Analysis of linear mechanical structures with uncertainties by means of interval methods
Computer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2023 One of the simplest ways of representation of uncertain or inexact data, as well as inexact computations with them, is based on interval arithmetic. In this approach, an uncertain (real) number is represented by an interval (a continuous bounded subset)
