This paper presents methods to facilitate system risk assessment and risk, allocation during the conceptual design of an engineering system. A key capability, cost vs. risk trade-off assessments, may be made through probabilistic optimization. In this paper a probabilistic optimization is performed for the geometry of a re-useable launch vehicle, in collaboration with researchers at NASA Langley Research Center.
