The Propagation of Errors (PE) and Monte-Carlo (MC) techniques are two major methods to predict the variability of a system. However, the formalism of PE can lead to an inaccurate estimate for systems that have parameters varying over a wide range. For the latter, the results give a direct estimate of the variance of the response, but for complex systems with many parameters, the number of trials necessary to yield an accurate estimate can be sizeable to the point the technique becomes impractical. The effectiveness of a designed experiment (orthogonal array) methodology, as employed in Taguchi Tolerance Design (TD) method to estimate variability in complex systems is studied. We use a linear elastic 3-point bending beam model and a nonlinear extended finite elements crack growth model to test and compare the PE and MC methods with the TD method. Results from an MC estimate, using 10,000 trials, serve as a reference to verify the result in both cases. We find that the PE method works suboptimal for a coefficient of variation above 5% in the input variables. In addition, we find that the TD method works very well with moderately sized trials of designed experiment for both models. Our results demonstrate how the variability estimation methods perform in the deterministic domain of numerical simulations and can assist in designing physical tests by providing a guideline performance measure.","PeriodicalId":52254,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Verification, Validation and Uncertainty Quantification","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139357521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the flow development is difficult to replicate in physical or numerical experiments. For this reason, the most attractive method for the mixing layer analysis is the direct numerical simulation (DNS), with the most control over the simulation inputs and free from modeling assumptions. However, the DNS cost often prevents conducting the sensitivity analysis of the simulation results to variations in the numerical procedure and thus, separating numerical and physical effects. In the current paper, effects of the computational domain dimensions on statistics collected from DNS of a spatially developing incompressible turbulent mixing layer are analyzed with the focus on determining the domain dimensions suitable for studying the flow asymptotic state. In the simulations, the mixing layer develops between two co-flowing laminar boundary layers formed on two sides of a sharp-ended splitter plate of a finite thickness with characteristics close to those of the un-tripped boundary layers in the experiments by J.

Formulating a low-dimensional approximation of these calibration functions allows modelers to use low-fidelity models to explore phenomena at lengths and time scales unattainable with their high-fidelity sources. While functional calibration methods are available for low-dimensional problems (e.g., one to three unknown calibration functions), exploring high-dimensional spaces of unknown calibration functions (e.g., more than ten) is still a challenging task due to its computational cost and the risk for identifiability issues. To address this challenge, we introduce a semiparametric calibration method that uses an approximate Bayesian computation scheme to quantify the uncertainty in the unknown calibration functions and uses this insight to identify what functions can be replaced with low-dimensional approximations. Through a test problem and a coarse-grained model of an epoxy resin, we demonstrate that the introduced method enables the identification of a low-dimensional set of calibration functions with a limited compromise in calibration accuracy. The novelty of the presented method is the ability to synthesize domain knowledge from various sources (i.e., physical experiments, simulation models, and expert insight) to enable high-dimensional functional calibration without the need for prior knowledge on the class of unknown calibration functions.","PeriodicalId":52254,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Verification, Validation and Uncertainty Quantification","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42600694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

HYPercomplex Automatic Differentiation (HYPAD) was used as a means to obtain accurate high-order partial derivatives from computational models such as finite element analyses. These sensitivities are used to construct a surrogate model of the output using a Taylor series expansion and subsequently used to estimate statistical moments (mean, variance, skewness, and kurtosis) and Sobol' indices using algebraic expansions. The uncertainty in a transient linear heat transfer analysis was quantified with HYPAD-UQ using first-order through seventh-order partial derivatives with respect to seven random variables encompassing material properties, geometry, and boundary conditions. Random sampling of the analytical solution and the regression-based stochastic perturbation finite element method were also conducted to compare accuracy and computational cost. The results indicate that HYPAD-UQ has superior accuracy for the same computational effort compared to the regression-based stochastic perturbation finite element method.

Given this expected material variability as well as the experimental challenges with small-scale mechanical testing, measurement uncertainties are needed for property values to be applied appropriately, and yet are uncommon in micro- and meso-scale tensile testing studies. In a separate paper we reported the elastic-plastic properties of 200 μm -thick freestanding films of LIGA-fabricated nanocrystalline Ni-10 %Fe and microcrystalline Ni-10 %Co, with specimen gauge widths ranging from 75 μm to 700 μm, and tensile tested at strain rates 0.001 s-1 and 1 s-1. The loads were applied by commercial miniature and benchtop load frames, and strain was measured by digital image correlation. In this paper we examine the measurement uncertainties in the ultimate tensile strength, apparent Young's modulus, 0.2 % offset yield strength, and strain hardening parameters. For several of these properties, the standard deviation cannot be interpreted as the statistical scatter because the measurement uncertainty was larger. Microplasticity affects the modulus measurement, thus we recommended measuring the modulus after cyclic loading. These measurement uncertainty issues might be relevant to similar works on small-scale tensile testing and might help the reader to interpret the discrepancies in literature values of mechanical properties for LIGA and electrodeposited films.","PeriodicalId":52254,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Verification, Validation and Uncertainty Quantification","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45822778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Energy Balance Method (EBM) is widely used to estimate the severity of steady-state Aeolian vibrations. Although the EBM requires some experimental characterization of system parameters (as indicated by international Standards), it is necessary to mention that such a procedure is connected with uncertainties which makes it difficult for the proper homologation of the cable systems. In this article, the parametric probabilistic approach is employed to quantify the level of uncertainty associated with the EBM in the study of Aeolian vibrations of OPGW. The relevant parameters of the EBM (damper properties, cable self-damping, and the power imparted by the wind) are assumed as random variables whose distribution is deduced by means of the Maximum Entropy Principle. Then a Monte Carlo simulation is performed, and the input and output uncertainties are contrasted. Finally, a global sensitivity analysis is conducted to identify the Sobol' indices. Results indicate that parameters related to self-damping and damper are the most influential on uncertainty and output variability. In this sense, the present framework constitutes a powerful tool in the robust design of damper systems for OPGW cables.","PeriodicalId":52254,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Verification, Validation and Uncertainty Quantification","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45213501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, a new method for assessing the validity of computational models is proposed based upon the probability of agreement (PoA) approach. The proposed method quantifies the probability that observed simulation and system response differences are small enough to be considered acceptable, and hence the two systems can be used interchangeably. Rather than relying on Boolean-based statistical tests and procedures, the distance-based probability of agreement validation metric (PoAVM) assesses the similarity of system responses used to predict system behaviors by comparing the distributions of output behavior. The corresponding PoA plot serves as a useful tool for summarizing agreement transparently and directly while accounting for potentially complicated bias and variability structures. A general procedure for employing the proposed computational model validation method is provided which leverages bootstrapping to overcome the fact that in most situations where computational models are employed, one's ability to collect real world data is limited. The new method is demonstrated and contextualized through an illustrative application based upon empirical data from a transient-phase assembly line manufacturing process and a discussion on its desirability based upon an established validation framework.","PeriodicalId":52254,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Verification, Validation and Uncertainty Quantification","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49082811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
