Abstract:
The discharge velocity, pressure difference and acceleration of underwater launch performance are affected by many factors, including depth, sailing speed, burning rate, water temperature, density and other operating parameters. The existing underwater launch sensitivity analysis is a local sensitivity qualitative analysis based on single-step perturbation analysis, which can only investigate the influence of a single uncertain factor on the model results in a small range. In this paper, based on the underwater launch model under multi-factor coupling, 10 input parameters were selected to calc

Abstract:
Dynamic building energy simulation and life cycle assessment (LCA) are useful ecodesign tools to mitigate the energy and environmental impacts of buildings. Various uncertain factors can affect the building energy and environmental modelling, including continuous and categorical factors (i.e., discrete factors without logical ranking). Sensitivity analysis (SA) is applied to identify the most influential factors on which additional research efforts are needed to increase the robustness of results.

Considering uncertainty in the decision-making process in river basin management is important because uncertainty is regarded as one of the main obstacles to sound decision-making. In case of high uncertainty, the risks of making a wrong decision could be quite high, which may have severe consequences.

Abstract:
Many hydrologic models have been developed to help manage natural resources all over the world. Nevertheless, most models have presented a high complexity regarding data base requirements, as well as, many calibration parameters. This has brought serious difficulties for applying them in watersheds where there is scarcity of data. The development of the Lavras Simulation of Hydrology (LASH) in a GIS framework is described in this study, which focuses on its main components, parameters, and capabilities.

Abstract:
To mitigate the incidence of waterlogging to livelihoods and property security, a combination of management measures has been necessary to achieve optimal benefits, reducing the risk caused by waterlogging to the development of the urban ecology. Thus, this study aims to analyze the sensitivity and sensitivity range of management measures under different rainfall conditions, focusing on establishing a foundation for their combined implementation. Based on different rainfall scenarios, the modified Morris method is employed to assess the sensitivity of key factors and subsequently determine the

The deformation behavior of rockfill is significant to the normal operation of concrete face rockfill dam. Considering both the nonlinear mechanical behavior and long-term rheological deformation, the E-ν model and modified Burgers model are coupled to describe the deformation behavior of the rockfill materials. The coupled E-ν and Burgers model contains numerous parameters with complex relationship, and an efficient and accurate inversion analysis is in demand. The sensitivity of the parameters in the coupled E-ν and modified Burgers is analyzed using the modified Morris method initially. The

Abstract To guide the design of the B-axis power-driven turret and improve its end accuracy, the geometric error model of its B-axis is established, and the sensitivity analysis of the error sources is completed. Firstly, based on the structure of the B-axis, six branch chains that can transfer the error sources of each component to the end error are decomposed. Then, the error modeling of the B-axis is transformed into error modeling for each branch chain. Secondly, the mapping relationship between the end position and orientation error and the error sources of each component is deduced using

Abstract. The present study focuses on identifying the parameters from the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model that strongly influence the simulation of tropical cyclones over the Bay of Bengal (BoB) region. Three global sensitivity analysis (SA) methods, namely, the Morris One-at-A-Time (MOAT), multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS), and surrogate-based Sobol', are employed to identify the most sensitive parameters out of 24 tunable parameters corresponding to seven parameterization schemes of the WRF model.

Background: Energy system optimisation models (ESOMs) are commonly used to support long-term planning at national, regional, or continental scales. The importance of recognising uncertainty in energy system modelling is regularly commented on but there is little practical guidance on how to best incorporate existing techniques, such as global sensitivity analysis, despite some good applications in the literature. Methods: In this paper, we provide comprehensive guidelines for conducting a global sensitivity analysis of an ESOM, aiming to remove barriers to adopting this approach. With a pedago

The ongoing changes in climate and the rapid pace of urbanization are contributing to an alarming increase in the prevalence of urban flooding, which is having a profound impact on the quality of life for residents and the smooth functioning of urban areas. The 1D–2D coupled model is an effective tool for simulating the process of urban flooding, thereby providing a scientific basis for urban planning, flood prevention, and mitigation strategies.
