Adaptive Sparse Grid Approaches to Polynomial Chaos Expansions for Uncertainty Quantification

<p>Polynomial chaos expansions provide an efficient and robust framework to analyze and quantify uncertainty in computational models. This dissertation explores the use of adaptive sparse grids to reduce the computational cost of determining a polynomial model surrogate while examining and imp...
