Robert T Sewell, Ph.D., PMP, Member of Board, Special Assignments, Advisor to Director
Dr. Robert T.
Sewell is an engineering
leader-executive with over 25
years of experience developing
and managing a diverse portfolio
of technology-based programs and
initiatives. Dr. Sewell's
specialty is the design and
implementation of robust
frameworks for risk management,
safety and reliability/quality
management, business
intelligence (BI), geo-spatial
intelligence (GsI), and
associated decision science and
advanced analysis/analytics as
applied to complex systems,
processes, networks, facilities,
infrastructure, and operations.
Dr. Sewell is particularly
experienced at developing
solutions to problems and
challenges that require
synthesis of multi-disciplined
knowledge (including associated
modeling [e.g.,
scientific/phenomenological
models, engineering models, and
business models], analysis and
simulation, and evaluation of
uncertainties) involving the
various interfaces and
influences of stochastic human,
natural, and/or emergent
behaviors for systems where
performance-based measurement
and/or management are desired.
Dr. Sewell received his Ph.D. in
engineering from Stanford
University, with emphasis in
earthquake engineering,
probabilistic engineering
mechanics, performance-based
engineering, and associated risk
and decision science. |

Dr.
Sewell's applied expertise
encompasses deep experience
with the life-cycle safety
management,
performance-based
assessment, and decision
making for structures,
energy systems (e.g.,
nuclear, petroleum, LNG),
lifeline systems/networks
(e.g., transportation,
communication, IT), and
other mission-critical
facilities (e.g., data
centers and computing
systems, global corporate
facilities), important
infrastructure, and
operations (e.g.,
engineering processes,
business/corporate
processes, global facility
management) in the face of
natural and man-caused
threats. A consistent
element and strength in Dr.
Sewell's work involves the
mining and application of
engineering data and
advanced analysis, business
intelligence and geo-spatial
intelligence. In addition to
several other international
programs and clients, Dr.
Sewell has served as
principal
consultant/specialist,
principal investigator and
program lead for the US
Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (USNRC), the
Swiss Nuclear Safety
Inspectorate (ENSI), the
International Atomic Energy
Agency (IAEA), and other
international nuclear safety
organizations and national
laboratories. Dr. Sewell has
also served in like capacity
for several major oil
companies, IT companies,
risk management
organizations, and insurance
companies. Dr. Sewell has
conceived and led a number
of research projects funded
by the Electric Power
Research Institute (EPRI),
the USNRC, the National
Science Foundation (NSF),
the California Geological
Survey (CGS), the US
Geological Survey (USGS),
and US national
laboratories, and has
developed and provided
formal training courses
sponsored by the IAEA,
UNESCO, USGS, AEG
(Association of Engineering
Geologists), ASCE (American
Society of Civil Engineers),
SCEC (Southern California
Earthquake Center), and ENSI.
Dr. Sewell has also designed
and developed a number of
commercial software packages
for performance-based
engineering and
risk/decision analytics.
Dr.
Sewell is President of R.T.
Sewell Associates. Based on
his expertise and
backgrounnd, Dr. Sewell
advises
CivTek International
on methods to measure,
analyze and manage elements
of uncertainty and sources
of potential chaos to help
insure the desired
performance of the solutions
and projects that
CivTek undertakes
and manages on behalf of its
clients. As an invited
member of
CivTek's Board of
Directors, Dr. Sewell
advises
CivTek's top
management on realization of
CivTek's vision and
effective implementation of
its mission statement.
Additionally, Dr. Sewell
participates in the
development and fulfillment
of joint initiatives and
execution of joint
engineering programs with
CivTek. |
