1. Risk-based ship security analysis : a decision-support approach
Sammanfattning : The protection of shipping does not come without hazards and threats for military forces, individual civilian ship operators and crews. With particular focus on security threats, this thesis is about how to prepare for such operations without introducing unnecessary risks, i.e., supporting conscious risk-taking related to ship security.

2. Sensitivity and Uncertainty Analysis Methods : with Applications to a Road Traffic Emission Model
Sammanfattning : There is always a need to study the properties of complex input–output systems, properties that may be very difficult to determine. Two such properties are the output’s sensitivity to changes in the inputs and the output’s uncertainty if the inputs are uncertain. LÄS MER
3. Handling severe uncertainty in strategic project appraisal : Methods and applications of context analysis
Sammanfattning : The long-term success or failure of a strategic project is largely shaped by its context. Therefore, the assessment of the external factors influencing the fulfilment of project long-term goals is vital for the effective project appraisal and planning. LÄS MER
4. Uncertainty, variability and environmental risk analysis
Sammanfattning : The negative effects of hazardous substances and possible measures that can be taken are evaluated in the environmental risk analysis process, consisting of risk assessment, risk communication and risk management. Uncertainty due to lack of knowledge and natural variability are always present in this process. LÄS MER
5. Robust analysis of uncertainty in scientific assessments
Sammanfattning : Uncertainty refers to any limitation in knowledge. Identifying and characterizing uncertainty in conclusions is important to ensure transparency and avoid over or under confidence in scientific assessments. Quantitative expressions of uncertainty are less ambiguous compared to uncertainty expressed qualitatively, or not at all. LÄS MER
