Hi All Just watched the recording of this session - a really good discussion. This week I am delivering reliability training in Trinidad and next week the same in Canada. When I cover the quantification of risk I refer back to Donald Rumsfeld The second point is where we typically operate in (Known Unknowns) and with "Black Swan" events in the Unknown Unknowns. and as infrastructure was discussed in the recording, I use the below example when covering risk and structural reliability I had the pleasure of speaking with Prof. David Spiegelhalter regarding risk perception - the following link provides some insight. https://plus.maths.org/content/os/issue55/features/risk/index Hope to join the next call in spite of time zone issues!!!!!!!
