Professor Sanchez-Silva's area of expertise is risk analysis and stochastic modeling to support the decision-making process in engineering under uncertain conditions. He works extensively on Probabilistic Risk Analysis (PRA) and approximate measures to estimate potential risks for infrastructure, network systems, and industrial facilities. Furthermore, he has experience in estimating risk in complex problems under conditions where information is partial, incomplete, and difficult to quantify. Finally, he has been involved in projects where socioeconomic and environmental contexts play a significant role and, therefore, traditional risk modeling and engineering methods can only be applied partially. Some of his current areas of research include the development of infrastructure systems (structures and lifelines); stochastic modeling of deteriorating systems and structures; flexibility, adaptability, and resilience of infrastructure; and decision-making for resource allocation and cost-effectiveness of investments in the design and operation of various types of facilities.
