Model uncertainty in risk analysis
How can we project uncertainty about model variable(s) X through a function f to characterize the uncertainty about Y = f (X) when f itself has not been precisely characterized? Although the general problem of how to quantitatively express and project model uncertainty though mathematical calculations in a risk analysis can be addressed by only a few strategies, all of which seem either dubious...

متن کاملUncertainty Techniques in Environmental Risk Assessment
How much does a chemical present a real risk to human and environment? The goal of risk assessment is to estimate the likelihood and the extent of adverse effects occurring to man, animals or ecological systems due to possible exposure(s) to substances. The assessment of whether a substance presents a risk to organisms in the environment is based on the comparison of a predicted environmental c...
متن کاملRoughness uncertainty analysis in river flooding using HEC-RAS model
Although flood maps based on the deterministic approach play an important role in minimizing flood losses, there is considerable uncertainty in calculating the level of water inundation. Roughness is a key parameter in water surface elevation. Since roughness is not easily measurable and is estimated based on experimental and laboratory methods, it introduces a significant degree of uncertainty...
متن کاملModels and model uncertainty in the context of risk analysis
This paper addresses the concept of model uncertainty within the context of risk analysis. Though model uncertainty is a topic widely discussed in the risk analysis literature, no consensus seems to exist on its meaning, how it should be measured, or its impact on the application of analysis results in decision processes. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to clarification. The first pa...
