This book reviews and presents several approaches to advanced decision-making models for safety and risk assessment. Each introduced model provides case studies indicating a high level of efficiency, robustness, and applicability, which allow readers to utilize them in their understudy risk-based assessment applications. The book begins by introducing a novel dynamic DEMATEL for improving safety management systems. It then progresses logically, dedicating a chapter to each approach, including advanced FMEA with probabilistic linguistic preference relations, Bayesian Network approach and interval type-2 fuzzy set, advanced TOPSIS with spherical fuzzy set, and advanced BWM with neutrosophic fuzzy set and evidence theory. This book will be of interest to professionals and researchers working in the field of system safety and reliability and postgraduate and undergraduate students studying applications of decision-making tools and expert systems.

Reliability Assessment and Optimization of Complex Systems delves into a range of tools and techniques for designing optimized complex systems. Each chapter explores system modeling and the implementation of various metaheuristics for optimization purposes. This book provides readers in the domain of applied mathematics with a comprehensive understanding of system reliability analysis and improvement, thereby offering substantial value to their knowledge and expertise. System reliability has become the paramount attribute of any production unit. The process of maximizing system reliability while adhering to multiple constraints is referred to as reliability optimization.There are two primary approaches to enhancing a system's performance and reliability: developing a product with reduced failures (failure avoidance) or incorporating resilience to ensure the system continues functioning even in the event of a failure (fault tolerance). - Explains the process and application of reliability-based design optimization - Covers many metaheuristic approaches such as reliability, cost, and the MTTF of the system - Provides the workings and applications of multi-objective optimizations
