Nominator's project description

Professor Chen is a globally leading researcher in stochastic mechanics and reliability theory, particularly in structural engineering. He has made ground-breaking contributions to time dependent reliability analysis of high-dimensional nonlinear stochastic systems, revealing physics of failure modes and being of significant value for design and decision making. During his stay in Germany, he will explore novel pathways for risk reduction and resilient design of complex infrastructure systems.
