Construction of bootstrap confidence intervals on sensitivity indices computed by polynomial chaos expansion [PDF]
Sensitivity analysis aims at quantifying influence of input parameters dispersion on the output dispersion of a numerical model. When the model evaluation is time consuming, the computation of Sobol' indices based on Monte Carlo method is not applicable ...

Sensitivity analysis measures how changes in system inputs affect outputs. Previously, a large amount of sensitivity analysis research was relevant to the precise probability that is regarded as an ideal condition of engineering. Due to insufficient test samples and the low accuracy of test data, system reliability with hybrid uncertainty is difficult ...

Error by design: Methods for predicting device usability [PDF]
This paper introduces the idea of predicting ‘designer error’ by evaluating devices using Human Error Identification (HEI) techniques. This is demonstrated using Systematic Human Error Reduction and Prediction Approach (SHERPA) and Task Analysis For ...

Sensitivity of reliability-based fatigue analysis to crack shape development in cracked pipeline
Abstract An accurate prediction of crack shape development during fatigue propagation plays a key role in structural reliability assessment. To predict crack shape, aspect ratio variability (a/c; a: crack depth, c: half crack length) is wildly used and different correlations to estimate this later exist in literature. In this paper, reliability index

On Importance of Sensitivity Analysis on an Example of a k-out-of-n System
Reliability and sensitivity issues are very close and important problems in any technical system. The system’s sensitivity is understood as the dependence of its behavior on changes in some internal parameters.

The Positive Thinking Skills Scale: A Screening Measure for Early Identification of Depressive Thoughts [PDF]
Background Depression is currently considered the second leading cause of disability worldwide. Positive thinking is a cognitive process that helps individuals to deal with problems more effectively, and has been suggested as a useful strategy for coping

ABSTRACT Background The management of clinically apparent single lesions or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis, a facultative precursor of nephroblastoma, remains debated. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 37 patients with clinically apparent single or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis (two to three lesions per kidney) among 2347 patients registered between
