The uncertainty of the in-plane mechanical properties of the laminate used in an aircraft wing structure is investigated. Global sensitivity analysis is used to identify the source of the uncertainties of the response performance. Due to the limitations of the existing global sensitivity analysis method for nonlinear models with correlated input variables, a new one using nonlinear regression is proposed. Furthermore, a contribution matrix is defined for engineering convenience. Two nonlinear numerical examples are employed in this article to demonstrate the ability of the proposed global sensitivity analysis method. After applying the proposed global sensitivity analysis method to the laminate model, the contribution matrices are obtained; from these matrices, researchers can identify the dominant variance contributions that contribute the most to the response variance. Factor analysis is then employed to analyze the global sensitivity analysis results and determine the most efficient methods to decrease the variances of the in-plane elastic constants. Monte Carlo simulation is used to demonstrate the efficiency of the methods in decreasing the variances.

<p>Hydraulic models are increasingly used to assess the flooding hazard. However, all numerical models are affected by uncertainties, related to model parameters, which can be quantified through Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) and Global Sensitivity Analysis (GSA). In traditional methods of UQ and GSA, the input parameters of the numerical models are considered to be independent which is actually rarely the case. The objective of this work is to proceed with UQ and GSA methods considering dependent inputs and comparing different methodologies. At our knowledge, there is no such application in the field of 2D hydraulic modelling.</p><p>At first the uncertain parameters of the hydraulic model are classified in groups of dependent parameters. Within this aim, it is then necessary to define the copulas that better represent these groups. Finally UQ and GSA based on copulas are performed. The proposed methodology is applied to the large scale 2D hydraulic model of the Loire River. However, as the model computation is high time-consuming, we used a meta-model instead of the initial model. We compared the results coming from the traditional methods of UQ and GSA (<em>i.e.</em> without taking into account the dependencies between inputs) and the ones coming from the new methods based on copulas. The results show that the dependence between inputs should not always be neglected in UQ and GSA.</p>
