As an example, with an uncertainty of 0.1 mm the errors are reduced to 0.2%, 0.2%, and 1%, i.e., smaller than random errors, if measurements are carried out between 20 and 45 mm.
Predicting the probability of failure of loaded components with complex shape for example is associated with uncertainty related to: the type of existing flaws initiating fracture, the size distributions of the flaws, the locations and the orientations of the flaws and the microstructure and its local properties.
We also provide some explicit examples of ways to deal with uncertainty in data [1,2].
As an example, rapeseed biofuel production assessed with uncertainty analysis showed that life cycle GHG savings compared to diesel are not significant, even though results neglecting uncertainties would suggest they are [37].
We suggest that the way geothermal energy use is organized can serve as a typical example of coping with uncertainties in ongoing energy transitions.
This paper undertakes an economic assessment of how this trade-off between flexibility and stability has been addressed in practice, focussing on a case study of the European and German bioenergy policy mix which serves as a prime example for the challenges of dealing with uncertainty (e.g. regarding land use impacts, GHG balances, cost developments).
For example, our participants expected a reward with uncertainty.
Boldface = parameters with uncertainty distributions in the example.
For example, communications can provide information to deal with uncertainty or reassurance and changes to the care to remedy dissatisfaction.
Interviewers score an applicant in a range of dimensions, including for example empathy towards others, communication skills, and coping with uncertainty.
