On the Need to Determine Accurately the Impact of Higher-Order Sensitivities on Model Sensitivity Analysis, Uncertainty Quantification and Best-Estimate Predictions

This work aims at underscoring the need for the accurate quantification of the sensitivities (i.e., functional derivatives) of the results (a.k.a. “responses”) produced by large-scale computational models with respect to the models’ parameters, which are seldom known perfectly in practice. The large...
