<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) is a relatively new research area which describes the methods and approaches used to supply quantitative descriptions of the effects of uncertainty, variability and errors in simulation problems and models. It is rapidly becoming a field of increasing importance, with many real-world applications within statistics, mathematics, probability and engineering, but also within the natural sciences.</p> <p>Literature on the topic has up until now been largely based on polynomial chaos, which raises difficulties when considering different types of approximation and does not lead to a unified presentation of the methods. Moreover, this description does not consider either deterministic problems or infinite dimensional ones.</p> <p>This book gives a unified, practical and comprehensive presentation of the main techniques used for the characterization of the effect of uncertainty on numerical models and on their exploitation in numerical problems. In particular, applications to linear and nonlinear systems of equations, differential equations, optimization and reliability are presented. Applications of stochastic methods to deal with deterministic numerical problems are also discussed. Matlab(R) illustrates the implementation of these methods and makes the book suitable as a textbook and for self-study.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>...a deepening to the mathematics of uncertainty quantification and stochastic modeling through the tools of functional analysis...the perspective on UQ that runs through this book is firmly grounded in probability theory and Hilbert spaces; the elements of linear functional analysis and measure/probability theory are provided.<b> --Zentralblatt MATH</b></p>...an excellent introduction for newcomers and a practical reference for established practitioners...Practical techniques are illustrated by well-chosen and thoroughly worked-out examples. --<b>MAA Reviews</b><br>
