The 8th International Conference on System Reliability and Safety
Sicily, Italy - November 20-22, 2024

Nicolae Brinzei, University of Lorraine, Research Center for Automatic Control of Nancy (CRAN)

 

Nicolae Brînzei received the Engineering Diploma in Manufacturing Engineering from the “Politehnica” University of Timisoara (Romania) and the M.S. and PhD. Degrees in Control and Computer Sciences from the University of Technology of Belfort-Montbéliard (France). Presently, he is associate professor at the University of Lorraine (France) His research work takes place at the Research Center for Automatic Control of Nancy (CRAN), a joint laboratory of UL and CNRS.
Dr Brînzei’s research focusses on the modelling and assessment of systems dependability and reliability by means of discrete event systems and probabilistic approaches. He develops approaches based on Boolean algebra and Hasse diagram for systems described by structure function, and Markov chains or stochastic Petri nets, in case of dynamical systems. He is also interested in dynamic reliability and develops works on stochastic hybrid automata and Monte-Carlo simulation.

He is also member of European Safety and Reliability Association (ESRA) and of French Institute of Risk Management (IMdR). Within them, he chairs the technical committee on “Mathematical Methods in Reliability and Safety” (ESRA) and the working group “Methodological research” (IMdR).
