    The Art and Science Behind Successful Product Launches

    Edited by N. R. Srinivasa Raghavan, John A. Cafeo ...
    Series series Springer Nature Proceedings excluding Computer Science
    1 Background Uncertainty can be considered as the lack of adequate information to make a decision. It is important to quantify uncertainties in mathematical models used for design and optimization of nondeterministic engineering systems. In general, - certainty can be broadly classi?ed into three types (Bae et al. 2004; Ha-Rok 2004; Klir and Wierman 1998; Oberkampf and Helton 2002; Sentz 2002). ... Read more
