concurrentierisicos
Concurrentierisicos is a multidisciplinary concept used in risk analysis and system engineering to describe risks that arise from multiple, interacting factors occurring at the same time. The term is a neologism that reflects the study of how simultaneous hazards interact, amplify, or dampen each other within complex systems, rather than acting in isolation. It emphasizes interdependencies, nonlinearity, and potential cascading effects that can transform multiple small risks into a major event.
Origins and use: The concept has emerged from fields such as resilience engineering, systems thinking, and quantitative
Analytical approaches: Probabilistic risk assessment, multivariate statistics, Bayesian networks, copula models, fault and event tree analysis,
Applications: critical infrastructure protection (power grids, water systems), manufacturing and supply chains, financial risk management, health
Limitations and relation: It can be data-intensive and computationally demanding; risk of overfitting; requires interdisciplinary collaboration;
