Uncertainty Quantification In Computational Science: Theory And Application In Fluids And Structural Mechanics

by Sunetra Sarkar, Jeroen A S Witteveen

Overview

During the last decade, research in Uncertainty Quantification (UC) has received a tremendous boost, in fluid engineering and coupled structural-fluids systems. New algorithms and adaptive variants have also emerged.This timely compendium overviews in detail the current state of the art of the field, including advances in structural engineering, along with the recent focus on fluids and coupled systems. Such a strong compilation of these vibrant research areas will certainly be an inspirational reference material for the scientific community.
