Preliminary Assessment of Debris Flow Hazard in a Catchment under Extreme Condition

Due to hilly terrain and frequent heavy rainstorms, debris flow is one of the most common and catastrophic hazards in Hong Kong. To mitigate the debris flow risk, prediction of the magnitude and consequence of debris flow is essential. The objective of this paper is to simulate debris flow hazards in a study area in Hong Kong. Assessment of the...

Utilizing Uncertainty Multidisciplinary Design Optimization for Conceptual Design of Space Systems

With progress of space technology and increase of space mission demand, requirements for robustness and reliability of space systems are ever-increasing. For the whole space mission life cycle, the most important decisions are made in the conceptual design phase, so it is very crucial to take uncertainties into consideration in this initial...
