information and physical layers using causal failure relationships. With this representation, she modeled how weaponized disinformation can be used by an adversary to disrupt physical infrastructures. Reliability Engineering and System Safety.
Joaquin de la Barra, a Ph.D. student with Ahti Salo at Aalto University, developed a multicriteria decision analysis approach to identify cost-efficient portfolios of actions to fortify the components of an infrastructure network, with application to the failure of railway switches at a Finnish railway station. Reliability Engineering and System Safety.
Ph.D. graduate Nafiseh Ghorbani Renani developed hybrid algorithms by integrating exact and heuristic solution techniques to solve difficult tri-level optimization problems. Her particular application dealt with protection-interdiction-restoration formulations to model interdependent infrastructure network resilience. Journal of Heuristics.
