Uncertainty Management for Robust Industrial Design in Aeronautics

Abstract

The application of uncertainty quantification (UQ) techniques in the daily engineering practice requires a toolchain that can be used intuitively by a wide range of design engineers. Ideally, this toolchain does not require detailed knowledge of the underlying UQ methods and is highly automated to ease the design tasks of the engineer using it. Such an automated chain is proposed in FINETM, where the user input is limited to the selection of the input uncertainties and a decision on the needed output. The steps of a fully automated UQ chain from simulation set-up, geometry modification, re-meshing and post-processing are detailed in this chapter.
