Summary on Grant Application Form
As we accelerate into the 21st century, our backbone engineering systems are becoming increasingly complex and connected. Many of our critical infrastructure ecosystems are comprised of interdependent sub-systems, each governed by complex non-linear dynamics and cascade interactions. The CoTRE project will build a mathematical mirror to the UK's critical infrastructure ecosystems. The "complexity twin" will be a world first attempt to understand the resilience of large-scale complex systems that increasingly face threats from man-kind and nature. The project will address the fundamental theoretical aspects of the stability of complex systems and work with a variety of critical infrastructure operators to develop short term and long term resilience investment strategies.
