Uncertainty in Regional-Scale Assessments of Non-Point Source Pollutants

TL;DR: In this paper, the three most commonly used methods for characterizing simulation uncertainties are discussed: sensitivity analysis, first-order analysis, and Monte Carlo analysis, with examples of each method are presented.

A Multistate Physics Model of Component Degradation Based on Stochastic Petri Nets and Simulation

TL;DR: A simulation model supported by a stochastic Petri net representing the multistate degradation process of a nuclear component undergoing stress corrosion cracking is built and the results are compared with those derived from the state-space enrichment Markov chain approximation method.

Sampling efficiency in Monte Carlo based uncertainty propagation strategies: Application in seawater intrusion simulations

TL;DR: It is illustrated that the use of optimized Latin hypercube sampling (OLHS) strategies instead of the widely employed simple random sampling (SRS) and Latin hyper cube sampling (L HS) strategies, can significantly improve sampling efficiency and hence decrease the simulation time of MCSs.

A Reliability Evaluation of Offshore HVDC Grid Configuration Options

TL;DR: In this paper, the reliability of different offshore grid design options for the connection of offshore wind power to shore is investigated using a sequential Monte Carlo-based technique that enables the investigation of realistic offshore phenomena, such as the weather dependency of component repair times.

Approximate probability propagation with mixtures of truncated exponentials

TL;DR: In this article, an approximate propagation algorithm for MTE networks is proposed based on the Penniless propagation method already known for discrete variables, and Markov Chain Monte Carlo is used to carry out the probability propagation.

Common Beliefs and Reality About PLS: Comments on Rönkkö and Evermann (2013)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors address Ronkko and Evermann's criticisms of the Partial Least Squares (PLS) approach to structural equation modeling and conclude that PLS should continue to be used as an important statistical tool for management and organizational research, as well as other social science disciplines.

A new study on reliability-based design optimization

TL;DR: This paper presents a general approach for probabilistic constraint evaluation in the reliability-based design optimization (RBDO), where the conventional reliability index approach (RIA) and the proposed performance measure approach (PMA) are identified as two special cases.
