Reducing Statistical Uncertainty in Elastic Settlement Analysis of Shallow Foundations Relying on Targeted Field Investigation: A Random Field Approach

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
The present paper deals with the practical problem of reducing statistical uncertainty in elastic settlement analysis of shallow foundations by relying on targeted field investigation with the aim of an optimal design.

Probabilistic Analysis of Power Assignments [PDF]

open access: yesRandom Structures & Algorithms, 2014
AbstractA fundamental problem for wireless ad hoc networks is the assignment of suitable transmission powers to the wireless devices such that the resulting communication graph is connected. The goal is to minimize the total transmit power in order to maximize the life‐time of the network.

The Effect of Targeted Field Investigation on the Reliability of Earth-Retaining Structures in Passive State: A Random Field Approach

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
In one of their recent works, the authors examined parametrically the effect of targeted field investigation on reducing statistical uncertainty in active state analysis of earth retaining structures based on 2165 different cases for each of the sliding ...

Probabilistic Mesoscale Analysis of Concrete Beams Subjected to Flexure

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2021
In this paper, the probabilistic behavior of plain concrete beams subjected to flexure is studied using a continuous mesoscale model. The model is two-dimensional where aggregate and mortar are treated as separate constituents having their own ...

Opinion on the impact of non‐monotonic dose responses on EFSA′s human health risk assessments

open access: yesEFSA Journal, 2021
This Opinion assesses the biological relevance of the non‐monotonic dose responses (NMDR) identified in a previous EFSA External Report (Beausoleil et al., 2016) produced under GP/EFSA/SCER/2014/01 and the follow‐up probabilistic assessment (Chevillotte ...

Probabilistic Reaction Time Analysis

open access: yesACM Transactions on Embedded Computing Systems, 2023
In many embedded systems, for instance, in the automotive, avionic, or robotics domain, critical functionalities are implemented via chains of communicating recurrent tasks. To ensure safety and correctness of such systems, guarantees on the reaction time, that is, the delay between a cause (e.g., an external activity or reading of a sensor) and the ...

Probabilistic Data Analysis with Probabilistic Programming

open access: yesCoRR, 2016
Probabilistic techniques are central to data analysis, but different approaches can be difficult to apply, combine, and compare. This paper introduces composable generative population models (CGPMs), a computational abstraction that extends directed graphical models and can be used to describe and compose a broad class of probabilistic data analysis ...

Performance analysis of probabilistic timed automata using digital clocks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Probabilistic timed automata, a variant of timed automata extended with discrete probability distributions, is a modelling formalism suitable for describing formally both nondeterministic and probabilistic aspects of real-time systems, and is amenable to
