Dynamic effects: how dynamic risk assessment techniques can inform safety compliance Dynamic risk assessment is often seen as only applying to very particular circumstances such as the emergency services.

Supply chains consist of heterogeneous subsystems with complex relationships, requiring collective effort and constraint based optimization.
