Stochastic analysis via robust optimization
… avenues have been suggested in the literature: stochastic analysis and optimization describing the uncertainty probabilistically and robust optimization describing the uncertainty deterministically. Instead, we propose a novel paradigm which leverages the conclusions of probability theory and …

Stochastic Analysis of Seismic Safety Against Liquefaction
Liquefaction of sand deposits during earthquakes is studied as a problem of random vibration of nonlinear-hysteretic systems. The random vibration results lead to the determination of the mean and standard deviation of the strong-motion duration of a random seismic loading with a given intensity …

Stochastic analysis of structures made of composite materials
A probabilistic methodology for the reliability analysis of composite rotor blades at the ply level was developed. The proposed methodology involves (i) the quantification of the uncertainties (physical, statistical and model) related to the material properties and the extreme aero-elastic loads …

Tractable stochastic analysis in high dimensions via robust optimization
… is currently the major tool for performance analysis in stochastic systems. While it offers insights in understanding such systems, probability theory, in contrast to optimization, has not been developed with computational tractability as an objective when the dimension increases. …

Asymptotic stochastic analysis of a gravity model for inertial navigation systems
Inertial navigation systems require a precise knowledge of gravity to function properly. The inability of models to account for the small amplitude, short wavelength components of the gravity field leads to errors which are frequently viewed as random; these random errors can introduce a …

Stochastic Analysis Of Storm-Surge Induced Infrastructure Losses In New York City
… used for the daily sea water levels (and the analysis is performed independently). It is found that the yearly maximum sea water levels at the Battery from 1920 to 2012 follow closely a generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution with a mean value of 10.72 feet and a COV of 10.07%. Then, …

Carbon permit prices in the European emissions trading system : a stochastic analysis
… a given range. This is accomplished through stochastic analysis simulation of a computable general equilibrium model of the world economy with country-level detail most of the key members of the original 15 member EU plus the 10 accession countries. Economic parameters treated as stochastic …

Stochastic analysis of longevity and investment risk in the context of life annuities
… risk. Particular attention is directed to stochastic modelling which allows the uncertainty of future projections to be incorporated. Hence, simulation methods are used to consider the distribution of the annuity cost, as well as the more often quoted point estimates. A theoretical …

Stochastic analysis of dense nonaqueous phase liquid dissolution in naturally heterogeneous subsurface systems
… subsurface systems is investigated using a stochastic approach that treats the variability of flow properties as three-dimensional random fields. A steady-state, quasi-static DNAPL saturation distribution in a source zone is derived, based on the previous research to describe the field-scale …

Stochastic Analysis of the Transport of Adsorbing Pollutants in Aquifers Having Spatially Variable Chemical Properties
"The results quantify the uncertainty in prediction of contaminant concentration at the leading and trailing edges of a plume. This has important implications for regulatory assessments for hazardous components which often require calculations of arrival times for low concentration values. Other …
