Section Description

Data & Uncertainty Analysis: This course will introduce students to data screening and uncertainty analysis principles that can be applied to data collection and models in engineering disciplines. In the first part of the course, we will introduce the definitions and the basic concept of errors (reading, calibration, and propagation) in data collection, source of errors, error limits, and techniques to identify and represent deterministic and stochastic components in data. The second part of the course will focus on the practical application of sensitivity analysis to identify and quantify variable contributions in complex models. We will use datasets and computational tools throughout the course, including spreadsheets, programming languages, and applications.
