Prof. Hans Rudolf Heinimann is FRS Project Leader
“Future Resilient Systems” (FRS) is a research project under the Singapore-ETH Centre (SEC) to address the challenges with critical infrastructure systems that provide essential services to modern societies, which is of particular importance to innovation-driven economies like Singapore and Switzerland.
The FRS approaches infrastructure from a socio-technical system perspective, integrating engineered, operational, and user subsystems, thereby building bridges between disciplines and patterns of thought. Bringing together Switzerland-based ETH Zurich (ETH) and Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), and Singapore-based National University of Singapore (NUS), Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and Singapore Management University (SMU), the FRS provides a cross-disciplinary, cross-cultural environment to jointly explore approaches to make critical infrastructure systems more robust and resilient.
