B. John Garrick.[1] (March 5, 1930 – November 1, 2020) was an American engineer known for his contributions to the field of risk sciences, particularly in probabilistic risk assessment (PRA). His work influenced safety protocols and risk management practices across various industries. He introduced the use of probability theory to quantify the risk of nuclear power. Late in life, he contributed to the development and application of the risk sciences to quantify the risk of catastrophic events of natural and anthropogenic systems for the protection of society and the environment.
