Abstract:
AbstractQuasi-Monte Carlo methods and stochastic collocation methods based on sparse grids have become popular with solving stochastic partial differential equations. These methods use deterministic points for multi-dimensional integration or interpolation without suffering from the curse of dimensionality. It is not evident which method is best, specially on random models of physical phenomena. We numerically study the error of quasi-Monte Carlo and sparse grid methods in the context of ground-water flow in heterogeneous media. In particular, we consider the dependence of the variance error o

Abstract:
Summary The least-squares Monte Carlo method (LSM) is a decision-evaluation method that can capture the value of flexibility of a process. This method was shown to provide us with some insight into the effect of uncertainty on decision making and to help us capture the upside potential or mitigate the downside effects for a chemical enhanced-oil-recovery (EOR) process. The method is a stochastic approximate dynamic programming approach to decision making. It is modeled after a forward simulation coupled with a recursive algorithm, which produces the near-optimal policy. It relies on Monte Carl

Abstract:
The present work demonstrates an efficient method for reliability analysis using sequential development of the stochastic response surface. Here, orthogonal Hermite polynomials are used whose unknown coefficients are evaluated using moving least square technique. To do so, collocation points in the conventional stochastic response surface method (SRSM) are replaced by the sparse grid scheme so as to reduce the number of function evaluations. Moreover, the domain is populated sequentially by the sparse grid based on the outcome of the optimization to find out the most probable failure point. He

Abstract:
AbstractWe present an efficient and robust method for stress wave propagation problems (second order hyperbolic systems) having discontinuities directly in their second order form. Due to the numerical dispersion around discontinuities and lack of the inherent dissipation in hyperbolic systems, proper simulation of such problems are challenging. The proposed idea is to denoise spurious oscillations by a post-processing stage from solutions obtained from higher-order grid-based methods (e.g., high-order collocation or finite-difference schemes). The denoising is done so that the solutions remai

Abstract:
Modeling uncertainties in the input parameters of computer simulations is an established way to account for inevitably limited knowledge. To overcome long run-times and high demand for computational resources, a surrogate model can replace the original simulation. We use spatially adaptive sparse grids for the creation of this surrogate model. Sparse grids are a discretization scheme designed to mitigate the curse of dimensionality, and spatial adaptivity further decreases the necessary number of expensive simulations. We combine this with B-spline basis functions which provide gradients and a
