Global sensitivity analysis: an approach based on the contribution to the sample mean plot
نویسندگان
چکیده
The contribution to the sample mean plot, originally proposed by Sinclair (1993), is revived and further developed as practical tool for global sensitivity analysis. The potentials of this simple and versatile graphical tool are discussed. Beyond the qualitative assessment provided by this approach, a statistical test is proposed for sensitivity analysis. A case study that simulates the transport of radionuclides through the geosphere from an underground disposal vault containing nuclear waste (OECD 1993) is considered as a benchmark. The new approach is tested against a very efficient sensitivity analysis method based on state dependent parameter meta-modelling (Ratto et al. 2007).

متن کاملSensitivity analysis using contribution to sample variance plot: Application to a water hammer model
This paper presents ‘‘contribution to sample variance plot’’, a natural extension of the ‘‘contribution to the sample mean plot’’, which is a graphical tool for global sensitivity analysis originally proposed by Sinclair. These graphical tools have a great potential to display graphically sensitivity information given a generic input sample and its related model realizations. The contribution t...
متن کاملCombined Use of Sensitivity Analysis and Hybrid Wavelet-PSO- ANFIS to Improve Dynamic Performance of DFIG-Based Wind Generation
In the past few decades, increasing growth of wind power plants causes different problems for the power quality in the grid. Normal and transient impacts of these units on the power grid clearly indicate the need to improve the quality of the electricity generated by them in the design of such systems. Improving the efficiency of the large-scale wind system is dependent on the control parameter...
متن کاملInvestigation for an Approach to Optimise the Structure of Human Force
Abstract This paper proposes an approach to find an optimum structure for educational levels of human forces. To this end, a Linear Programming (LP) Model integrated with a Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) was employed. The integrated model was employed using the SAM of Golestan Province of Iran. It was demonstrated that when unemployment is the result of inconsistency between supply and demand...
متن کاملThe effectiveness of skills training based on emotion-oriented approach on anxiety sensitivity and emotion control of women affected by extramarital relationships
The purpose of this research was to determine the effectiveness of teaching skills based on an emotion-oriented approach to anxiety sensitivity and controlling the emotions of women affected by extramarital relationships. This research was a semi-experimental type with a pre-test, post-test, and control group with a follow-up phase for two months. The statistical population included all women a...
