Research Interests

System risk assessment and design (multiphysics, multicomponent, and multiscale systems); prognostic health monitoring; Verification & Validation (V&V); Bayesian Information Toolkit (BIT); Bayesian reliability analysis and design.

Vita

Dr. Youn's current research includes risk-based design, prognostics, stochastic defect mechanics, and Bioinspired design and has led to several notable awards including an ASME DETC Black & Decker Best Paper Award (2001) and ISSMO/Springer Prize for a Young Scientist (2004).

Education

Ph.D., University of Iowa, 2001
