5 Stochastic Systems: Historical Perspectives Types of Uncertainties Epistemic uncertainty - due to lack of knowledge Can be reduced by collecting more data Mathematical tools are not well developed trade-off with aleatory uncertainty Aleatory uncertainty - inherent variation of physical system Can not be reduced Has highly developed mathematical tools Deterministic Epistemic uncertainty Aleatory uncertainty Heisenberg principle
6 Stochastic Systems: Historical Perspectives Ergodicity Exchange ensemble averages for time averages Is elasto-plastic-damage response ergodic? Can material elastic-plastic-damage statistical properties be obtained by temporal averaging? Will elastic-plastic-damage statistical properties "renew" at each occurrence? Are material elastic-plastic-damage statistical properties statistically independent? Important assumptions must be made and justified
7 Stochastic Systems: Historical Perspectives Historical Overview Brownian motion, Langevin equation PDF governed by simple diffusion Eq. (Einstein 1905) With external forces Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov (FPK) for the PDF (Kolmogorov 1941) Approach for random forcing relationship between the autocorrelation function and spectral density function (Wiener 1930) Approach for random coefficient Functional integration approach (Hopf 1952), Averaged equation approach (Bharrucha-Reid 1968), Numerical approaches, Monte Carlo method

9 Uncertainties in Material Material Behavior Inherently Uncertainties Spatial variability Point-wise uncertainty, testing error, transformation error (Mayne et al. (2000)
10 Uncertainties in Material Soil Uncertainties and Quantification Natural variability of material (for soil, Fenton 1999) Function of material formation process Testing error (for soil, Stokoe et al. 2004) Imperfection of instruments Error in methods to register quantities Transformation error (for soil, Phoon and Kulhawy 1999) Correlation by empirical data fitting (for soil, CPT data friction angle etc.)
11 Uncertainties in Material Probabilistic material (Soil Site) Characterization Ideal: complete probabilistic site characterization Large (physically large but not statistically) amount of data Site specific mean and coefficient of variation (COV) Covariance structure from similar sites (e.g. Fenton 1999) Moderate amount of data Bayesian updating (e.g. Phoon and Kulhawy 1999, Baecher and Christian 2003) Minimal data: general guidelines for typical sites and test methods (Phoon and Kulhawy (1999)) COVs and covariance structures of inherent variability COVs of testing errors and transformation uncertainties.
12 Uncertainties in Material Recent State-of-the-Art Governing equation Dynamic problems Mü + Cü + Ku = φ Static problems Ku = φ Existing solution methods Random r.h.s (external force random) FPK equation approach Use of fragility curves with deterministic FEM (DFEM) Random l.h.s (material properties random) Monte Carlo approach with DFEM CPU expensive Perturbation method a linearized expansion!
