TL;DR: Regression analysis provides the most comprehensive sensitivity measure and is commonly utilized to build response surfaces that approximate complex models.
Abstract: Mathematical models are utilized to approximate various highly complex engineering, physical, environmental, social, and economic phenomena. Model parameters exerting the most influence on model results are identified through a ‘sensitivity analysis’. A comprehensive review is presented of more than a dozen sensitivity analysis methods. This review is intended for those not intimately familiar with statistics or the techniques utilized for sensitivity analysis of computer models. The most fundamental of sensitivity techniques utilizes partial differentiation whereas the simplest approach requires varying parameter values one-at-a-time. Correlation analysis is used to determine relationships between independent and dependent variables. Regression analysis provides the most comprehensive sensitivity measure and is commonly utilized to build response surfaces that approximate complex models.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present 10 less-obvious, but very important, reasons for nitinol's success, both past and future, including the quickly growing and technologically demanding stent applications.
Abstract: Superelastic nitinol is now a common and well-known engineering material in the medical industry. While the greater flexibility of the alloy drives many of the applications, there are actually a large number of lesser-known advantages of nitinol in medical devices. This paper reviews 10 of these less-obvious, but very important, reasons for nitinol’s success, both past and future. Several new medical applications will be used to exemplify these points, including the quickly growing and technologically demanding stent applications. Stents are particularly interesting in that they involve new and complex manufacturing techniques, present a demanding and interesting fatigue environment, and most interestingly, take advantage of the thermoelastic hysteresis of nitinol.
